New Oakley Line Miner fog problem

I've had a pair of line miners or about 3 weeks, and last weekend they've started to fog whenever I stop moving. It's been quite warm, between +2 and -2, the fog disappears once I start moving again. I have 2 lenses Hi-Pink Prizms and Jade Iridium Prizms, the fog problem happens to both lenses. I'm unsure of whether this is just because of the heat or some other problem. Does anyone have some advice on how to fix this problem?

have you ever wiped the inside of the lens? if so the oakley lens’s dont like this and the antifog essentially stops working.

Hm, kinda weird then (considering we’re talking new goggles). Do you have a face tube or something over your mouth? That’ll send hot air straight up into your goggs and fog the hell out of them. If not idk what the issue is. you can help alleviate the problem by pulling your goggles straight off your face and back in place, rapidly, over and over but obviously that’s just a temporary fix

I have a face mask but not over my mouth or nose and I have a toque on as well maybe taking on of those off would solve the problem

Do you leave your goggles in your bag after skiing or do you let them air out? Is the fog in between the two lenses or inside only?
