Ski Goggles BOLLE CERRO Totem Blue Matte - Azure Photochromic Cat 1 to 3

Ski Goggles BOLLÉ Cerro Totem Blue Matte – Azure Photochromic Cat. 1–3

Photochromic ski goggles BOLLÉ Cerro Totem Blue Matte – Azure Photochromic Cat. 1–3 with automatic light adaptation, VLT 45–10 %, 100 % UV protection, and Flow-Tech® ventilation

Ski goggles BOLLÉ Cerro Totem Blue Matte – Azure Photochromic Cat. 1–3 are modern, high-quality, and versatile photochromic ski goggles designed for alpines skiing, snowboarding, and all-day use on the slopes in changing light conditions. They combine automatic darkening adjustment of the lens, a wide field of view, effective UV protection, and advanced anti-fog technologies.

The CERRO model in an attractive color combination Totem Blue Matte – Azure Photochromic stands out with a distinct blue matte frame and a photochromic lens with a blue outer appearance.

Its most important advantage is the Azure Photochromic Cat. 1–3 lens, which automatically adapts to changing light intensity.

When light intensifies, the lens gradually darkens and reduces the amount of light reaching the eyes. When light diminishes, it becomes lighter and allows more light to pass through.

Such technology is particularly useful on slopes where weather conditions can rapidly change between sunny, partly cloudy, and cloudy weather.

The photochromic lens offers greater versatility without the need to regularly change lenses.

Light transmission (VLT) ranges from 45 % to 10 %, meaning the lens adjusts from a lighter category 1 to a darker category 3.

Under low light it provides higher transmission; under bright sun it more effectively reduces glare.

Thus the goggles are suitable for skiers who want one pair of goggles for various daily weather conditions.

Quality optical protection is provided by Superior Light Filter Photochromic (SLF Photochromic), BOLLÉ’s technology for photochromic lenses, which combines adaptable darkening, clear visibility, and 100% UV protection.

The lens is made from polycarbonate, enabling a light and functional optical construction.

The base tint of the lens is Amber Base Tint, contributing to comfortable perception of the snowy surface and contrasts.

A special feature of the model is the wide cylindrical lens, which provides a large field of view and good terrain, other skiers, and surroundings visibility.

A wide field of view is especially important while skiing on varied slopes and when changing direction quickly.

The goggles have a double lens construction to help reduce condensation caused by temperature differences between the inside and outside surfaces.

The inner surface is equipped with an Anti-Fog coating, reducing the likelihood of fogging.

The outer surface has an Anti-Scratch coating, helping protect the lens from minor scratches during normal use.

For additional ventilation, there is Flow-Tech® Venting, a special system of channels and ventilation openings in the frame.

This enables more effective air circulation and helps wick away moisture caused by sweating and temperature differences.

The combination of photochromic lens, double construction, Anti-Fog coating, and Flow-Tech® ventilation contributes to comfortable and more reliable visibility in various winter conditions.

For comfortable face fit, there is Triple Density Face Foam, which adapts to the shape of the face and helps distribute pressure evenly.

This construction also provides comfort during longer skiing days.

The model has a adjustable elastic strap with silicone elements, which helps prevent goggles from sliding on the ski helmet.

An important advantage is also the OTG (Over The Glasses) design, allowing use over suitably sized corrective glasses.

This solution is particularly practical for users who need glasses with diopters while skiing.

The frame is made of TPU material, enabling a flexible and comfortable construction.

The model is designed for good compatibility with BOLLÉ ski helmets, as the manufacturer develops the goggles and helmets with coordinated fitting in mind.

The goggles are available in one universal size (One Size) and weigh approximately 120 g.

A special advantage of the Totem Blue Matte variant is the attractive blue frame with a matte finish, creating a modern and sporty look.

Blue photochromic ski goggles pair well with black, white, gray, blue, and other colors of ski helmets and clothing.

If you are looking for photochromic ski goggles with automatic light adjustment, lens category Cat. 1–3, VLT 45–10 %, 100 % UV protection, wide field of view, and an effective anti-fog system, then BOLLÉ Cerro Totem Blue Matte – Azure Photochromic Cat. 1–3 is an excellent choice for versatile skiing.

The design is primarily suitable for medium-sized faces, with an adjustable strap allowing for different head circumferences and ski helmets.

How to check proper fit?

1. Place the goggles on the face so they evenly cover the area around the eyes.

2. Check that the face foam sits comfortably.

3. Adjust the strap so the goggles stay stable.

4. Check that the goggles do not press too hard on the nose.

5. When using with a helmet, check the fit between the upper edge of the goggles and the helmet.

6. If you wear prescription glasses, check fit inside the OTG frame.

Properly mounted ski goggles should provide stable fit, comfort, and unobstructed vision.

Maintenance and proper use

To maintain the quality of the photochromic lens, protective coatings, and comfort, we recommend:

• after use, dry the goggles at room temperature;

• do not store wet goggles directly in a closed bag;

• clean the outer lens surface with a soft optical cloth;

• do not rub the inner surface, especially when wet;

• do not use aggressive cleaners or solvents;

• do not expose goggles to direct high heat;

• do not place them with the lens facing down on rough surfaces;

• check the lens, frame, and strap condition before use;

• do not use damaged lenses;

• follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Important: The internal anti-fog coating is sensitive. If the inner surface is wet, let it dry rather than aggressively drying it.
