About Dragon Optical
Since the beginning, Dragon™ set out to be the leading independent eyewear and accessories brand in the active youth lifestyle market by supporting the best athletes with the best product, while remaining connected to core retailers and consumers. That mission still holds true today and is the driving force behind the company’s success and heritage.
In 1993, in a garage in Capo Beach, CA, founder Will Howard aimed to build a company that encompassed his passions for surfing, snowboarding, and riding dirt bikes. Enthusiasm and knowledge of the market bore Dragon’s first, and still, primary product, sunglasses. The company began distributing to local surf shops before expanding to Hawaii and Florida, and later Australia and other international markets.
Dragon gradually extended its reach as well, developing innovative, diversified products in all-eyewear categories. With an emphasis on creating functional, high-quality merchandise that appealed to the youth market and pushed the status quo, Dragon introduced a number of innovative products early on. “We saw an opportunity to add snow goggles to the lineup by aligning ourselves with the emerging snowboard market,” says founder Will Howard. “We loved riding and realized snowboarders were treated as second-class citizens just like we were as a start-up, so we thought that would be a good match.” From there, Dragon recruited snowboarders Jamie Lynn, Chris Roach, and a few others. Many years and many rides days later, Dragon has established itself as a leader in the snow goggle business.
More recently, Dragon’s innovative approach has lead to further market-leading developments, including the first-ever sunglasses and goggles made from 100% renewable origins. The development of the ECO (Environmentally Conscious Optics) series, a product originally inspired by longtime Dragon team surfer Rob Machado, represents the ambitious, avant-garde, athlete-inspired mindset that Dragon was founded upon.
Through it all, Dragon has continued to be true to its roots. Original snow team rider Jamie Lynn, along with Dragon’s first surf team rider, Shane Dorian, remain on the team roster today. With top-tier product and athletes in mind, Dragon’s roster has grown to include some of the best surfers, snowboarders, moto riders, and wakeboarders in the world.
Still run by the founder, Dragon remains a youthful, free-thinking, alternative, edgy brand that appeals to the core participants of action sports. Dragon endures as one of the few independent brands in its field, and will continue to grow and lead the youth lifestyle market.

Dragon Optical Reviews
These goggles were great. Matched my daughter's coat perfectly! They never fogged on her and fit her face well with room to grow.
This product was listed when I searched for ski goggles and checked the box to narrow it down to woman only. I warn you, no fully grown woman could wear these and they're for a small child!
I really like the styling, but they will not stay put. I constantly have to readjust them as they slide down my nose. When I lean forward they hang off of my face, and when I put them on top of my head they fall off when I recline or lean forward slightly. The lenses have large scratches now, after 2 weeks. Unless you get some Chums (Eyewear Retainer) to go with them, don't bother.
First off let me say I've had Spy's, Von Zipper, Electric, Oakley, Arnette, Hoven, etc. These are by far my fave pair of sunnies I've ever had. I got the matte with grey lens. I love the look of the matte, subtle but powerful at the same time. The lenses are crystal clear. I love the rubber nose pieces, keeps them in place without having to constantly keep pushing them back on your face. They fit like a glove, I have a semi big head FYI. They are a pretty good size, bigger than average but not so big it looks ridiculous. Bottom line, these sunnies are legit. Highly recommended.
These sunglasses rock! They rock so much my girlfriend stole them from me.
I purchased these Dragon goggles for my boyfriend's birthday. He absolutely loved them! We went riding that weekend and they were great! I tried them and almost stole them from him!
Rad - I love these. They are a tad bit Yoko Ono - which is what I wanted. I also have trouble finding a pair that doesn't give me a headache - these don't.
Dragon Mace - Larger goggle. Good fit, good peripheral vision, well made and fits very good with helmet. Overnight delivery is great!
Phase - These glasses are probably too big for my face, but I couldn't resist. I ordered two different pairs of glasses thinking I would return one of them… instead I kept both. If you're looking for sunglasses with excessive coverage and the uni-lens look, you'll be very happy with these. Actually proportionate considering how big they appear online.
Dragon Phase - Since I've received my sunglasses, I have been nothing but pleased. The entire ordering, shipping, and mailing process was very smooth with Zappos.com. The free overnight delivery is something I couldn’t pass up on, and the sunglasses actually came earlier than expected. I have been telling all my friends to order off of Zappos.com and you should too.
New fishing glasses - My hubby loves to fish, and needed a good pair for the glare on the water. He said they fit well and are a good sun block.
Good pair of Shades - I live by the beach so I needed a good looking yet reliable pair of shades and when I saw these I definitely had to get 'em. Nice sleek look to them and you can't go wrong with Dragon's 1 year warranty. Not to mention Zappos shipping was fast as always, Highly Recommended~!~
Get a little steamed up - Great look, awesome comfort, don't plan on using them if you do any hiking or cross country. If you don't have any speed they tend to fog up rather quickly. But if you like going down the slopes, these are a great choice.
