Any of you paintballers that where glasses when playing...

I am starting to where glasses when playing paintballing but have noticed that they start to fog up. If you have any tips on how to prevent them from fogging up it will be much appreciated if you give me a shout.

Thanks

I have 2 pairs, one for everyday wear and a paintball pair.

These are basic lenses without any anti-reflection coating on but they do have a hard coat on them.
I use a good anti fog solution/paste such as fogdoc to prevent fogging.

I found that the Just Paintball H18 stuff is really good as well but lenses that have an anti-reflection coat don't accept anti fog solutions.
Normally apply before you play and reapply when needed.
Also a goggle fan is very helpful as well.

It's all about contacts for me.

Plastic lenses fog less than glass - goggle design and venting makes a difference too

Good defog is a must and I use either of these...

i found alot of the time it is not the glasses its the mask.
have always had to weare glasses when playing, and found alot of masks make them fog.
but a few are sweet, but its hard to find ones that work and feel nice.

I4's,Vents work sweet, have started using profits now, only issue is the lens clips dig in a bit due to the glasses frame

I use e-vents anyway. First time I put them on when paintballing they fogged up after 10 mins so I had to take them off, so that resulted in me not being able to shoot me dad!

I have had similar issues with my own but I also find that my thermal lense is pressing on my glasses when I play and it's a pain in the behind, anyone else had this issue?

I don't have this issue due to me having goggles that are suitable for glasses. On Just Paintball it shows what goggles are best for glasses. I use vents avatar, so it doesn't bother me.
