Search for PB goggles

So I've been looking everywhere, all over paintball online stores, and I can't make a decision. I need a pair of paintball goggles (no ballistic grade, only pb approved). JT is the way to go, but I have one issue. I already have a pair of jt goggles, took the mask off.. however the foam is so rough it nearly cuts my face, and the field of vision is terrible.

So I really would like some suggestions for a goggle with:
-good field of vision (very important)
-softer foam
- Not to insanely bulky

Any suggestions? (links to retailer as well if possible..?)

Thanks

Jt's are some of the best out there. They make 3 different sized goggles , all having different FOV's. The ones I have used since I started are the spectra series (260 degree FOV) , the elites only have 180 and the newer QLS have 270 degree.
The spectra's are also have softer foam.

Proto Pro Axis or the new Dye I4... IMO those are the best two pb googles on the market.

I was never a fan of grills... I had a couple of them and they always seemed to fall apart each season.

I have similar problems.

One additional problem, is there any PB-approved goggle that is not really bulky to the point where I need a scope riser for every gun?

JT's or Brass Eagle are your best bet.

For JT, you can actually cut down the foam to make it lower profile in front of your face.
