Sun Bum x Electric Goggles: Beach Vibes Meet Mountain Highs

Share

Okay, picture this: Sun Bum (you know, the brand that’s basically sunscreen royalty for surfers and beach bums) just teamed up with Electric (the eyewear legends who’ve been keeping snowboarders’ and skiers’ eyes safe since forever) to create something… wild. These goggles? They’re not just for shredding powder or catching waves. They’re for anyone who wants to look cool while literally staring into the sun. (And let’s be honest, that’s all of us.)

Why This Collab Works (Spoiler: It’s Genius)

Sun Bum brings the chill, SPF-obsessed beach energy. Electric brings the “we-engineered-this-in-a-lab-to-survive-a-blizzard” tech. Together? It’s like mixing margaritas with a snow cone—unexpected, but so good. These goggles are built for the person who’s equally likely to be found on a surfboard at dawn or a ski lift by noon. (Or, let’s be real, someone who just wants to look like they could do both.)

Style: Retro Meets “Did You See Those Goggles?!”

Sun Bum’s design team clearly raided a vintage surf shop and a neon sign factory. We’re talking palm tree motifs, sunset gradients, and colors so bright they’ll make a flamingo jealous. But here’s the kicker—they’re not just pretty. The frame? Lightweight, low-profile, and shaped to hug your face like it’s your soulmate. (No awkward goggle gap, promise.) And the lenses? Swap ‘em out faster than you can say, “Wait, is that a cloud or a avalanche?” Sunny day? Throw on the mirrored lens. Foggy morning? Low-light lens has your back.

Tech Stuff (Without the Boring Manual Vibes)

Let’s get nerdy for a sec—but in a fun way. Electric didn’t cut corners here:

- 100% UV protection – Because Sun Bum would side-eye them hard if they didn’t. (Your eyeballs deserve better than squinty regret.)

- Anti-fog, anti-scratch lenses – No more wiping your goggles every 30 seconds like a frantic windshield wiper. These lenses stay clear even when your adrenaline’s pumping.

- Wrap-around vision – The spherical lenses curve with your face, so you can spot that sneaky tree branch (or your friend wiping out) without cranking your neck like an owl.

- Triple-layer foam – It’s like memory foam for your face. Sweaty hike? Freezing chairlift? Your skin stays happy.

Comfort: Because No One Likes Goggle Face

You know that red ring around your eyes after a long day on the mountain? (The one that makes you look like a raccoon who discovered espresso?) These goggles fix that. The foam is stupid-soft, the strap adjusts without strangling your head, and the whole thing sits flush against your face—no weird gaps letting in snow or sand. (Or your friend’s questionable dance moves at the après-ski party.)

Not Just for Winter (Shhh, Don’t Tell the Skiers)

Yeah, they’re killer on the slopes. But Sun Bum’s beachy DNA means these goggles are ready for:

- Surfing – Glare off the water? Blocked. Saltwater splashes? Laughed at.

- Cycling – Dust, wind, bugs? Nope. Just you and the open road.

- Music festivals – Pair them with glitter and a questionable decisions. (We won’t judge.)

Eco-Friendly? Yeah, They Thought of That

Sun Bum’s all about protecting the planet (see: their reef-safe sunscreen), so these goggles use recycled materials in the frame and strap. And since the lenses are interchangeable, you’re not tossing the whole pair when one scratches. (Planet Earth says “thanks.”)

The Takeaway: For People Who Don’t Do “Basic”

If your idea of a perfect day involves sunscreen, spontaneity, and maybe a little danger, these goggles are your spirit animal. They’re for the person who’d rather invest in memories than stuff—but also wants their stuff to look awesome in the ‘Gram photos. (Priorities, right?)

So… ready to see the world through lenses that’re equal parts functional and “holy wow”? Grab these goggles, slap on some SPF (duh), and go wherever the vibe takes you. (Just maybe send a postcard.)
