Oakley is a well-known name in high-end eyewear, and it is quite possible they have the best goggles for ATV riding, but definitely not the cheapest. Fitted with Oakley's Prizm lens, you can count on these goggles to protect your eyes from debris and also to resist impact and cracking. The optical clarity these goggles are known for are unmatched; there is no distortion.
These goggles work equally well in hot and cold conditions and will not leave you subject to fogging or sweat drops. The design is almost frameless, giving you a wide field of vision. Oakley goggles also use Switchlock technology to simplify the process of changing lenses. While changing the lenses on most goggles will result in a mess of fingerprints, the Switchlock technology only requires that you open the side wings of the goggles to remove a lens and then close them once the new lens is inserted.

The Verdict

The perfect ATV goggles will most likely come down to your personal preference. No one-size-fits-all is ever truly a one-size fits all. However, if you're still interested in our suggestions, we have a few.
Overall Best
We felt the best goggles on this list are the Oakley Airbrake goggles. The optical clarity of the Prizm lens will spoil you, and you will probably find anything else you use afterward to be unacceptable. Beyond the optical clarity, the Prizm lens is impact- and crack-resistant, and unlike most goggles that claim to be fog-free, these goggles are really fog-free regardless of weather. We also love the Switchlock technology that allows you to switch your lenses without adding smudges to your pristine Prizm lens. If you can swallow the price tag, these goggles are worth the money.
Best Mid-Range Option
The Scott Prospect goggles are a great option for roughly a third of what the Oakley's will cost you. They offer great visibility with extra height in the lens, and Scott's lens lock system keep your lens secure even in the event of impact.
Best Budget or Beginner Option
If you are just starting out and want to get a feel for what you like before investing in expensive goggles, a nice, inexpensive starter pair would be the Wellovar goggles. They are not likely to stand the test of time, but they are very inexpensive and decent goggles for the price.
Whichever goggles you choose, always keep safety in mind. If your goggles don't fit properly, you are left vulnerable to visual impairment by way of fog or debris. At the very least, find a pair that fits properly. Happy trails!
