Goggles

Aviator Goggles, normally worn around the forehead, are a traditional symbol for the leader of a digidestined team, usually referred to as a "Goggle Boy". Throughout each of the manga and the first four seasons of the anime, the leader of the Chosen Children would often wear goggles, as well as partner with a dragon- or reptile-type Digimon. This rule was broken in Digimon Data Squad with Marcus, who never wore any, though he did partner with the reptile-type Agumon.

Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01
wears a pair of goggles. In order to motivate a frightened Biyomon, he explains that his grandfather gave the goggles to him after Taichi saw a friend being bullied and didn't know what to do. They had belonged to a friend of his grandfather who was brave and loved his friends, and would often say "Courage will give you wings to fly". However, the friend had died of an illness, and Taichi's grandfather had kept them to remember him. They were given to Taichi to remind him to never forget his courage, and that he must be brave to protect his friends.

Taichi also wears the goggles while flying on AeroVeedramon Zeromaru. His grandfather also calls them "Goggles of Courage and Friendship", Taichi's two main qualities.

Much later, in the summer of 2003, Davis reflects upon the meaning of the goggles Tai gave him, and what makes a good leader.
