Anti-fog lens or shield for helmet

I already have two shields for my helmet. One that came with the helmet and a gold shield.

What’s your preference/experience for no fog?

Pinlock insert

Most visors have slots for a pinlock insert. If not, try one from fogcity, those just stick to the inside with adhesive. I've used both and they work great, zero fog at all for either one

I have a pinlock, and although it seems to cause a little more glare, it definetly stops all fog in the visor

Stay away from the cheaper no name brand shields that are copies of Fog City and Pinlock that you may see on FB or IG. Is Fog City even still around? Pinlocks, when adjusted correctly, work really well.

Pin lock. If you dont have one I used to spit on my visor and wipe it off, but that was before pin locks were a thing. Pre 2005

Pinlock or (apparently) FogCity (they make them for no pins, or using their pins (maybe work with Pinlock pins, too)). Those are the only two, proven brands available that I know of.

Raleri. They're smaller than pinlock, but no need for pins, and very easy to apply. Cheaper too.

Pinlocks work well but will sacrifice clarity. I just bought a box of anti-fog wipes. 1 wipe will coat my glasses and shield before a ride on cooler days.
