hiya guys looking in to gettin new mask and have narrowed it down to these two choices which one is the best in terms of comfort, not steaming up, weight and all that sort of thing any help would be great guys thanks

The Dye i4's are not that much more expensive than the proto's, I'd recommend holding out for a little while and getting them. The i4's are more comfortable, have better vision and pretty much the same profile as the axis. I know i4's weren't on your list but they are basically better proto's. I own and use both BTW.

iv got an i3pro now so im leaning toward the axis but have never worn an save phace or seen one on someone so wondered what they are like. i dont like the i4s at all tried them on and dont like the way they feel and not that keen on the look of them to be honest

the protos are like the i'4s but are slightly heaveyer have sligltly less field vistion but offer more protection however i find it slightly difficult to breath in them. but i hate the save phace masks for so many reasons to many to talk about

I'm 6 ft 5" and I wear i4's :eek:.

You should see if you can try a pair of each goggle for a game and see which you like best. It's one thing trying them on the side of the field and another thing using them on the field ;).
