Gear Spotlight: Bollé Instict MIPS Helmet & Nevada Goggles w/ Phantom Lens


 

Bollé’s Instinct MIPS helmet relies on the brand’s own proprietary EPS build, dubbed Avid, featuring vent channels that are carved out of the interior EPS to provide airflow and decrease weight. For 2018-19, Bollé threw in a MIPS system to further enhance the helmet’s protective qualities by helping to disperse dangerous rotational or oblique strikes to the head. The result is a noodle guard that’s light, comfortable and doesn’t skimp on safety.

We’ll say it, we think the Nevada is Bollé’s sexiest goggle it has ever put on the market. Lucky you, eh? The rimless frame and monstrous cylindrical lens not only enhance your looks but provide an astonishing range of vision, something all skiers covet. Bollé also offers the Nevada with its photochromic Phantom lens, which boasts a Speedy Gonzales-esque transition time of 30 seconds from dark to light, or vice versa, regardless of outside temperature. Skeptics of photochromic lenses will be converted into believers after experiencing the Phantom difference.
