Has anyone tried or used either of these in their helmet?
If so what do you think. Oxford Huff Foggy Mask |

Re: Helmet masks
I have the Foggy - very effective once you've got it fitted right for your face / helmet combo. Does what it say on the tin / packet. The only downsides are a) that it does shoot hot damp air up behind my glasses if I forget and breathe out too heavily and b) the nose clip thing digs in my head when I take the helmet off, so have to remember to pull it slightly forwards. So thats 2 downsides, and an upside everytime you breathe out and the visor doesn't fog - I make that a win!

Re: Helmet masks
I use a foggy every year, having to wear glasses I need my breath isolated from them, and it does that, good and simple solution to the problem.

Re: Helmet masks
I've just got a new helmet recently, and need to get some new velcro so I can swap the Foggy mask over.
I love it and feel naked without it !!!! |

Re: Helmet masks
Sorry not got chance to test it tonight. I use a buff and find it doesn't keep the breath off my glasses. Really hoping this is different

Re: Helmet masks
Got pinlock but the visor still mists a bit with the right (or wrong) temp/rain/humidity etc, especially round the non-pinlock edges which is not the end of the world but quite annoying.
However, have had respro foggy for last 2 months and it is mint once you get used to it and get it in the right place in helmet. I imagine taking it in and out a lot would chew up the lining around the chin bar though. Having used it I would not be without during colder weather. In combination with balaclava and fleece neck tube I have stayed warm and able to see. Lovely. |
