Uvex race pro L CV: read the terrain and keep your line in sight
The Uvex race pro L CV black / red-purple is a focused choice for performance skiing, where you want to identify the next transition and your intended line early. The range combines Colorvision with a generous field of view. Beyond appearance, the key buying criteria are a lens suited to your light conditions and a pressure-free fit on your face.
Technical specifications at a glance
Colorvision: contrast, not just a darker view
A lens should reduce glare appropriately while helping you read the course. Colorvision is designed to enhance colour and contrast. This can help with line choice, but cannot compensate for a lack of visibility in dense fog.
Field of view: room to see the next turn
The Race Pro range's reduced frame design creates a generous field of view. Still check your sideways and downward view during fitting: what matters is how the frame sits on your face, not just how large the goggles look from outside.
Fit and anti-fog performance go together
The soft, three-layer foam should make even contact. The silicone-coated strap helps keep the goggles on the helmet, while Supravision helps prevent fogging. Excessive strap tension cannot replace the right shape: it can create pressure without meaningfully improving fit.
Choose the lens for your ski day
This version is rated S2, making it a versatile choice for days with sun and cloud. In very low light, a lighter lens may be more suitable. The included S1 spare lens provides that additional option. Change the lens as instructed before starting your run. Colorvision enhances contrast; switching between S2 and S1 requires changing the lens and does not happen automatically.
Who is the Uvex race pro L CV black / red-purple for?
Our advice: shortlist these race goggles if you ski hard and value contrast and field of view. Try them with the helmet you actually use. They must not squeeze your nose, the foam should make contact all around, and the helmet must not push the goggles down. Even a high-quality model is the wrong choice if it presses on your face.
Use & selection: light, helmet and care
Light conditions: Assess the brightness before your first run and again if the weather changes. In low light, use the included S1 lens and follow the lens-changing instructions.
Helmet fitting: Put the helmet on correctly first, then the goggles. Check the forehead interface, nose area and sides without overtightening the strap. If you wear prescription glasses, check the actual space using that exact pair.
Everyday training care: Let wet goggles dry before storing them. Do not rub the wet inner lens vigorously, and follow the cleaning and lens-changing instructions. For transport, a suitable case protects the delicate surface better than leaving the goggles loose among tools or helmet parts.

Why buy this product from SF Sports?
At SF Sports, we assess goggles and helmet as a combined setup. We help match the intended lens to your usual skiing and identify pressure points during fitting. For race training, this matters more than choosing by frame colour or mirror finish alone.
Frequently asked questions before buying
What does CV mean?
Uvex uses CV to mean Colorvision. The technology enhances colour and contrast; it does not mean automatically changing tint.
Are these goggles photochromic?
Colorvision alone does not mean photochromic. Uvex calls its automatic tint adjustment Variomatic. Choose by the expressly stated lens technology, not the mirror colour.
Which light conditions is this lens suitable for?
S2 is suitable for sun and cloud. An additional S1 spare lens is included for lower light.
Does it fit every ski helmet?
No universal fit guarantee would be meaningful. Check forehead contact and the nose area with your own helmet. Neither a matching brand name nor a very tight strap replaces a proper fitting.
Can the goggles still fog up?
Yes. An anti-fog coating is not a guarantee in every situation. Moisture, restricted ventilation and incorrect cleaning can affect visibility. Drying and care according to the manufacturer's instructions remain important.
What should prescription-glasses wearers check?
Check space for the frame and temples with your actual prescription glasses. The Race Pro range is also listed as OTG, but that does not mean every frame will fit without pressure.
Is a spare lens included?
Yes. In addition to the S2 lens, an extra S1-category lens is included. S1 is intended for lower light. Change the lens according to the instructions; the change is not automatic.
