The most important upgrade: perfect vision with the right replacement lenses
The lens is the heart of your goggles. Replacing the lens is the simplest and most effective way to adapt your ski goggles to changing light conditions and extend their life.
Why a replacement lens?
Wear, adjustment, and performance Lens are wear parts. Stone chips, branches, and cleaning after muddy rides inevitably leave scratches. A scratched lens not only reduces visibility but can also cause dangerous glare in backlight conditions. In addition, different weather conditions require different tints for optimal contrast vision.
The guide to tints
Which lens for which weather? Choosing the right tint is crucial for your performance and safety. Here is an overview to help you make the right decision:
| Type of lens | Features & properties | Ideal conditions |
|---|---|---|
| Clear | Absolutely neutral, uncolored vision. Maximum light transmission. | Low light, twilight, night driving, heavily overcast days, driving in dense forest. |
| Tinted | Reduces brightness like sunglasses. Reduces eye fatigue. | Bright sunlight, open terrain, days with little cloud cover. |
| Mirrored | Strongest reduction of glare and reflections. Gives a striking racing look. | Bright sunlight, driving along the water, snow or in very bright sand deserts. |
| Contrast enhancing | Filters out blue light, increasing contrast and depth perception. | Cloudy days, fog, changing light conditions (e.g., forest with clearings). |

Clear vision in the mud: the magic of roll-off and tear-off systems
In wet and muddy conditions, your lenses quickly become unusable. This is where two ingenious systems from the world of racing come into play, giving you clear vision again at the touch of a button.
The tear-off system: a quick solution for the sprint
How it works
“Tear-offs” are wafer-thin, transparent tear-off films that are applied in several layers to the outside of the goggle lenses. When the top film is dirty, simply grab the small tab on the side and pull it off while riding, revealing a brand new, clean surface.
Area of application & disadvantages
Ideal for short, intense motocross races. The disadvantage: you only have a limited number of “clear views” and the torn-off plastic films are harmful to the environment. They are therefore now banned on many circuits and in enduro races.
The roll-off system: the champion for long distances and enduro
How it works
A roll-off system is a miniature film reel on your goggles. On one side is a roll with a clean film, on the other side is an empty take-up reel. If your field of vision is dirty, you pull a cord on your helmet. A mechanism then pulls a new, clean film strip over the lens, while the dirty part is rolled up on the other side.
Area of application & advantages
By far the best solution for enduro, rally, and long, muddy MX races. You have significantly more “clear vision” than with tear-offs, and no waste ends up in the environment.
Product example: Leatt Velocity 5.5/6.5 Pro Roll-Off System
This high-quality retrofit kit transforms your Leatt goggles into an absolute weapon against bad weather.
Protection, maintenance & personalization: get the most out of your goggles
Your goggles are a precision optical instrument. With the right accessories, you can protect them, keep them in top condition, and customize them to suit your style.
Protect your investment: goggle cases & storage systems
Description: Do you just throw your expensive glasses into your equipment bag after skiing? That's a big mistake! Sand, dirt, and other hard objects can scratch the lenses and frames. A special glasses case is the best insurance for your glasses.
Hard vs. soft glasses cases
A hard case offers maximum protection against knocks and bruises. Softer cases are lighter and more flexible. Many cases also have separate compartments for spare lenses and tear-offs.
Customization & fit: straps, foam rubber & more
Eyeglass chains
The eyeglass strap is a central style element. Many high-quality eyeglasses allow you to replace the strap. This not only allows you to replace a worn strap, but also gives your eyeglasses a fresh new look with a new design.
Face foam
The foam that rests on your face is a wearing part. Sweat and dirt affect it. Replacement foam pads are available for some top models, making your goggles feel like new again.
FAQ: Frequently asked questions about motorcycle goggle accessories
1. How do I clean my motocross goggles properly?
It is best to remove the lenses. Rinse the lenses and frame with lukewarm water. Clean the lenses carefully with a soft microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution. Never wipe with your sleeve or paper towels, as this will cause scratches!
2. My lenses are fogged up. What can I do?
Most modern lenses have an anti-fog coating. Good ventilation is important. Make sure the ventilation openings in the frame are clear. For extreme conditions, there are special double-glazed lenses.
3. What is the difference between roll-off and tear-off?
Tear-offs are separate tear-off films that you throw away. A roll-off is a continuous film that is pulled from one spool to another. Roll-off is more environmentally friendly and offers more “clear vision.”
4. Can I mount a roll-off system on any glasses?
No. You need a specific roll-off kit that fits your glasses model exactly. In addition, the lens must have special attachments for the system.
5. Which tint is best for the forest?
For rides in the forest with constant changes between light and shade, contrast-enhancing lenses (yellow, orange, persimmon) are ideal because they improve depth perception.
6. Are mirrored lenses better than just tinted lenses?
They offer even better protection against glare and reflections. Whether you like the look is a matter of taste.
7. How often should I replace my lenses?
As soon as they have deep or numerous fine scratches that impair your vision. Scratched glasses can cause extreme glare in backlighting and pose a safety risk.
8. Can I wash the glasses cord?
Yes. Remove it from the glasses and wash it by hand with mild soap. Allow it to air dry completely.
9. What is an “outrigger” on glasses?
These are the side supports to which the glasses cord is attached. They ensure that the glasses are pressed more evenly and firmly against the face, especially in combination with the helmet opening.
10. Are there also lenses with UV protection?
Yes, all high-quality polycarbonate lenses from brand manufacturers filter out 100% of harmful UVA, UVB, and UVC rays, providing complete protection for your eyes.
Conclusion: small parts, huge performance improvement
Your eyewear accessories are the key to unlocking the full potential of your ski goggles. They allow you to adapt to all weather conditions, keep your vision clear at the most critical moments, and maintain the value of your equipment for many seasons. From replacement lenses to roll-off systems, each part is a thoughtful investment in your performance and safety.
Optimize your window on the world.
