Smith Prodigy Review

Smith Prodigy Review

The Smith Prodigy has been around for a few years now. A solid medium/large fitting goggle with a variety of lens options as well as a “hop up kit.” That’s right a “Hop Up Kit!” This is some tech stuff. Alright back to the review.

What are some things that I am looking for in a pair of goggles? Besides the crucial item called fit, goggles can be reviewed for lens options, style, fog prevention, and price. Most good goggles today will run you around $60 to $150.

I’ve been riding with the Smith Prodigy Goggle for 3 seasons now. I love the fit and the unobstructed vision you get through these goggles. The medium/large fit is great if you don’t have a helmet that has a snug fit or isn’t a Smith brand helmet. I’ve ridden with a Giro Bad Lieutenant for a number of years. The Prodigy fit well.

Smith offers a plethora of lens choices for the Prodigy. From the Sensor Mirror lens to the Red Mirror, you’ve got a few choices. I prefer the Sensor Mirror lens for the storm days as well as cloudy dark days. If I was to pick one lens to rule them all, I would probably go with the Ignitor lens. It’s a little light for those Spring Sun days, but if you only want one pair of goggles, go with the Ignitor lens. Of course I recommend you have at least 2 pair of goggles in your car or pack, with more at home. Just keep stocking up when you find a deal.

The Smith Prodigy Goggle have an aggressive style. Kind of like a rattle snake or reptile head of some sort. I like how they look.

On storm days you are often skiing a little slower around the mountain and that can lead to some fogginess in the goggle. I have never had these fog up on me. Not even during touring.

The Smith Prodigy Goggle sells for around $100 at most retailers. Check out Ebay, TGR and Craigs List for deals on the Prodigy. I see them selling for around $50 with shipping quite often.

Over all, I love the Prodigy. It’s a great google with a solid style, good fit and excellent lens options. The price for a new pair can be kind of high, but if you are diligent, finding a pair for $50 makes these goggles a steal!
