Nordik Eyewear Reviews 19

Responsive and clear communication. Product looks and fits fantastic. I would recommend the polarized lenses over the Diamant lenses.

Great product so far but with a bad surprise from UPS for custom fees.

It took a long time getting to me and when they arrived much to my surprise there were 2 sets of glasses. I thought I ordered one set. Oh well…. I’ll see if I can sell the other ones

Frame quality is not the best bought one from amazon for for 29 dollars with a lot better quality than this, lens quality is ok not the best for cycling you will feel the wind on your ayes.

Customer service and the lens was a perfect fit.

I was trying to find a lense that wasn't listed as for sale individually. Customer service was able to find a way to help my get the second lense I wanted. Thanks!

Customer service was very good. The representative made a recommendation based on my needs and they are excellent. Not sure how durable they are, time will tell.

I received the wrong product, they are not the lenses I ordered.

Better than expected. The mirror lenses look sharp and are great for morning trail runs and aren't too difficult to swap out. The glasses stay on your head great during exercise. The product arrived faster than expected as well

Took slightly longer than most ordered merchandise to receive

Love these sunglasses! Used them for my half marathon and have no complaints. Stay on my face pretty well and the filters are great!

This is my honest review. These glasses are GREAT! An OSCAR winner amongst other brands (imho) Super light, sturdy, well designed and made, very comfortable and ergonomic. No more tears while riding my bike. Yay! And they come with a detachable myopia frame! What a practical, useful feature! Kudos to NORDIK! Especially for elders. No lenses provided though. Too bad! I contacted company customer service and within quick response, I’ve been advised to see my ophthalmologist. I’d be more than happy to pay extra $ for all lenses options. Other than that, I LOVE these glasses! Highly recommend!

The Nordik Viking heated goggles are GREAT!
I received them very quickly and they perform quite well in nearly -40 with the windchill!

I Bought a pair of Nordik Viking Heated Goggles and sadly cannot recommend.

Firstly let me say, I bought them in a sale, the delivery was advertised and the product arrived on time. The quality of the packaging was good and the quality of the actual goggles appears good. I am a keen skier and have as have we all struggled with finding a goggle that provides good definition in the mountains and doesn't mist up. The prospect of heated goggles appeared attractive so I thought I would give these a go.

The goggles are good quality, the quality of the materials evident and the head strap excellent. The foam surround good quality and easily adjustable over your helmet,and I found the fit did go over fairly large eyeglasses, so far so good.

I was surprised that the battery pack has no provision for covering the charging port to stop water ingress, the electrical connectors are cheap and plastic, not rubberised and no attempt is made to make them impervious to water. After a tumble the USB ports were full of snow. I would be interested to know how water proof the battery pack is and if any testing has been done to prevent water ingress, but I doubt it and I think in an outdoors environment this could prove a significant point of weakness.

The button on the battery pack illuminates red, green or blue to signify the level of heating provided, alas the brightness of the light is far too dim to determine the colour in daylight on the slopes.

Over to the lenses and the use of the goggles on the slopes. Nordik ships the goggles with two lenses, the second advertised as a low light lens. Here is the first surprise, the second lens on the "heated goggles" you bought isn't heated at all, only the primary lens meant for bright sunlight. Quite frankly I find this a con, and misrepresentation of the product.

The dark lens is fine and does its job and have to say the heating works very well, but I believe Nordik have forgotten the purpose of a heated goggle. When do we want heating to avoid the glasses misting up, when it's wet and snowing.

I skied earlier in the week in strong light, the primary lenses Hic-MAG5 were effective, however not polarised, the heating was not needed. Today the weather was awful, snow and sleet and I braved a day in the mountains. The primary lens was worse than useless in these conditions, yes it did not mist up but that was irrelevant as the lens was way too dark, and provided no contrast or definition in flat light. I tried the medium rose lens which was better in the flat light but simply steamed up (not having heating which I was led to believe it did) this is not a low light lens.

I would say here that the magnetic lanes change system works really well.

In wet conditions I threw the Nordiks in my backpack and put on my old Oakleys which did a far better job.

Nordik, you have the right idea, but don't mislead your customers thinking they are getting two heated lenses, and why would you ever provide a lens for low flat light that isn't heated. Your other range of goggles seem to have a range of lenses, you need to expand that range of lenses to the "Viking" to make it a worthwhile product, you also need to make clear which lenses are polarised and which not, and which are heated.

I'll say at the end of this review I reached out to Nordik customer services and gave them the opportunity to respond, they did not come back to me.

Very disappointed, it could be a great product.

Finally I re-read the reviews on Nordiks own website, they are mainly from summer, who goes skiing in summer ?

-------------------------------

Updating this, Nordik tried to have my review removed on the basis it violated Trustpilot's rules. Trustpilot quite sensibly decided it did not. I'm still waiting to hear from Nordik's customer service and you're welcome to write. What sort of company engages with a review site but won't engage with its customers who wrote to them before posting a review.

I purchased a pair of heated ski goggles from Nordik Eyewear. Their web site was clear and instructive, and telephone support for product questions helpful. I have not used the goggles on the ski slopes yet, but the product looks well constructed, convenient to use, and durable. I only gave them four stars because I've not yet used the goggles in actual ski conditions, so I cannot comment on their effectiveness in reducing fogging. I hope I have the chance to review the product again in a few weeks.

After writing my initial review, I skied in Colorado for several days. The weather was not the worst relative to the probability of fogging, but it wasn't sunny and warm either, so I thought it was a good test of the antifog features. At first I thought I would leave the head band connected to the goggles and remove the battery from the strap each day for charging, but later decided it was easier to leave the battery attached and remove the strap. The connection of the strap to the goggle was a little difficult to use at first because the sleeve that retains the power cord fits the cord tightly enough that threading the cord though is a bit of a challenge. After a couple of days I got proficient at it. The mechanism for switching the lenses works perfectly: the best such mechanism I've ever used. The battery power was sufficient for an entire day's skiing at the middle power setting, which was the only setting I used. The goggles were fog-free for each day, so I was very pleased. I'll try to contribute another review when I've tried them in worse conditions, relative to the chances of fogging.

One amusing anecdote, on seeing the battery attached to my ski goggle strap, other sikers frequently thought I was skiing through a virtual reality course.

Good glasses, well packaged, good price. My only complaint is the lense came with some minor scratches.
