List of products by manufacturer Kroop's Goggles

Kroops Goggles have become a very widely used skydiving goggle worldwide.


In the early 1940's a boot maker named Israel Kroop was asked by a local jockey to develop an alternative to the bulky goggles worn at the time. Being highly creative, he designed a cutting edge goggle, both slim and lightweight with outstanding peripheral vision and optical clarity. The design was quickly adopted by jockeys throughout the country, and in the mid 1950's other sports began to adopt the Kroop's goggle, including skydivers.  These goggles can now be found in nearly every corner of the globe on everyone from medivac helicopter personnel to speed boat racers to Kentucky Derby winners.
