Acerbis goggles

Acerbis has launched an entire new goggle collection for motocross, enduro and general riding. There are four models in the range: the Vortex, Vulcan, Vitrion and Vanguard Kid.

The Vortex tops the range and features a quick-release lens with an anti-fog coating and ‘Perception Technology’, which claims to provide clear vision in all light conditions. The frame has dual-density construction – rigid on the outside, soft on the inside – and has large vents for ventilation on the move. The frame is wider than the norm to provide a broader field of view and also to accommodate prescription glasses if required. The 45mm elasticated strap has silicon inserts for better grip. The Vortex comes in three versions: with a clear lens, with a mirrored Perception lens, and with a roll-off lens with a 50mm sliding film for extreme conditions. UK prices are yet to be finalised.

The Vulcan has similar features to the Vortex but at a lower price point: £54.16 with a clear lens, £58.33 with a mirrored lens, and £72.49 for the roll-off version. There is also an enduro version that features a double lens for even better fogging prevention for £58.33.

Further down the price spectrum comes the Vitrion. Acerbis claims the inclusion of outriggers makes this model distinctive at this price point, and that they improve the position of the goggles on a helmet. The soft frames have enough room to accommodate glasses and have triple-density foam inside for comfort. The lens has an anti-fog coating and comes in clear (£33.33 SRP) and mirrored (£37.49 SRP) options.

Last, and least in terms of size, is the Vanguard Kid aimed at younger riders. It has an impact resistant injection-moulded lens which has both anti-scratch and anti-fog coatings, and the frame is lined in triple-density foam. It’s available in clear (£22.49) and mirrored versions.
