I've had my Flex-7 for 3 years now and they've never done my wrong, of course they do fog up really bad if you dont get a fan, which I don't have. As a ref I see alot of players come in with Invisions and Proteus', personally I like the looks of both, however after playing game after game with my friends Invision and the head refs Proteus I have come to the conclusion that the Proteus is better, the Invision foam I like but it hurts your ears and sometimes your forehead in my opinion, back to the foam, it is comfortable but unlike the Jt's they dont soak up the sweat so it tends to run down your face alot, this may or may not be a good thing, I think its a bad, the Proteus on the other had fits nice and snug and doesnt hurt on any part of my head when I wear it, in fact sometimes I actually forget I have it on, no joke, they fit me that good, but this is just my opinion on the 2....Proteus is my next mask....

I Always liked the Flex 7's.Sure they looked kind of....odd, but it protects my Big Noggin', and compared to the PMI XRay i used to wear,this is ehaven. I Simply looooooooove the foam around the eyes,on the goggles themselves, very comfy. I've yet to try one of those newfangled Invision's, but the ape look, like Tremis mentioned earlier. Now, Those nice VForce Masks....:
: I love those,too bad I'm broke,or i'd defiantly buy one of the Morphs. I played with one once,at a Lcoal tourney here,after some little kid snatched my Xray off of our Team table,and ended up sitting on it. Needless to say,I wanted to obliterate the wee dandy child. [The mother didn't even pay for it, she just ranted on how I shouldn't leave things on my TEAM'S TABLE.] Oh yeah,and The Morph wasn't half bad, it gave me a sweet field of vision, didn't fog up in the mid summer heat, and it look Totally cool,even on my Big cranium.
But the Advice Id give you,is get the two masks in each hand, put each one on,and see which one fits better, gives more protection, and is comfy, as it's reallty more of a preference.
Like the guy earlier (I forgot your username, sorry) said earlier,A lfex might take one to the chin,and keep going, though it's never happened to me, I'd opt for the JT Proteus.

Ive been using my flex for a long time now and its my favorite. I have a proteus but i dont like it. It fits TOO close to my face (and i have a small head) and it just doesnt feel right. It was one of the older versions though. Also the little JT things on the front fell off well it was in my goggle bag in the sun. They look really cool on my cell phone now though
.
As for protection goes, the V-force is probly gonna give you the best overall protection. Probably the best overall performing mask accept i found one problem with it: its too big! I took alot of hits to the mask the day i tried one.
Thats the one edge the proteus will give you. You will rarely get a break on your mask.
I myself decided to stick with my ole flex because its "inbetween"
