Description GIRO Article II
The wide field of view of high-end ZEISS toric lenses provides you with protection and contrast vision from the first turns in the December fog to the sunlit slopes in March. That is why the Article II goggles have two lenses – one for poor visibility and one for sunny weather. Both are, of course, equipped with our Vivid technology. Exchange is easy thanks to the intuitive and fast Quick-Change system.

VIVID TECHNOLOGY ENHANCES CONTRAST, BOOSTS CONFIDENCE.
VIVID is a patented technology developed by the Giro brand in collaboration with ZEISS Optics. VIVID significantly enhances the visual experience of moving on snow by improving contrast and sharpness – you'll see clearly, without excessive color saturation. VIVID reduces eye fatigue, improves reaction time, and boosts confidence.
HOW DOES VIVID WORK?
The VIVID technology was developed by the Giro brand in collaboration with the global leader in optics – ZEISS Optics. Standard ski goggles completely block so-called blue light. It was long believed that blue light equals bad light for seeing in the snow. But there is one problem: snow is not white. As the most reflective surface on the planet, snow is actually blue. Our research has shown that blue light is important for proper vision and reading terrain covered with snow. The VIVID technology allows a portion of blue light to pass through, which increases contrast, while simultaneously blocking harmful UV radiation. VIVID essentially filters out the "glare haze" and your eyes will see the exact three-dimensional terrain in front of you: bumps, mounds, ice patches, piled-up or deep snow.
