Not the best. by Anonymous from Pittsburgh, PA
Pros: None Cons: Over prices & ineffective Review: Severely overpriced item. As stated in another review, they are just safety goggles that are etched or painted. They do not do a good job of blocking out everything. I get no sensation of instrument flying. I often find myself putting my head against the glare shield, like a grandmother driving down the road, just to block out the outside view. Until a better product comes along, I would rather deal with the hassle of wearing "the hood." It will give you 10 fold better sensation of "real instrument" conditions...over the Foggles. Spend your money on something else.

disappointed by Dan S from Havana IL USA
Pros: Comfortable. Fit over glasses. Cons: Overpriced for product.. Sun glare issue. Review: These are basically an inexpensive safety goggle that has been etched except for the "instrument area". When flying into the sun they make a blinding glare. To resolve this problem I masked the view area and spray painted the fogged area. This resolved the problem, but I would have been better served to just paint a pair of safety glasses.

Don't fit over glasses or sunglasses. Gave foggles to IFR CFII. by Marc from Livermore CA USA
Pros: Limits vision adequately. Cons: Do not fit over regular glass or sunglasses. Review: Reviews were mixed on whether or not the Foggles would fit over regular glasses or sunglasses. In my case, they did not. I gave them to a CFII friend for his students. I made my own "Foggles" using simple plastic saftey goggles from my local hardware store, taping over the area I wanted to remain clear, then spray painting the rest. The safety goggles fit easily over my glasses and sunglasses, do not interfere with my David Clark headset, and are easy to put on and take off.

Can't hear with foggles on by George from Slidell LA USA
Pros: Good material Cons: Breaks headphone seal & noises up comms too much Review: Not OK for those who wear glasses. In my case they fit over the glasses ok, but held my headphone muffs out and let in so much noise; I couldn't hear. Suggest "clip on" foggles be made for glasses wearers.

Good product but I modified them anyway by MJ from Livermore CA USA
Pros: Well made and they work good. Cons: See review. Review: As most folks know Foggles are a good product, nonetheless they have two bad design flaws. 1) They are not headset friendly and the ends will dig into your head behind your ears. 2) Yellow lenses are horrible to look through and when the sun hits the fogged out portion of the clear lenses it defusses the light and darn near blinds you. I don't have the answer to number 1, but created a great fix for number 2. I taped off every area of the glasses that was not fogged out and painted the rest flat black. 100% better, no more glare.

Read This FIRST!! by Victor A. Santiago from San Juan, PR
Pros: Greater Restricted Viewing Than Others Cons: Cheap Frosted Finish Review: Waaaay too bulky. Really Cheap Frosted Finish, spray painted without even having the viewing area aligned. Worked really good after I modified them with 3M Electrical Tape.

Don't buy these foggles. by Dissatisfied from Spartanburg SC USA
Pros: They are lightweight. Cons: Don't serve their one intended purpose Review: Foggles only serve one purpose in life - to keep you from seeing outside. I am constantly turning my head in weird positions to keep from "cheating" and catching the horizon. They are not adjustable and don't fit well under your headphones.

Beats the hood by Thomas from Cibolo TX USA
Pros: light weight, small Cons: breaks headset seal when used with glasses Review: A substantial substitute to using the hood. If you wear glasses, they can be slightly uncomfortable, but the foggles allow airflow across your face, where the hood restricts not only visibility, but airflow as well. If you have issues getting air sick under the hood, this is the cure.

There may be a better way... by Randy from Grayson GA USA
Pros: Nice price. Stayed in place. Cons: Clear pair expldes light when flying into the sun. Not very comfortable/distracting with my Serengetti aviator sunglasses. Review: They do the job nicely. Were everything they were advertised to be. There may be a better product out there for the money but I don't know what it is. I will probably take dark tape and cover the frosted areas because when flying into the sun I was unable to see the panel. The frosting explodes the sunlight and washes everything out in front of you. My sunglasses underneath were cumbersome and were distracting from all the important things I was trying to learn and do.

They get the job done by A Customer from NJ USA
Pros: They allow you to see the insturments and block as much as the outside as can be expected. Cons: It makes it a little louder because they break the seal of the headset, but it is no worse than sunglasses Review: They are great at limiting your view. In the Cherokee 140 I have been flying you can see a sliver of the window. They will reduce the noise cancellation of your over-ear headset since it will break the seal, but it is the same as wearing sunglasses. It is about everything you can expect from foggles.
