Anon Tracker 2.0 Goggles + MFI Face Mask vs Smith Daredevil

The Anon wins because it is the only pick that tells you exactly how dark every lens is, and it adds a low-bridge option and a magnetic face mask. The Smith Daredevil is the better buy for most families who just need a well-fitting, glasses-friendly goggle for a tier less.

Anon Tracker 2.0 Goggles + MFI Face Mask

Buy it

A kid-sized, over-the-glasses goggle that prints the VLT and S category on every lens option and ships with a magnetic face mask.

• Every lens choice is labelled with its VLT and filter category, from Amber at 55% (S1) to Silver Amber at 23% (S2), so you can match the tint to where your child skis.
• Anon calls it over-the-glass compatible and offers it in a Regular or a Low Bridge fit for kids whose goggles gap at the nose.
• The MFI magnetic face mask is in the box, so the gap between goggle and neck warmer is closed without extra shopping.

• Lens changes use a traditional notch-and-tab system, not the magnetic Magna-Tech swap on Anon's adult goggles.
• No spare lens is included, so one tint has to cover every kind of day.
• Anon says it is built for smaller faces but gives no age range or frame measurements on the product page.

Smith Daredevil

Buy it

Smith's youth medium-fit goggle, built to go over glasses, with a Fog-X anti-fog inner lens and a wide colour and lens range.

• Smith states it is designed to fit over glasses and uses a floating foam membrane to take pressure off eyeglass temples.
• The lens is a cylindrical Carbonic-x lens with a Fog-X anti-fog inner lens, and Smith lists 100% UVA and UVB protection.
• Smith designs it to integrate with its own helmets and sells it with Ignitor Mirror, Blue Sensor Mirror, RC36, Green Sol-X Mirror or Clear lenses.

• The product page gives no VLT or S category for any of the lens options.
• No spare lens is included, and a search of Smith's store did not turn up a separate Daredevil replacement lens.
• Smith calls it a youth medium fit but publishes no age range on the page.
