foggy mask or oxford huff?

I plan to get a pinlock kit for my lid once I get a replacement visor but in the mean time I need a solution for my visor misting up so was just wondering if anyone has tried either or both of these products? The oxford huff says it has some kind of unique chin curtain which I think is supposed to help with noise/wind reduction but I cant seem to find a picture of the inside of it so not sure if it's actually any better than the foggy mask,so anyone recommend either cos i'm getting tired of riding around with my visor open in this weather,thanks.

I bought the huff a few weeks back and from my experience its not as good as i hoped (ok fo ?12 though). The chin curtain does its job which is proberbly the best bit. It diverted the wind downwards instead of up into my helmet.

Mine never really sat right as every time i put on or remove the helmet the velcro would move along with the cheek pads.

Getting my pinlock next week so ill be glad to be rid of the huff Thumbs Up

Foggy for me too, plus it makes you look cool when you lift your tinted visor... Cool

Ive got a foggy mask as my visor is the wrong shape for a insert.

I found getting the helmet on and off a bit tricky (the plastic nose bit can get in the way) other than that, does what it says on the tin

It even works with my glasses which is good news.

I would also use your prefered anti-fog on the visor just to be doubly sure.

Dont bother with Pinlock, get a Fog City Insert.

It can take a bit of trial & error, but Foggy masks work very well when positioned correctly. I fluked it on one helmet, but when I got another it took a lot of trying to get it right.

yeah,the foggy does seem 100% dependant on positioning for it to work well,took me a while to get it into a comfortable position but seems to work well and is pretty comfy so worth the fiddling I feel,and seems to stay in place quite well.
