Adidas Burna Goggle Review
Goggle Body
Adidas Eyewear designed the body of the Burna quite well and there were only a few things that I saw that would make them even better. The Burna goggle fits well and didn’t cause any irritation. The goggle body provided a stable platform and plenty of air flow.

Body Highlights
- The Adidas goggles feature a really nice quick lens changing feature. It is easy to pop lenses in and out without fumbling. Most goggles attach to the body via numerous small tabs that the lens attaches to the body. The Adidas Burna only attaches in two spots (above the nose and in between the eyebrows). The goggle body has a groove that the rest of the lens stays in.
- The goggle strap has silicon strips to make sure the goggles don’t move once on the helmet.
- The Adidas goggles can accept prescription inserts.
- The body is soft and flexible. This helps them be more durable and conform to faces of all sizes.
- There’s plenty of ventilation (full 360 degrees) along the sides and foam to prevent any dirt or debris from entering.
- The Adidas Burna body has some stylish body design and has a silver fleck on the insdie of the strap and on the Adidas symbol.
- Ample color options available to fit whatever your style might be.
Some improvements to the goggle body
- The Adidas goggle straps are shorter than most goggles. While there was enough strap to go around every helmet we tried it would have been nice to have a longer strap to increase compatibility and comfort with bigger helmets. I suspect the strap length is shorter because the Burna originated as a snow goggle.
- The Burna’s do not have the most technologically advanced foam to wick sweat away. It would be nice to see some more development in an additional layer to wick sweat away as the Burna’s have one consistent foam type/layer between your face and the goggle body.
- The inside of the body is black, but some sort of anti-reflecting coating would be a nice addition.
- Removable foam that could either be replaced or clean easier.
- There is no rock / nose guard.
