Currently have two pairs of Dragon Apx and am not impressed. Both lenses scratched very easily just from falls and both pairs have had fogging issues and have acquired moisture inside the lens itself between mirrored film layer and the actual lens material.

I am now looking at....

1. Smith I/07
2. Anon M2
3. POC Lid

For anyone that has these goggles could you please let me know how you liked them so I don't waste anymore money the second time around.

I run the i/ox aswell and i am pretty satisfied. So why did i choose the i/ox over i/o7? Fit. I went to a local stored and tried on both of them, and no doubt, the i/ox fit my face way better. I also looked into the anon due to the lens swap system, sooo dope, but the fit was horrible for me, although my co-worker went with the anon over the smith.

So hey, they are all premium goggles with fast lens swap systems and none of them should fog up really (if they fit you!). Pick the one that fits you better....

So it looks like you're sagging your goggles?

Cool, the i/o7 is a bit smaller as you probably know, but for some reason it didn't fit too well with my helmet, while the Anon was just pure shit (on my face!!). Hope you find the right goggle :)

I have the smith I/O and Oakley A-Frame 2.0 w/Prizm lens and I just bought the smith I/O7s, just because i wanted to step up to a bigger goggle. They are so dope and I really have no complaints about Smith products! best anti fog on the market for sure!!
