Work very well on someone who ALWAYS fogs up goggles
I heat up when I play racquetball. My face gets very red(hot) and sweats quite a bit. Many years back I ended up getting eye wear that was an open plastic frame without a lens after trying many goggles that would fog up. Fast forward 20 years and I pick up the game again, still using my open framed eye protection. I'm playing a lot now and noticed that the thick frames were blocking vision on certain shots. Great, back to looking at regular lense goggles. I researched quite a bit and settled on these figuring that if they don't work I'll give them to my son. I've since played twice and an very happy to report that I have not seen any fogging at all. I was actually surprised by this. Comfortable, great clarity and fog free. I am very happy with these goggles. If you are like me and have been on the fence about spending money on goggles that claim to be fog free--give these a try.UPDATE 10/19: I now have 3 of these goggles with stress fractures right down the center of the lens. I bought my last pair from a local pro sponsored by Head and he is returning them for warranty. I used the previous generation of this goggle, the orange ones, and never had a stress fracture. I just replaced them when the sweat band wore out. Additionally, the left head band connection to the frame is lose and when I go to put them on my head that connection frequently breaks free. I crazy-glued the last set to have it stay. I am not hard on these googles but it seems to me that something else has changed along with the change to green color. No issue with several sets of orange ones over 1.5 years, then 3 fractures in 3 months with the green. HEAD: Please investigate! One pair is being returned through your local sponsoree but I have another pair that I can send in for evaluation as well.Update 12/19/17: I ended up posting on Head's facebook page and they immediately followed up with two replacement pairs. They also had me send my two broken pairs to one of their facilities to have their engineers look at them. I have 10 hours on the first new pair and there are no cracks and the left side of the headband stays in place without having to use glue. I'm happy again with the product as well as the outstanding customer support from the Head team.UPDATE: On my second pair of these goggles and will buy more. The foam at the top of the frame falls apart after many hours of use so some sweat gets into my eyes. I can probably add my own foam...just thought of that :) The lenses hold up well after getting a few glancing blows and they did their job without any bruising to my face or the bridge of my nose.

Minimum to No Fogging
Update: I'm updating my original review below. I'm changing it from five to four stars. These goggle are great for resisting fog. Unfortunately, the plastic developed a crack at the nose after normal use of playing one or twice each week for about three months. I applied a bead of super glue to seal the crack, which helped them last a little longer. However, after about five months, I had to replace them.Original Review:I had previously bought less expensive goggles from the same manufacturer. I figured that the plastic material must be the same, so why pay extra for fancy designs or other frills. Well, the less expensive goggles fogged like crazy. I think it had to do with their design. They didn't allow for airflow, so they fogged up quickly.I bought these goggles based on a recommendation from a friend. To my pleasant surprise, these goggle don't fog like my first pair did. Fogging on these goggles is minimal. Maybe I get a little bit of mist, but it doesn't obscure my vision at all. I think the difference is that these goggles allow much better air flow between the plastic and your face, whereas the other goggle rested pretty tightly against my skin. Also, I wipe my goggles after every game with a clean cloth (not with my shirt or gym towel), and I think that helps avoid fogging.I'd say that the extra cost was definitely worth it for me. I'm very pleased with these goggles.

Best Goggles I have owned
I have been playing racquetball for a long time and I play at a high level.These are by far the best goggles I have ownLove that do not fog, they also adjustTried them for the first time on Thursday and they worked great. Game changer for me. I sweat allot and my old pair would fog up and it affected my game.I remember playing in a tournament and because I could not see and it cost me a game. These goggles were perfect, love themRecommend highly

Finally: Well made and NO fogging!
I've been looking for safety goggles for Pickleball indoors. I've tried several different brands and ended up returning them because they either had glare or fogged within 10 minutes of play - thank you Amazon for your easy return and credit policy. These glasses have some style - not clunky looking. The safety ANSI cert gives me some measure of confidence if a ball lands in my face. No glare in the lights. You can adjust the fit and fits securely -comfortably. And it doesn't fog after 2 hours of play! Nice touch the pouch. Great price-value.

Compare to E Force Crystal Wrap, highly recommend this
I own both of these and by personal choice, I like the Power Zone goggles a lot better since both are similar priced. Some positives about these goggles over the E Force ones are...- The Power Zone seems to be built a little more sturdy and also much more comfortable on my head than the E Forces. The Power Zones also have a small strip of foam across the top of the goggle to help keep a lot of sweat out of the eyes to, for me that's a huge key. I also prefer the strap setup of the Power Zone as well where the Power Force strap is integrated into the ear pieces, the E Force pair rubber wraps around the pieces. Additionally, I like the neoprene strap of the E Force but that advantage is offset by the limited range of movement of the velcro secured strap. The Power Zones utilize a slip system so you have a lot more adjustment of the strap. Both pair have adjustable ear pieces to customize to your head shape.- One advantage for the E Force is for anybody who's very particular about the fit of your goggles, the E Force comes with a couple different nose pieces. For me, not really a deal breaker as the Power Zones are much more comfortable on my head.I've used both and like both pair, but for me the Power Zones are a much better goggle for similarly priced products. Highly Recommended!!!
