Hey everyone, I need your help deciding on what goggles to wear. Mine were stolen last week and Skirmish, (saw some AOers there). I had JT Envaders (sp) and they were fine, but I figured maybe there are newer and better ones out there. I wear glasses, which affected my decision last time because the JTs fit over my glasses. They never fogged on me but my glasses did, so I am wondering if getting the fan from JT will help this or be necesary. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

i would suggest a proteus with a fan it wont fog and the fan will keep your glasses nice and clear.

I LOVE Flex-7s. Totally customizable and all that good stuff. VForces are completely fugly IMO. They say it gives the best peripheral vision but my Flex doesn't hinder my peripheral at all (I can't see the side of my mask.)

I also wear glasses,and I had a JT Envader which would fog up somtimes,and my glasses would fog sometimes too. But then I got a VFORCE MORPH,and fell in love with it.I never have anymore problems with the lens fogging or my glasses fogging.You can take the lens out in just a matter of seconds to clean it, or just to change the lens.They are really comfortable also.:)

I've got a V-Force Shield, and the sucker has never fogged on me. Ever. I also wear glasses and this thing fits straight over them with room to spare. As far as I know the Morph is a fancy version of the Shield, so go for it! Great masks... very clear lenses and wide angles of view, as well as extrodinarilly comfortable.

I too am cursed with bad eyes and havwe had problems with goggles until i got some flex-7s. They havent fogged once and since i put a Vents strap on them gettin em on and off is no problem, though the Strps arent easy to come by.

i have glasses too and have a proteus with a x-wind fan and it works fine, so i say either flex-7s or the proteus with a fan.

Thanks eveyone, I am so mad about losing my mask, and now I have to look for a new one, it is a pain. But alas it is time for something new, and your suggestions have helped. I am seeing many diferent prices for the Morph, and by all your suggestions this one seems to be the best. But if for the same price I could get another good JT with a fan, is that better? I am seeing some Flex 7 and Izes with fans for almost $100. The prices I am seeing for morphs is $75-$90. Does anyone else know other price alternatives or cheaper places to buy? Thanks again!

The Morph is the best mask ever made, I love mine to death. They're super comfy, never fog, and the lense is super easy to remove fast. I personally wear contact lenses (I used to wear glasses), I suggest them myself if you wouldn't mind the cleaning and all. They give you better peripheral vision and never "get in the way" of doing some things (they also never fog).

Morphs for $60 (http://store.yahoo.com/actionvillage/paintball-goggles-and-safety-gear-goggles-v-force-goggles.html)
If you can't bring yourself to pay that much, look into a Shield. I used to have one before I got my Morph, the only difference is that the lower portion of the Shield is stiff instead of flexible (I personally prefer the flexible bottom), and it comes with a chinstrap and neck guard (I personally never used either).

Now why couldn't I find the morphs for that price!?!? I must be slow tonight. I ma currently bidding on a proteus with a fan for $70. If I lose the auction, then I think it will be the morph. Thanks again everyone!

Get Vforces, they are the best with glasses and such. Plus the lenses are giant and have good vision.

I would 100% go for the JT Proteus. Not onl;y dose it fit snug af freakishly comfortable, you throw in a fan, it will not fog. Very Clear Lense and great ventalation(eben without the fan)

i personally would go with a morph or a shield, they never fog, are comfy, and takes like 5 seconds to take out the lense to clean it.
