Fogging profits

I recently bought some sly profits and after wearing them for the first time found that they fogged really badly. Throughout the day I swapped lenses to see of this would help but still fog. Basicly they became unusable.

Has any else had this issue? Or, more hopefully, solutions?

dont wanna do the whole suck eggs speach, but seen it done by some of the most experianced people, did u remember to remove the film on the inside of the lenses?

my choice of headwear has a big difference too!!

also, when i tried them on i found them very clostrophobic, and reckon a bit of puffing would certainly challenege the thermal properties!

I had a set for over a year and had no issue's with regard to fogging,to be honest they were probably one of the better goggle systems i have worn in my opinion,only issue was with the ear foam making it difficult to hear and the difficulty of finding replacement lenses.

The rainguard came separate so I didnt put it in and I just had a look to see if there was any film on the inside of the lense but there isn't. Really gutted as I love the look, fit and feel of it but if it keeps doing this they will have to go. Does anyone think it could be because the bottom of the mask curves in, making it harder for your breath to escape, keeping it circulating in the mask? Could I not had it tight enough?
Thanks for all your help so far.

Wet the inside of the lens, rub the corner of a bar of soap lightly n it then work the soap with your finger around the lens, when it dries polish it with a soft dry cloth, hey presto, no fogging!

You can do the same with a spot of washing up liquid, or even a proprietary anti-fog compound or spray.

I tried putting the straps in different positions, did start with using it as a single then tried the way they recommended. This did give me slightly more time before fogging. I will try the soap trick but feel a bit annoyed because I feel I should not have too, my events never fogged on me.
