[Closed] Goggles that don't pinch your Schnoz

I've just bought some 100% Accuri goggles in the CRC Black Friday sale but they pinch my nose. It's not like I have a particularly wide schnoz so it was a bit of a surprise. Can anyone suggest goggles that may be more generously proportion in the nose fit department?

Just trim/cut off the offending parts of foam? Custom fit goggles!

Expensive but these

I find the helmet design also changes the feel with stuff great on full face but not on enduro lids

Do they still pinch when you've got your helmet on?

I've got a wide (and wonky) bridge - took a punt on some Thor goggles and they don't pinch at all.

Not the same model here, but they look like they have nice, wide nose parts -  https://www.thormx.com/products/?categoryId=3603

Yes. If anything it's worse.

All goggles close your nostrils in my experience. Don't be scared to take a craft knife to the central part of the foam. My Accuri is down to the frame to make way for my hooter.
