Ive never got on with cycling in glasses. But now we have some I thought Id try again!

So how do I stop them steaming up, do people use anti fog or anything much the same as dive masks?

Any advice much appreciated

THANKS

Nikwax Visor Proof- seems expensive when you buy it but a bottle lasts... well, a decade for me so far and it's still half full. Brilliant stuff, it works and it lasts.

Other options are available, you hear about people using candle wax, washing up liquid... Tried the washing up liquid, it was sorta kinda alright.

If you've never got on with them why did you get another pair?

Bob Heath Visor anti mist spray.
Used it for years as a motorcyclist and now us it all the time for MTB works a treat.

When I swim a bit of spit on my goggles works.
Try that.

You need a pair that don't sit too close to the face, a metal frame with nose pads on arms may be better.

I've been using Muc-Off Anti-Fog Treatment spray on my glasses under skiing goggles and it's been great. On the days I forgot to spray it on my glasses have fogged up so it does seem to work. I haven't tried it on riding glasses yet though.

Fogtech works great, most other stuff is rubbish http://www.visorvision.co.uk/shop/FogTech-Bottle-36?osCsid=pqvd1hleu128t81klogob4s3l5#.Ux8dWvl_tjE

I have serious problems with this, lots of uplift days have been marred with slamming the brakes on at times of great blindness! I have ordered some of the fog tech wipes and will see how they go. Would love to keep glasses clear underneath goggles for downhill days.

I don't use anything. When riding the glasses are clear, fog free. But when I stop the fog up almost instantly. Starting of again un fogs them.
I use some cheap wrap around with vents in the lenses.

Muc Off anti fog is pretty good, just need to reapply every few rides.

Oakley nanoclear fluid works very well.
