Goggles?

[sxyrx7]

Im looking to replace me pro grip anti fog anti scratch goggles and they fog up all the time and are so scratched i find it hard to see

im not too keen to get more progrip gear after the last lot only lasted 6 months of riding

what is everyone elce using and how do you find them in the wet and mud?

[green machine]

Well mate...i sweat buckets when i ride and tried Progrip Scott,Smith and Thor....i'm not saying they're no good,they were just no good for me.I now have Oakley O Frames and won't wear anything else,the lenses are really easy to get in and out and the only time they fogged on me was when i had stopped and it was pissing with rain.....even then they cleared the instant i moved again.I have even got 4 of my riding mates into them and they are rapt with them too.

Sweet, my progrips are scratched to hell and I got some smiths with roll offs adn I hate those too. How much were the Oakleys?

Mr Motorcycles do,i only shop there so couldn't tell you who else does.......

o frames start from $79.95, i use them as well mostly, they seem to fog less than other goggles in my opinion, dual pain lens are the best bet for the ultimate no fog pretection, or smith do a turbo fan goggel that actually has an extrator fan on them,

with googles it pays to try them on with your helmet to make sure they fit well,

Do they have a roll off system?

sure dose i found out after getting my progrip one they dont fit so well but once spent yah sorta end up putting up with. Also need new ones myself i found that this is my second pair of progrip both have delaminated otherr wise seam to hold up guess should just replace the lense more often.

[Robbo]

Have you tried a pair of these. They are called Magic Goggles.

[Chia]

I wear Oakley Crowbar Goggles $120 from Mr Motorcycles...
Before these I had the Oakley MX O Frame - they're great too and bit cheaper.

I would happily recommed Oaks to ya....

I have some cheap progrips.

Scratched the lens up on my first rainy ride - what did I learn from that? Dont wipe the lens with your hand/gloves, you'll scratch them. If you rub at dirt, it scratches the lens, so flush it off.

New lens was $18. They've had a year of use since, with minimal light scratches from washing and waxing them.

So now if needed I rinse them under the camelbak hose, and flick the water off.
Pre-ride apply wax at home, and gently buff with a tissue.

I purchased another set with light sensitive lenses, but I find these have heavier foam etc, and dont seem to fit as well as the old pair.

all the roll offs (pro grip, smith, scott) all use the same mounting holes, so you can just get a smith pre drilled oakley shape lens and run what ever roll offs you like,

Have tried practicaly all the brands to date, and have never really found a pair that sits well with me in my hulmut, vision and breathing taken into consederation, and althought I always have a set of goggles perched on the back side of my helmets using "quick straps" in case of an emergency, I only always wear safety glasses, and these can be bought at any safety clothing outlet store for about $40.00

I just got a pair of Smith Intake yesterday with the fox armor and the F16 clothing set I bought from BTO they look like they are pretty cool.
,
They have Oakley O frames on close out for $20USD at the moment!

Here http://www.btosports.com/c/GogglesCloseOut

The fox Launch gear fits well and looks good quality. Best price I could get here was $280-00. I paid about $150NZD for the Armour from BTO took less than a week!

I know this sounds werd but if you spit in them and wipe them around inside and outside you will find that they wont fog up, used it the last couple of rides (rain and cold etc...) and didn't fog up and im using Thor goggles...

Divers also do the same thing to stop fogging up underwater...
