What We Love
- • Magnetic mask stays in place better than conventional face covering
- • Good helmet compatibility
- • Solid visibility in mixed light
Worth Knowing
- • Only works with Anon MFI-compatible goggles and accessories
- • Youth-specific sizing; make sure it fits now, not later
- • Magnetic connection works best when clean and dry
- • Warmer and more sealed than a loose gaiter, which some kids may resist on milder days
The Anon Tracker 2.0 Goggles + MFI Face Mask solves a specific problem: kids pulling down, twisting, or losing a separate face covering. MFI stands for Magnetic Face Mask Integration. The included mask looks and feels like a standard fabric neck gaiter, but a thin plastic insert containing magnets sits inside its upper edge. Those magnets connect to the bottom of the goggles, holding the mask against the nose and cheeks without having to tuck it beneath the frame.
A breathable mesh panel over the mouth and nose allows heat and moisture to escape, which helps manage fog while keeping the face covered. When the mask isn’t needed, kids can disconnect it from the goggles and pull it down around their neck.
The magnetic connection is easy for kids to manage and keeps the mask aligned better than a separate gaiter. The goggles fit smaller faces well, work with most kids’ helmets, and provide solid visibility in mixed light. The closer seal is especially useful on cold or windy days, although some kids may find it too warm in milder weather.
