POC Lobes Goggles 2013

Comments about POC Lobes Goggles 2013:

The POC lenses are stylish, and do not fog, even in extreme conditions.

However, after about one week's use, the outside film started to peel/flake off. At first, this was just in isolated 'dots'. However, after a few further days, these 'dots' started joining up to form large blotches. The discolouration was extreme, as these blotches did not filter light, and the other parts of the lens did. So the end result was very distracting and bordering on dangerous as the eye had to adjust to vastly different light filters as new objects came into view (think TV cameras at the football having to adjust to the ball moving to and from shaded parts of the field).

The POC website suggests that there was an isolated issue with a 2011/12 batch, but my goggles were 2012/13. So I'm not sure that this is an isolated incident.

Was looking at the POC iris and found the lobes. Fit my skull comp helmet perfect. No noise or leaks at speed. Strap sits tight on helmet surface. Field of vision the best! I heard some complaints about lens scrathes ... These are precise instruments so read the care directions and take care of them. I have had no problems.

Service and delivery comments:

It took a while before the product arrived...when it arrived it was scratched due to poor packaging. I returned it straight away but did not receive money back yet!
Thanks for checking on it!

I'be been using the LOBES for three seasons now and this is the best goggle/lens combo I've owned. The coverage is excellent, as I demand good peripheral vision and the comfort across the bridge of my not nominal nose is very good without any pinching. I own three different lenses now and often carry another with me in case of lighting changes but I've found that even the lighter (Pink) lens which works great in low light/snowstorms to work fine in high light as well. Likewise, with my darkest lens, even when it snowed, I could see very well still. Peripheral vision is crucial for me as I course across the fall line and worry about downhillers catching up to me so the great side view helps keep me alive! The color choices are all really cool and the toughest choice in deciding which google to get. The LOBES works and looks great with my POC SYNAPSIS helmet with the visor as well.
