The new 2009 509 goggles are now in stock!

[03rmking]

I've been holding out on placing my order till I get a look at those Black Bandana goggles. I think they could look totally sweet! Any idea when us snowesters might get a peek at those bad boys?

We have the frames in stock, just waiting on the strap which is late. But I will say, perhaps the best looking goggle of the 09 lineup. I will be wearing them. The bandana print is almost a metallic silver. I'll try and get pics up soon.


Sled-fiend, definitely go with the plain yellow for low light/fog days.

I will be ordering a pair, but what would you consider the "amber" tint. The yellow or the orange lense? I think amber is the best lense for the overcast days.

i wore them all of last year and were hands down better than any other goggle i have ever used, never fogged up unless you were standing still w/ your helmet on for long periods of time, even then the didnt hardly fog up at all. we just got our 09 shipment in today and i might have to get a pair they fit in my helmet way better than last years

Ok, sweet good to know. Thanks. I only have to stop with the goggles on for one minute, and they will fog. That's very annoying. Sounds like these are better then, Might have to give then a try.

They worked real well for me but as for NEVER fogging I dont think there is such a thing. If I got pounding snow in helmet then went into trees you will get fogging if your have been working it. But they are better than anything else out there IMO. Real nice pair of goggles!

Yeah I wouldn't expect any goggles to NEVER fog. But mine are just pathetic. I bought an expensive pair on the basis that they are fogproof. Yeah right. My friends all use cheap smiths, and scott goggles, and they never fog. I bought the expensive ones, and they do. lol Might have to give the 509's a try, see if they do better.

That would be our orange tint lens. But i think if you try a plain yellow, you'll find it does work better than the orange on overcast days.

They will soon. Just need to run out there. I'll try and do that this week.

And keep those club/org nominations coming. Alot of worthy causes so far.

Should know within a few weeks and if all goes well, i'm shooting for a mid season release. They will be an optional accessory. Not standard with any goggles for the time being.

Got my goggles in the mail today.
Looks great.

Put up a post when you get the polarized lenses.

They come with yellow tint with chrome finish lens. Not aware of any dealers in Kalispell. However any powersports dealer can order them from WPS. Walk in and tell them to order up some

You would have hated to see the disappointment on my face boxing day morning when I logged onto snowest and did not see a boxing day discount on your 09 509 goggles... *sigh* That and I spent too much at christmas so I can't spring for a new pair right this minute. For shame!

Anyone know if all the lenses interchange from 2008 to 2009 models? Want to order another pair and some lenses, but not sure on the fitment?

 

[03rmking]

The 08 lenses will fit in the 09 frames. However the 09 lenses will not fit in the 08 frames (too thick). We stock both styles and you can specify when ordering.

The lenses don't interchange from '08 to '09 but when you order lenses, you can specify which year underneath where you specify which color. I just ordered a 3 pack of '08's just tonite after PMing Tom.

Or what Tom just said.

I think the 08 lenses fit in the 09 frame but not vice versa.

Yeah... we have 4 pair of the 08 frames and had ordered 09 lenses but didn't fit so that's what I meant. We're keeping the 09 lenses and before too long we'll order some new frames. You can't have too many pair of goggles, right?
