4d mag11/19/2023 With a totally unobstructed view free of any top clips, and a smaller nose piece free of any tab docking, there is certainly a “roomy” feel to the visibility of these goggles. Skiers and riders benefit from massive visibility. The best part? The satisfying magnetic click when the lens engages the frame. The magnet is strong enough to feel secure, but weak enough to make the experience 95% hassle-free and quick. The hardest part is lining up the two side clips, but this is cake compared to the old lens swap process on my older Smith I/Os, which are still very popular and spotted often at the mountain. The 4D Mags are 1 clip, 2 clip, magnet disengage, swap, magnet engages, 1 clip, 2 clip, done. Gone are the days of bending lenses to line up plastic fins to the frames. The 4D Mags get their name from the magnet-based quick-change system. Hats off to Smith for this subtle, but totally appreciable design bit. There’s nothing more satisfying than that to a total gear nerd like me. With a helmet like the Quantum or Vantage, you get a nice extended brim that perfectly frames the top of Smith goggles.
