As those that I've skirmished with in the last couple of games will know, I have been using the metal grill type mask for games. Its great in that it does not fog but it does screw up your vision a bit and is now starting to rust. I'm worried about catching a splintered bb in the eye. OUCH! So i want to get a decent set of ausalt goggles, not neccessarily a mask, because i'd like to use the scope on my weapon for a change. So can anyone give me some good advice on a set of decent goggles that do not fog, or at least are very resistant to fogging? In the last game Goliath told me one set but I forgot the brand.

I have Bolle goggles that work very well against fogging. Last time they didn't fog till the last few games :/ When they fog I just clean it and it's fine again for a long while ;D
I think it's the X800

Thanks. What do those Bolles cost? I can get you clones for $150. The real ones are $400. The clones work really, really well - I have a set and I use them all the time now.

Oh it's actually X500, but there is a model X800
Search for them online? You can find them in KWS btw.

X500s are really traditional goggles. big and chunky. X800s are sleek and small. with a gap all around the lense for ventilation.

My ESS Profile NVGs don't fog, rather condensation drips out the bottom. It's like Oakley hockey visors if you've ever seen them - somehow the moisture build up that would cause fogging is transferred to the bottom of the lens and...well, "excreted". ;D

ESS ICE shooting glasses rock too =P They won't get in the way of your stock when using the sights - which is why I use shooting glasses instead of goggles.
They do fog when cold however because of your own body heat =S but they haven't fogged on me in the heat yet!
