For those bright sunny days on the trail, what's your favorite snow goggle or sunglasses? What do you do to help the lens from fogging up or icing up?

I wear glasses so I have some glacier glasses frames with my prescription lenses. They are polarized and have UV protection built in. As for keeping them fog free, there's a product called "Cat Crap" that I discovered years ago. It was created to keep ski goggles free of fog so I picked some up to try out. I've been using it ever since.
That's all for now. Take care and until next time...be well.

PS - Mewolf - Do you have plans for your snow goggles or did you make your own? It looks like an interesting project.Last edited by snapper; 12-09-2020, 02:25 PM.👍 1Comment

Depending on the brightness, I've had good luck with ESS wrap-around sunglasses with the mirrored gray lenses, or Martin (less expensive) or Varney (more costly) mirrored glacier glasses, or Oakley ski goggles with the densest dark lens. I second the recommendation about Cat Crap for the fogging. I've also found that when the conditions are blowy and snowy, the goggles work better than the glasses.👍 1Comment

I have used glacier glasses and goggles by Bolle, and both have their place. Used some other military goggles as well. Overall the goggles are better for high winds etc. of the two. When looking at a new set, look for those which cover 100% of the UV spectrum. Believe it or not, not all do. Reliable brands to check are Bolle, ESS, Julbo, and Smiths, and more.Comment
