Goggle for running and scope

[candymannetje]

Last month I joined a run&gun competition.
I used the revision desert locust.
Great for running but terrible on the scope.
Very difficult to get a good shot because the goggle is to thick.
But the glasses may fall when running and stuff.
Any suggestions?

I wear ESS glasses when I run. They come with an elastic strap that snaps on/off easily but works great for retention. Doesn't need to be tight necessarily, just keeps them from going flying.

A good fitting pair of glasses are unlikely to come off in my experience.

Thanks, I'll try those glasses.

I should have added i have 2 versions. "Standard" and "suppressor". The suppressor is thin arms so go under ear muffs. It comes with the elastic strap which snaps on/off because if you aren't wearing muffs those glasses fall off very easily.

This is the kit I have:

That same strap works with their standard frame.

Do they get foggy?

Not initially, but after some hard use the anti-fog coating on the inside can wear off. Mine did after a few years, but I just got replacement lenses which are relatively inexpensive.

I usually run with Oakley or Gatorz, but I stow them on my hat until I get close to the stage.

I have been using RayBan Meta tinted and recently bought a set of clears to record my 2 gun stages and I think I’m going to run my R&G this Saturday with the clear raybans. Not good for distance, but they have decent video/sound and it makes evaluating my mistakes very easy, as there is little no guess work.

I sweat bad in these runs, even the night runs in March, and I have yet to find a coating I can apply that will keep my glasses and my ocular from fogging just off body heat. If you guys have found the magic ticket, please share. So far, cat crap hasn’t cut it.

I used scope dope in thr past. Worked well.

Either run fresh lenses or apply anti-fog goop if needed.

Do they get foggy?

not if you use the gasket for the crossbow suppressors: https://esseyepro.com/en_ca/crossbow-suppressor-gasket

if you need prescription eyepro the wileyX are better

Any experience with the revision shadowstrike?

Have you looked at goggle-lens sized glasses for cycling? I've used goggles forever alpine skiing, but always used sunglasses for cycling. I got some goggle-lens glasses this year and the FOV difference is amazing, and they don't have fogging issues. But honestly I'm not a sweat/steam factory. The guy who designed this one is a sweat/steam guy who does skiing and MTB and was tired of other options being fog magnets. Lab Austere.
