In the past I have used fog city and have been fairly pleased with them. I recently purchased a foggy mask and it REALLY works. One doesn't have to stick anything on the shield. I now can leave the shield down even when stopped and there is no trace of condensation at all. In the rain I don't need to "crack open" the shield and get rain inside the shield any more. Great product!!

Like I said, I liked Fog City OK but there were times I would still get condensation inside the shield, especially when sitting at stop lights on cold mornings unless I opened the visor. I would also get fogging in rainstorms. I made the mistake of putting one of the shields that darkens in bright sunlight on one shield. It lasted about 3 months then the coating started pealing off, $40.00 shield ruined. For me this works better. I can change from dark to light shield without adding a $20 Fog City liner to each one.

I have had a Fog City Hyperoptik on my Schoei helmet for three years now, never any problems. Still as clear as when new.
I did buy a Foggy mask, but found my glasses steamed up. I offered to give it away on a forum, but got no takers, that seems to reflect their popularity.

I bought a FOGGY face shield. Does not work well in extreme cold. Below freezing. It doesn't fog the shield, but it will freeze due to the condensation inside, which in turns freezes your face. I know from experience. :cry:

I don't wear glasses. I installed it exactly according to the instructions and have NO fogging. It seldom gets below freezing here. For ME it was a good buy.

I bought a RESPRO Foggy about a year ago. In the past year I have ridden in temps. from the 20's into the 100's and this $15.00 product has solved all my fogging problems. Either with glasses or without since I've gone back to contacts.

Even with the FogCity in the temps and moisture we get here in Oregon in the Fall through Spring, that would fog up until I got the Foggy. In the 20's it hasn't froze on me.

I consider the Foggy the best $15.00 investment I've ever made and haven't bothered to take it out of the helmet. It does make the helmet tighter to take off and put on with a balaclava in the cold though.

Why not a anti fog cloth?
I used them on my ski goggles, worked well.
Anyone use these?
