2017 ABOM Goggle Review

The Abom is the only goggle produced by Abominable Labs, and that’s quite alright because this thing is frickin’ unique. Great field of vision is its most obvious attribute, but it also features an awesome lens-swapping mechanism: The lens attaches to the frame via a set of retention teeth and dual electric contact points. It can be removed by simply pulling it off the frame and reattached by aligning the lens with the electrical contacts and retention teeth. The biggest draw of the Abom, however, is a lens-heating system that mirrors the defroster in your car—powered via a USB rechargeable battery—that eliminates fogging.

$260 w/ mirrored lens
