Strength:

Good color rendering, doesn''t distort the view. Great peripheral vision. Smith is again up to par with their venting and straps.

Weakness:

Bad fit to some helmets. Perhaps a peculiar combination here, some of you may have better fit. I wear glasses so that may also be a factor. Other than this weird fit, the goggles deserve a 5

Generally lukewarm about this pair of goggles. Technically the V3 specs out well on paper, platinum lens, no-fog venting, easy to use buckle strap. Somehow I didn''t like the fit on my face when combined with a helmet. Alone, the goggles are great, fitting against my face and looking phat to boot. But when used with a helmet (Giro 9) the sides bunch up against the ear flaps and leaves a gap between the top and my forehead. Tried it with my other helmet (Briko) with the same results. It didn''t fit as well possibly due to the deep curve of the lens and the ovoid shape of each end.
