Alright now. I need help on goggles, not geriatrics.
Keeping dust out and anti fog are kinda mutually exclusive. Anti fog works best with air flow. The anti fog lenses and chemicals you can put on the inside of the lense can really only do so much. Air flow is the best "anti fog" component. But, with air flow comes dust.
The Sand version of googles are designed to keep the fine dust particle out of the interior of the goggle. They have a denser foam around the top portion on the google. Dense foam restricts the sand from entering the google, but it also restricts the air so you will get more fogging with them.
Mutually exclusive. What your trying to do is find the one that offers the best compromise. I've heard some people get the high air flowing goggles and put some Vasoline on the top foam to reduce the air flow some. I'd say get some from Palmer as I'm sure he goes to Costco to buy his as he prolly goes through a case load of that stuff being the biggest ASS we all know
I forgot my jar next to that barrel I had you over the other day, was it empty?
German word for vasoline wienerslippin!
At this point it may be best to take your helmet into a local cycle gear and start trying goggle sets.... You can always order the lenses you need or like to go with the goggle that you like best.
I used to use the Fox Desert, and hated the way the foam always took a crap. I've since switched to the Smith Fuels with the light sensitive AFC replacement lens.
