Anyone know how the oakley jawbones are for fogging?

Quite fancy the red iridium polarized but don't know if going for one of vented lenses might be a better idea

I have Jawbones and I'd say they fog as much as the M Frames I previously had.

Bit of a bug bear for me at the moment!!!

With all the humid weather where I've been sweating madly and then today with the drizzly rain that soaks you my eyes have been filling with water.

I actually said today to my mate that perhaps I should get vented lenses to sort it out!!!....

And I have red iridium polarized's which are pure class in the sun but in my case not vented...

My ones with vented lenses still fog but not horrendously. Unfortunately I don't have any experience with non-vented lenses, or really other cycling glasses, to compare them to though.

get whatever color lenses you want, then use a file ( or dremel) and turn them into vented lenses in 2 min.
Tried on some old m frame lenses and its easy enough to file away vents without breaking the lenses.

I have Jawbones with prescription lenses and so am unable to get them vented.

Just dab a spot of fairy liquid on the inside of the lens and rub it in. Those trails will become far clearer. Works every time for me.

Fairy liquid is very abrasive, due to high salt content.

What?!

I've been using FL on my lenses for the last nine months and they're as clear today as what they were when I took them out the box.
