cold weather helmets - whats warm and doesnt fog up?

 

The warm part will be easier to find than the won't fog up. Full face with a pinlock antifog inner shield on the normal shield may as close as it gets. Even then there will be times ....

 

my exo 400 is supposed to be treated with same anti-fog as hockey masks... idk

seems pretty decent, but yea it still kinda fogs up a bit once in a while... as far as warm, just wear a full face and close up the vents.

 

i just smear on some cat crap and wipe clean the visor and glasses...i use it for my goggles and such in the snow also...works great...i just wear a full face/neck mask before putting on my helmet...but, i'm in norcal, so it's enough to keep me warm in 30s morning temperature...

 

Any helmet is going to be warm. The trick to "no fog" is getting a "cold weather" face shield, also commonly sold as "snowmobile" face shields. They consist of 2 very thin panes with a thin air-space in-between them.

I swap my face shields when the weather changes. I use the same helmet for snowmobiling, except that I swap out the cheek pads (next larger size) to allow some room for a balaclava in my helmet. I have ridden in -15F many times with the winter shield, with almost NO fogging at all. The only time I get any fogging is when I'm riding (sleds) very aggressively and really exerting myself (i.e. huffing and puffing hard).

 

+1^. Close your vents. I use a Bell Star with the photochromic, anti-fog shield, as well as a breath box, and still get some condensation on the edges. But, riding in 20 degree temps or lower, some fog is gonna happen. Breathing through your nose will help a little. Crack your shield open to the first click every now and then to clear the fog.

 

WTF is that!!!!!! LOL

 

wear a neck tube + balaclava and you'll feel toasty warm. I just discovered this and love it.

 

That must be from those guys that run the other green machines...Arctic Cat.

 

cat crap works well for me...it's like waxing a car...i apply it on my glasses, shield, lense, etc....inside and out....let it sit...use a soft microfiber to gently buff it clear...don't apply much pressure when buffing it...(don't rub hard or you end up just taking it all off)....
