What is VLT?
VLT stands for Visible Light Transmission, and it's a percentage that measures how much light passes through ski goggles:
Higher VLT
Lighter, more transparent lenses that allow more light through. These are good for low-light conditions.
Lower VLT
Darker lenses that allow less light through. These are good for sunny conditions.
Here are some examples of VLT ratings :
08–24%: For full sun
20–42%: For days with mixed clouds
40–79%: For overcast or stormy conditions & for night skiing
Most SKADI Goggles range around 24% - 27% VLT making them the best all-rounder goggles.
