I have a pair of Scott and Bolle I think. The second pair have dark orange lenses which help a little. What ever you do don't get them at the slope because you are going to pay top dollar for it. If you are just starting out go to Modells or Dick's. At Dick's you'll prpbably get a better selection. I see you are from Jersey so your best bet would be Princton Ski shops.
Soda for jackets do a search on the-house. They usually have some good deals there.
