Background
In motorcross, the head, goggles, and helmet are a three part system. If one of these don’t fit the other, they all fit poorly. Thus, many users will buy multiple goggles, try them on, and return the goggles that don’t fit well. Well-fitting goggles are essential to motorcross because debris and dust and easily get in the rider’s eyes without a proper seal around the face. Furthermore, goggle slippage due to an imperfect fit can be distracting and even dangerous during a race. Thus, it is crucial to find a pair of goggles that fit well and are comfortable to the rider.
Solution
The MetraMX system delivers a tailored motocross goggle fit based on the shape of the user’s face. Riders will never have to struggle finding a pair of goggles that fits their face and helmet; instead they can swap out the goggle padding for the best fitting padding shape. Instead of traditional foam, the padding in MetraMX goggles utilize a 3D-printed lattice structure, allowing for a closer and more personalized fit.
