Fogtech does better than the included wipes, but only lasts so long. Once body heat started to rise, I got hardcore condensation all over the lenses.

These are cool googles and if you're generating very little body heat and aren't moving around much, they will last somewhat longer. If you're at all doing anything resembling airsoft play, that is, crouching, moving around stealthily, shooting, ducking, and going prone, these will start to condense pretty badly.

I like them as work desk goggles for when I'm using my AEGs, but they have yet to survive more than 30 minutes of actual play. I've had them out to two full-day games now and I've had to put on my JT Spectras after the first round out each time. Included wipes and Fogtech had the same ultimate results if different timing.

A teammate is also testing these goggles and found they fogged both in the first and second day of testing. He took longer to fog his up, but once his body heat was above a certain level, it was impossible to hold the fog back.

After trying ESS Advancers, Exoshields, and several other goggles, I'm beginning to think the only way to go is the double-pane JT Spectra style of goggles, no matter how awesome Fogtech's formula gets, condensation eventually becomes overwhelming.
