ABSTRACT:
Goggles for use in cold weather, high speed outdoor sports, in conjunction with an insulating hood having a facial opening, are configured to receive the hood around the facial opening, to prevent the hood from obstructing the wearer's vision. The goggles are preferably configured with an outer frame incorporating a lens, an inner frame bearing against the wearer's face, with the outer and inner frames spaced apart to receive the hood at least partially around the facial opening. With the present invention it is possible to remove the insulating hood without displacing the goggles from the wearer's face. In the prior art, it was necessary to remove or otherwise displace the goggles, to allow removal or adjustment of the insulating hood.
