Product details

Okanagan ski days can swing from bluebird sun to thick fog and flat light at Big White, sometimes in the same afternoon. The Giro Article II is built to handle both. It comes with two Toric VIVID lenses with Optics by ZEISS®: a main lens for sunny and mixed conditions, plus a bonus VIVID Infrared lens for low light and storms. The Quick-Change Lens System makes swapping between them faster than ever. Giro's Expansion View (EXV) frame trims down the rim and adds frameless zones for wide peripheral vision, while EVAK vents release moisture to help prevent fogging on long days at Silver Star or Big White.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

The Article II is for skiers and snowboarders who want premium optics and one goggle that covers every condition, from November openings to spring closing days. It's especially useful in the Okanagan, where flat light and fog can roll in quickly, since the bonus low-light lens is always on hand. If you want a wide field of view in a low-profile frame and like the idea of switching lenses in seconds, the Article II is a strong pick.

FAQ
 
Q1: How do I find the right size Giro Article II goggle?
The Article II is offered in a single frame size [VERIFY: frame size/fit category]. A well-fitting goggle should seal evenly against your face with no pressure points or gaps, and the foam should sit comfortably on your cheekbones and nose. The best way to check is to try it on with your helmet in-store.

Q2: Is the Giro Article II compatible with my helmet?
Giro designs the Article II for seamless compatibility with all Giro helmets. It also works with many other brands' helmets, but fit depends on the helmet's brow shape and goggle clip. Bring your helmet in and our staff will check for gaps between the goggle and helmet. 

Q3: What VLT% lens should I choose for Okanagan conditions?
VLT (visible light transmission) is the percentage of light a lens lets through. A lower VLT is better for bright, sunny days, and a higher VLT is better for flat light, fog and storms. Giro's VIVID lineup ranges from darker tints like Jet Black and Onyx for full sun, to mid-range tints like Royal, Rose Gold, Copper, Emerald and Ember for mixed clouds, to Infrared for overcast and stormy days. For the Okanagan, where Big White and Silver Star often see fog and flat light, the Article II's bonus VIVID Infrared lens is a big advantage. Every Giro lens filters 100% of harmful UV.
