Snowsports activities are popular and recreational, especially in countries closer to the north or south pole and have longer winter seasons. The most popular forms of snow sports are skiing, sledding, and skating. However, the introduction of artificial snow and ice under controlled temperature conditions is facilitating the growth of the snow sports industry in countries that are closer to the equator as well.

Several countries, including popular tourist destinations that lack naturally occurring snow, are increasingly deploying artificial snow and ice systems and their market. Snow goggles, or ski goggles, are necessary, especially for winter sporting activities like skiing and snowboarding. These goggles protect skiers and snowboarders from the harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, come equipped with double lenses, anti-fog coatings, and good venting facilities. Since the lenses are large, these goggles give a wider field of view and excellent peripheral vision. Most of these snow goggle frames are made using soft, flexible materials like nylon, rubber, and propionate materials as they do not turn brittle in the cold and offer better protection against facial injuries.

The snow goggles are traditionally made of driftwood (especially spruce), bone, walrus ivory, caribou antler, and in some cases seashore grass. The workpiece is carved to fit the wearer's face, and one more narrow horizontal slit is carved at the front. The goggles fit tightly against the face so that the only light entering is through the slits, and soot is applied to the inside to help cut down on glare. The slits are made narrow which reduces the amount of light entering and improves visual acuity. The greater the width of its slits, the larger the field of view.
