    Does anyone know if vented glasses (like those pictured below), work to prevent fog? This a.m., I stopped for a traffic light, and my glasses (some sort of Oakley's I pilfered from my DH) totally fogged up and didn't clear until I started rolling again. My Briko's do the same thing.
    I was wondering if vented glasses would prevent fogging....
    (hmm...picture didn't seem to load...let me try something else - apologies if 2 show up)

    I posted earlier, but didn't know which Oakleys we have. They are the "M" Frame, according to DH. There are a few different sets of lenses to choose from. I think it's the shape that is different. I've never noticed any issues whatsoever with them, including wind issues, which we have a LOT of around here.

    My two eldest sons both have vented sunglasses - they both find them very good in conditions where other glasses might fog.

    The brand they have is "ProRace"

    I recently bought a pair of Performance Bike sunglasses...the style is called Athena. They were $29 and came with three sets of interchangeable lenses. So far, I'm very happy with them. They seem a little flimsy but I wasn't expecting too much at that price. They are very lightweight and comfy though.

    I wear contacts and my eyes were watering and tearing up like crazy with my old sunglasses. I had tears pouring down my face within 5 miles! But today, with these new sunglasses, I hit a new personal speed record (41.5 mph) and I had no teary eyes whatsoever!

    I ended up finding a pair of the Tifosi Alpes at a LBS in another town that I had to drive through anyway to get somewhere, tried them on and they actually fit! I haven't had a chance to wear them on the bike yet, but did wear them this weekend while hanging out at my church's summer camp and they were comfortable and stayed put nicely, so hopefully the same will be true while riding, running etc.
