Description
Scope is a futuristic pair of snowboarding goggles that merges the rising demand for "smart" products with the growing need for sustainable, responsible design. Inspired by biomimicry, the lens and strap technology draw from the remarkable vision of the jumping spider and the adaptive form of the brittle star.

Playing into future trends of gear that is both "designed to die" and enhanced by "the digital layer," Scope blends cutting-edge tech with biodegradability. These smart goggles capture footage, analyze riding metrics, and enhance visibility with zoom-in capabilities and dynamic tint adjustments, empowering riders with cutting edge technology while leaving a lighter footprint on the planet.

Innovation
Scope snowboarding goggles combine biodegradable materials with detachable technology for easier end-of-life processing. The "Regen" retractable strap system allows for quick size adjustments and compact storage. While "Stargrip" technology uses natural latex patterns to grip to the helmet.

"Arachnid" smart lenses offer real-time data analysis, zoom capabilities, and auto-tint adjustments, while the built-in Bluetooth camera captures footage on the go.
