The same ones as used in motocross. Any of the big brands will fit. Fox Main Pros are a good value start at $65.
If you have a D2,
Magnetos are a tight fit and feel weird on your face
Dragon MDXs fit well
Utopias also suffer from a tight fit
I haven't used Oakleys so I dont know much about them
Whatever you get make sure it has rubber ridges on the strap to stop is sliding off your helmet.

Hey bro I've used $70ish Spy 'Targa' gogs for a few years and they're good, but the foam around the face aint top notch. I just got a pair of Blur gogs with my TLD lid and they are really nice - they fit well, are comfy and they look the goods.
The Oakley O-frames seem to be good value for money too. (although I haven't used them).

I run a D2 and Utopia's and find they fit fine. It's all about personal preference. You need to go to your local bike shop, see what he stocks, try another, and find a brand that your comfortable with and fits your budget.

dragon mdx's are sweet as and come in heaps of sick colours and patterns my lbs has ones with the heiniken logo on them and some other sick checkered and patterned ones they also have replacable lenses and you can get tearoffs for them. check em out
they fit great and have good ventilation so no fogging and have a rubber thingo on the band to stop them from sliding around

Yeah its not a big concern (I was talking about too dirtys btw not slayers, they fit well apparently). I own a pair and you wouldn't know until you put a pair of other smaller goggles on. Its such a small problem that I just randomly pick my Utopias or MDX's at a particular race.

Goggles are goggles man... you can pay $20,000 for the blingest pair of oakleys with all special tinted lenses or whatever, but they won't actually make any difference to what you can see, and unless you find a particular goggle uncomfortable it won't make much difference. I've used Spy Targas (dunno what happened to them come to think of it... not sure if I lost em or if they got wrecked somehow), Oakley O-frames, Blur B1s, Smith somethings, and Scott somethings (Sequence snow goggles I think). They're all the same thing when you're riding, just find something cheap, comfy and that you like the look of (oh and with tearoff posts if you ever ride in mud - but nearly all goggles have those anyway).
