GENERAL FAQ
How can I tell what goggle style I have?
Need a new lens for your goggle but unsure what model you have? Send over a photo through our chat bubble or shoot as us an email with a photo and we can let ou know what model you have!
Please keep in mind we have been around for 15+ years and a number of models have been discontinued as style changes so we may not carry spare parts for your goggles anymore.
Why is my lens fogging?
Goggles can fog up when warm and humid moisture enters your goggles and comes into contact with the cold lens, the water vapor condenses into droplets and accumulates between lens layers
Make sure your goggle is fitting snug on your face, you may need to tighten the strap using the adjusters on the side/back of the strap. If there is space between your face and the goggle (not sitting tightly against the bridge of your nose for example) cold air may get into the goggle, which may cause your lens to fog.
After a day of riding, make sure you allow your goggle to air dry before storing it away. Avoid direct heat as this can wear down glues and cause further damage to your lens.
How should I clean and store my goggles/goggle lens?
All goggles come with a microfiber bag for cleaning and storage. Gently blot away any moisture on the goggle lens. Do not use gloves or other abrasive materials to clean your goggle lens as is can scratch your lens/ wipe away protective films.
Ensure you are wiping your goggles with the provided microfiber storage bag if you happen to touch the lens with your hands/ fingers. The oils on our ski can wear away protective films on lens. We reccomend you use the microfiber bag for all handling.
Do you sell spare parts or replacement lenses for sunglasses?
At the moment all Sunglasses are made as whole unit in our factory, meaning we do not assemble at our warehouse so we are not left with spare parts. We are actively working on this but it's a big change and takes time.
What materials are your sunglasses made of?
All of our sunglasses are made with acetate using a high-quality plastic material derived predominantly from natural sources like wood pulp and cotton fibers, making it an eco-friendly choice for sunglasses. Its durability, flexibility, and lightness make it an excellent material for frames, providing users with superior comfort and adaptability to various lifestyle needs. Acetate frames can also exhibit vibrant colors and unique patterns, allowing for an extensive range of stylish and customizable eyewear designs.
We also utilize a blend of acetate and metal sunglasses which combine the best of two worlds. This fusion creates frames that are not only lightweight and comfortable for various lifestyle needs but also exceedingly robust and stylish, presenting a broad spectrum of innovative and customizable eyewear designs.
Help. My sunglasses sit crooked!
All Ashbury sunglasses utilize acetate, a relatively moldable material. Everyone's heads are different, and sometimes our own 2 ears may sit at different heights on our head. If you poop you sunglasses on and the feel crooked, simply just fill a bowl with warm water and place you're glasses in for about 10 minutes. Pull them out and lightly twist/ bend accordingly.

The goggles don’t look the same as on your website as they do in person. Why is that?

You're out of stock! Are you out of stock for the rest of the season?
We re-stock at various points throughout the season, but this will depend on the demand and remaining inventory for specific products. This also means that even though we might re-stock, it may not include all products that have already sold out.

All shipments leave from our warehouse in Canada. Shipments outside Canada may be subject to delays at Customs and may be subject to Customs fees when delivered.
Duties and taxes are determined by the customs agency within the destination country. Although charges are not always incurred, assessment of duties and taxes will be based on the value of the order and the Tax-free threshold for goods imported into the destination country.
The customer is responsible for any and all Customs and Brokerage Fees.
In the event that the Customs and Brokerage Fees are NOT paid for by the customer, the package will be considered abandoned and the customer will forfeit any possibility of a refund.

Do you ship to my country?
You bet!
However, we only offer free shipping on all North American orders over $100
Do you ship to P.O. boxes?
Unfortunately, we do not ship to P.O boxes. UPS is our primary shipping partner, and this is their policy. Bindings are big. P.O boxes are not. Many P.O. boxes located in rural areas do not have a physical address at which packages can be left. This leaves you waiting for your package to be returned to us, or shipped back out, with more shipping fees, and greater potential for lost packages.
Should you still choose to enter a P.O box as your shipping address, and the package is returned to us due to a delivery failure, or failure to pick up from the post office in a timely matter, any new shipping fees will fall on you, the customer.
What if I don't receive my package?
In the case that your package's tracking # shows that it has arrived at the destination, but you don't have it, check with your family members, loved ones, neighbors, or roommates. 9/10 times it's there somewhere. Remain calm. The next step is that we strongly recommend contacting the courier with your tracking number. They will have specific information on where the package was left. If it still does not turn up, please get in touch with us, and we will open an investigation with the courier. This can take some time, so please be patient. New products will NOT be shipped out until the investigation is completed.
