You are off to visit the slopes this season, but what do you wear? The snowboarding and skiing fashion changes from year to year and yet again we see the top performance brands such as Oakley and Bolle producing some of the finest eyewear for the slopes.

If you are buying sunglasses for skiing or boarding then make sure you get something that will keep the wind out of your eyes. While hurtling down the mountain side the last thing you want is a load of spray in your face and losing your sight, even if it is for a fraction of a second. Alpina is a perfect pair of sunglasses if you want a small lens and are not really looking for a visor.
