The Grateful Dead x TGR Teton Daydream Uprising Goggles are a must-have for any serious skier or snowboarder looking for high-performance optics that also have character. This limited-edition collaboration between two iconic brands in the world of skiing and music features is like nothing else on the market.
Carl ZEISS Optics
Anyone knows that as far as goggles go optics are the name of the game. If you get this wrong nothing else matters. The Grateful Dead x TGR Teton Daydream Uprising Goggles boast lenses from Carl ZEISS, a world leader in optics. Backed by over 170 years of optical DNA, they allow you to see more detail and definition, even in challenging conditions. I put this claim to the test after skiing down from the summit of Mt. Rainier with every condition from whiteout to bright sun.
I found that the Sonar All Condition Sun lenses worked great in both highlight and lowlight conditions. This lens had the largest dynamic range of any lens I’ve tried. A low light lens is also included with the Grateful Dead x TGR Teton Daydream Uprising Goggles which would be ideal for socked in days or night skiing.
TGR Goggles Fit
The goggles fit my face quite well and the triple-layer foam provided awesome comfort. I’m a 6’1” male with a very average head size for reference. The cylindrical construction of the lens is designed to maximize your field of view and kept my vision crisp all day long.
Features
The Grateful Dead x TGR Teton Daydream Uprising Goggles come with interchangeable magnetic technology that allows for quick, seamless lens changes on the go. The goggles are also designed to fit comfortably over prescription eyewear, making them a great choice for anyone who needs corrective lenses.
The goggles come with a TGR Evo case, goggle bag, and wipes, so you can keep them clean and protected when you’re not using them.
Style
I rarely dedicate a section to style but with an iconic duo like this I can’t help it. The unique design combines the Grateful Dead’s iconic imagery with Teton Gravity Research’s functional style. In addition to the graphics, I loved the frameless look.
Overall Impression
Overall, the Grateful Dead x TGR Teton Daydream Uprising Goggles ($271.00) are an excellent choice for anyone looking for high-performance ski goggles that are also stylish and unique. With their ZEISS Sonar technology lenses, innovative interchangeable magnetic technology, and comfortable fit, these TGR Goggles are sure to impress even the most discerning skiers and snowboarders.
