PP Picador Motorcycle Riding Goggles w/ Removable Face Mask
'Tis
the season of three-quarter open-face helmets. It's also the time of
year that pesky, winged pests come out to party. Those little guys never
feel good when they splatter on your cheek, so to combat against the
swarm while allowing you the freeing feel of an open-face lid, the goggle/mask from Picador
offers an ideal solution. The multifunctional mask not only keeps your
entire face safe from bugs and road debris, it also keeps your eyes
protected from UV rays—a huge consideration. The lens in the goggles is
lightweight, wear resistant, and impact resistant for across-the-board
protection. Foam padding around the outer rim makes for a comfortable
feel throughout the day. Two vents in the mask optimize airflow over and
inside of the lens—a necessity for summer riding.
