okay so i've never skied with anything but a-frame oakleys, but i saw a pair of spy's that looked pretty cool. i've had some problems with my oakleys fogging up in the backcountry when your working a bit harder than you do inbounds. anyone else have any input on googles?? who makes your favorite non fogging googles?

A-frames, o-frames, smith fuses, and spy soldiers.

All are comfy and none of them fog up during regular in-bounds or park riding.
I'm pretty convinced any goggle will fog once you start sweatin from hiking/working tho, so I usually just take mine off my face when I get heated up.

I mainly use o-frames now tho, since they are cheap, comfortable, dont fog, and fit w/ or w/out with my helmet really well without needing any kind of additional strap or adapter.

fuses have the opening and closing lense thing on top to reduce fogging

I just got some smith prodages for $50 on sale, if you have the money go with the turbo fans I used a pair once and they never fog up. over all I say go with smith or anon.

you can prevent any pair of goggles from fogging up on you. just only wear a shell so you freeze your ass off and don't sweat. that's what i do.

in the park there really isn't a fog problem, its just hiking and skiing hard all day on a powder day. and yeah wearing less clothing is an option except that on one particular bc country outing that would have meant hypothemia, it was cold enough at -14 with a good deal of frozen clothing on that night without anything but a snow cave for shelter
