The Anon M4 goggle is outstanding and the performance scores reflect that. This model is best suited for individuals with a larger facial structure. If you have a rather large mug or typically find goggles to fit a little small on you, we recommend considering the Anon M4. The M4 has the most effortless lens-swapping capabilities of them all, featuring magnetic attachments that are secure while allowing the lenses to be interchanged in seconds. Along with the extra lens, Anon ships these goggles with a face covering that also has magnets inside, allowing it to snap into and stay in place quickly. The lenses are built to last, and their quality leaves nothing to be desired.
The M4 was a contender for the top spot due to its well-rounded performance but its larger frame will fit fewer individuals than most medium-sized goggles. However, the large frame size is an advantage for those who struggle to find a larger frame that fits them. In the end, the Anon M4 is exceptional and our top recommendation for folks looking for a genuinely large goggle.

Smith may have pioneered the interchangeable-lens system, but Anon is mastering it. Much like its predecessors, the M2 and M3, the M4’s magnetic lens swapping is best-in-class. It’s as easy as giving a slight twist to the frame to expose the lens and pulling it away from your face. Anon honed things in even further with the latest model thanks to a very sturdy frame that protects the lens and holds it securely in place (ours has survived multiple crashes without issue). Further, the M4’s versatile construction allows you to swap between cylindrical and toric lenses (additional lenses cost extra) depending on preferences in style and performance. We still give the slight optical edge to ChromaPop due to its more vibrant and natural colors, but Anon has the top quick-change system on the market.

The MFI in the M4’s name is for the included magnetic clip-in facemask, which combines with the goggle to create a blocker system against driving wind and snow without fogging the lens. Our one nitpick with the facemask is that it’s so thin that it lacks a strong structure, so if you’re breathing heavily while hiking, the material can be sucked into your mouth. But all of the other key components are there with the M4 MFI, including triple-layer foam and a variety of lens options to cover you from bright to cloudy. It’s a hearty investment at $320, but we haven’t found fault with the goggle’s ease of use and all-around top-end performance... Read in-depth reviewSee the Anon M4 Toric MFI
