Default Rain Gear - Glasses

Anyone know of any glasses that won't fog in the rain/cold? I wear a balaclava which makes my breath go up to my goggles which cause them to fog and difficult to see. I guess perhaps a full face helmet would work but I prefer my half helmet.

Thanks and ride safe,

I know they have them out there,try doing a googgle search for anti-fog googles or something like that.I have RX wiley-x's and i just use some of that anti-fog paste then wipe off and i'm good for a few hours.Chap stick works as well!

just got some RAIN CLEAR off the net. did some searches and the site looked state of the art. For cars but showed some one using it on bike and I would imagine glasses ok too?. have not used it yet and with s&h it was 10 bucks. probably a rip off. thought about using lemon pledge for glasses/goggles/windsheild mentioned on this forum??

Jeff,
I used the panoptix. They're double lens and the inside lenhas a coating to resist fogging. They never failed while I was a motor officer. Good luck.

I too use the Panoptix. The only time they fog is if the foam gets waterlogged - like in a monsoon. Easy fix is pop the foam out and keep going.

Another vote for the Panoptix. Great glasses.

If you want to keep your own glasses there is a paste that they have been pushing at all the bike shows for years. Not sure what the name is but they always show you one side with it on not fogging and the other side without it fogging up.I'm sure somebody will pitch in with the name.

Divers use toothpaste when they forget their antifog drops.

Which do you prefer more; the half helmet or being able to see???
Look I made a funny....
glasses with a foam back; Panoptics, Wiley X XL's or Rain-X anti-fog ...bunch of other stuff as well.
