He set a world record in 2008 for the highest ski air on a quarterpipe, lunging at the clouds with a vertical launch of 35 feet and leaving bystanders with sore necks and dropped jaws. Everything about pro freeskier Simon Dumont is bigger than life, including his personal style, and you'll find it all over the Signature Series edition of the Oakley Splice Snow Goggle - Simon Dumont. The art is worthy of a champion who has medaled in SuperPipe every year since 2004, a podium regular in slopestyle and big air who was named "one of the most important faces in skiing today" by Powder Magazine. With Splice, you'll experience the unbelievable comfort of our skeletal support system. It took a ton of anatomical engineering, and the end result is a unique architecture that spans the entire nasal area. The internal support system reduces pressure on the nose by tuning the distribution of contact forces across critical zones. As if that's not enough, it also maximizes airflow. The support system works with O MATTER frame material that remains flexible even in extreme cold. Combined with moisture wicking triple-layer fleece foam and strap outriggers that evenly balance pressure, the system makes this design one of the most comfortable goggles ever created for winter sports. Splice has an interchangeable lens design that features semi-flush lens mounting, a means of optimizing downward visibility. Side-to-side vision is also maximized. Our designers matched optical innovations in lens contouring with structural refinements, so even the strap outriggers are engineered to stay out of the way and help maintain a panoramic view with wide-open peripheral vision. The Oakley tech team went even further, devising a way to eliminate the keyhole structures that normally come with interchangeable lens designs. The process of lens changing has never been faster or more efficient. All Splice lenses are dual vented and feature Oakley's F3 anti-fog technology. Pure PLUTONITE lens material filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB and UVC while offering unrivaled impact protection. Interchangeable lenses for Oakley Splice goggles come in performance colors with premium options. All Splice lenses feature the unbeatable clarity of HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS. This special edition comes with your choice of lens color: Fire IRIDIUM or Persimmon. With a permanent coating that balances light transmission, our Fire IRIDIUM lens is designed for bright light. When skies are overcast, Persimmon is a performance essential. Both lens colors are formulated to increase visual contrast and boost depth perception.
