just wanna know is there a difference between ski & snowmobile goggles,and what brand is everybody using,i was using ski goggles and they fog and ice up alot, dose this happen to snowmobile goggles? any answer is appreciated.

I think some are actually designed for helmets, Mine actually have a helmet strap kit http://www.oakley.com/pd/2045 with a hinged wing piece at the strap/goggle connection to make the foam fit my face better in the helmet.
I wear Oakley A-Frames http://www.oakley.com/pd/3277 w/ the VR28 Polarized lenses for bright days and the High Intensity Amber for the low/flat light days.

I never have fogging or ice issues. If you take them or your helmet off, just be sure not to get any snow or water inside....then your toast. I use quick straps on mine, If I stop for any period of time, I just take them off and stuff inside my jacket or put them in a Sled Solutions mesh bag http://www.sledsolutions.com/store/images/VB-1-INSTALLED.jpg I have mounted under my hood and they come out toasty dry and ready to ride.

those are nice goggles,thanx for the links & pic ,mine have alot of foam they designed to go over glasses and they have good ventilation,when i go fast my forehead freezes.maybe its time to invest in good pair of goggles.

509 goggles not only have thicker foam but also wider so you don't freeze your forehead when riding, get the polarized lenses and you will love em.

Scott USA has a great selection of goggles, and I do believe they have some to fit over glasses.http://www.scottusa.com/us_en/category/8387/goggles

SCOTT 89's Tried and trued, easy to find spare lenses for if your traveling. Everyone carries them.

Agreed- Scott 89xi are good goggles. I have two sets but have never fogged so haven't needed the spares. They vent extremely well and have good cushioning.

I'm going to try the 509's - I need a set in yellow tint anyway and would like to see what difference the polarized lens makes. My Scott's have a rose tint which is fantastic in sunlight but now I want a light yellow tint for riding flat light. I thought I'd try the 509's for that. Then I can actually make an educated comparison. It seems like the 509's get mixed reviews.
