Most breath box balaclavas are designed to work with a wide range of goggle styles, but compatibility is not universal. The top edge of the balaclava needs to tuck under your goggle foam to create a complete seal. Oversized goggles, OTG (over-the-glasses) goggles, and goggles with unusual frame shapes may not interface cleanly with every breath box design. If possible, try the balaclava with your specific goggles before purchasing, or buy from retailers with good return policies.
