Re: which one?

Everybody has their own opinion on which mask to get and what they like.
Honestly any of the higher grade masks will do.
I personally like the JT masks that use the Dual Thermal lense like the Proflex and Flex8.
Profilers, Dye I3's, and Empire Events are good to go.

Re: which one?

Empire E-Vents and V-force Grills tend to be popular. I like my E-vents. I've also heard good things about the Save Phace stuff, but I haven't seen any in person.

Re: which one?

It is, as SnakeEyes said, very much a personal preference. There are a lot of things that can affect fogging, not least of which is fit - how you breathe, and where you breathe will impact your goggles.

I have V-Force Profilers, and they've served me well. One thing to keep in mind with V-Force goggles, however, is unlike JT's, they don't use a double-paned lens to combat fogging, they use a coating which you will have to reapply from time to time.

Ouch, I didn't know that. What is the coating like? Is it a spray, a wipe, or a thin gel?

It's a spray. You squirt it on the inside of the lenses, and then spread it with a microfiber cloth, and let it dry. Doesn't take long - the key thing is that you're not buffing it in or off, but just leaving a thin coating.

A lot of people (myself included) miss this, and one day suddenly find themselves fogging.

Re: which one?

I love my E-Vents with the thermal lens. Even without the thermal lens they work wonders.

Re: which one?

My suggest is you try on several and find the one that fits your face. I have found if you get a good seal around your eyes it fogs less

Re: which one?

I have a profiler. I love it. It does fog though. I like to use these though. Work great. On application a week and your ready to go.
