From the article: Fight Foggy Glasses
Having your glasses get foggy is just one of the pleasures (ahem) of cold weather riding. But some experienced cyclists have at least some partially effective solutions to this problem. Share your technique with others. Share Your Technique.

Goggles work great

I asked Tifosi what they recommended for anti-fog coating, I didn't want to ruin the existing Fototec coating for auto-darkening. The reply from Tifosi was don't use anything on any of our glasses, Fototec or not. So I went with the snowboard goggles, work great. They have one problem with a regular helmet that the strap comes across the back of the helmet in a place that it wants to slide down. The goggles work great when paired with a snowboard helmet you'll get the benefit of better face coverage and more insulation, plus the helmets have a snap in the back to lock the strap in place. I've never had a problem with applying catcrap to goggles, and every shop & snowboarder I've asked recommends it.
