Mask qustion

Does anyone know if they make a mask that will fit glasses under it fairly easy... most of the ones I tried, you can't wear them all that well...

I have a vforce profiler and it seems to have room for glasses but I dont wear them so I dont know. Also I have read reviews on it saying they are good for people with glasses.

My proflex fits great over my glasses.
I'd get contacts, but the eye doctor guy said that if I did, it would screw up my vision more. Hopefully I can get some this fall.

Ya, back in the day, when I didn't have contacts, I used a V-force Shield. It was a cheaper mask, and it fit nice. I've heard that the Profiler fits well, also.

With glasses you will probably want to invest in a mask fan as well. It has been my experience that the thermal lense will indeed be fog free as advertised, but my glasses would be fogged like San Francisco bay. However, once I installed the vortex fan in my Proteous II, I have NEVER had a fogging problem ever again.

Blaugh! nice job on getting mod position. My experiences with profilers and glasses has been great, you'll need a fan though. I have what you might call a "small" face, but I know JT's masks work very well with glasses.

another option is to find a pair of inserts that stay in the mask. you basicly get these inserts and take them to any place that can make lenes and get them to make a pair for your prescription. then you can put the inserts in any mask. they cost about $20 plus your lenes.
i have herd alot of good things about the v-force mask working great with glasses as well!
