Broke my trusty 7 year arnette goggles recently so just bought some Oakley 'A' Frames...just wondering if anyone uses them.

Do they fog up at all ??? -

I am pretty worried about this as I have very bad eyesight and have to wear goggles at all times as otherwise my contact lenses freeze up.

Any info would be useful

Cheers

Don't use them myself but a mate has said that they work well

No they are fine if they have a vent in the top of the lense. Ive had know problems with oakley goggle ever. Only if you wear a helmet n have the helmet half on half off top of head. when you've had a big "get off" and had to clear some snow out of them.

As long as they are dual lensed, well vented, and have an anti-fog coating (come to think of it, what goggles don't nowadays?!) they should be fine.

Alternatively I can seriously recommend Electric EG-1s!

Got some this year - and some for the current Mrs MartinM. One pair Persimmon, one pair VR28 - so mainly for low level light/when it's actually snowing.

Absolutely fantastic - if they do fog up when you put them on, or when you pull them down from over your bobble hat, they soon clear once you get going and get some air going through them.

Very comfortable - the foam is sandwiched with different density layers. The foam on £30-£40 frames just doesn't compare at all.

Big enough to wear glasses underneath (small lenses admittedly)

The bloke in the shop said to just never touch the inside surfaces at all - even with the silky bag thing they come with.

Lenses are replaceable/changeable at about £30 if you scratch them badly or just want to change the colour and we paid £69 per pair. Seems to be a monopoly on prices - we bought in local shops at the same price as the Internet.

We use (just) sunglasses when it's bright - the A frames with the 'fire' lenses are cool, but not £120 cool.

We'd give them 5/5
