Magnetic lenses that swap in seconds
Every Corlin goggle takes magnetic lenses that lift off and seat themselves back in seconds – gloves on, no tools, nothing to unclip. A Category 3 lens comes fitted in the box, so the goggle is ready for bright days straight out of the carton. Change the lens when the light changes, instead of buying a second pair of goggles. How magnetic ski goggles work.
Claude or Reuben?
Corlin makes two ski goggle frames. They cost the same and both arrive with a Category 3 lens fitted. What separates them is the shape of the frame and which lens family it opens up.
- Claude – three colorways, with its own family of magnetic lenses.
- Reuben – five colorways, its own family of magnetic lenses, and interchangeable straps.
The two are closed systems: Claude lenses fit Claude frames, Reuben lenses fit Reuben frames. There is no adapter, so check the frame name on your goggle before ordering a spare. Both frames come in black, silver and brown, and Reuben also comes in orange and beige. If you are after a specific color, see black ski goggles, silver ski goggles, brown ski goggles, orange ski goggles or beige ski goggles.
Which lens for which light
Lens category describes how much light the lens lets through. Match it to the conditions you actually ski in:
- Category 3 – black, silver and brown. Bright sun. This is the lens that comes fitted in the box.
- Category 2 – Claude Lens Blue and Reuben Lens Forest Green. For days that keep changing.
- Category 1 – orange and pink. Flat light and snowfall, where contrast matters most. The most common second lens.
- Clear – no tint at all. The one for floodlit night skiing.
Every lens carries UV400 protection, blocking 100% of UVA and UVB – including the clear one, which people often assume offers none. Tint depth and UV protection are separate things: a dark lens is not better protected than a light one, it simply lets less visible light through. Every lens also has an anti-fog layer and a scratch-resistant coating.

Which lens suits which day is set out in the ski goggle lens guide, and riders will find the same goggles on the snowboard goggles page.
What a second lens costs
A spare magnetic lens costs less than a third of a second pair of goggles. One frame covers bright sun, flat light and night skiing for a fraction of what a second goggle costs – that is the whole argument for a magnetic system, and it is why most people buy one frame and add lenses over time.
If you want a frame and a spare lens together, the ski bundles pair a Reuben frame with an extra magnetic lens and an interchangeable strap at a set price. Every lens is also sold separately.
Fit and size
All Corlin ski goggles are one size, designed to sit flush against most face shapes. A goggle that sits loose is the one that fogs and slides down your nose, so fit matters more than any figure on the box. Returns are open for 30 days, so you can try them at home before deciding.
Both frames are unisex, with no separate cut for women or men. If that is the search you came from, see women's ski goggles or men's ski goggles.
What comes in the box
The goggle with a Category 3 magnetic lens fitted, a protective faux-leather case and a carton box. Shipping is free worldwide, returns are open for 30 days, and there is a one-year warranty.
