New Ballistic goggles/glasses

Well, I broke my Wiley-X's while I tripped walking up the stairs (I was holding them and they landed badly and broke) which makes me a moron, but at the same time I wasn't getting the performance I wanted from them and so now I'm just forced to get some new eyewear.

I am very interested in the Wiley-X glasses that don't seal to the face, but still offer good protection. I know a lot of fields won't let you play with them on, and honestly I've never actually worn a pair. I was wondering if anyone has worn them (or anything similar) and how possible/likely it'd actually be to get a BB in the eye? I would assume they'd have less fogging problems than goggles which is a big plus for me as it seems I'm always having problems with that. Has anyone ever heard a story about anyone taking a BB in the eye with them?

My second choice that I'm considering is the Bolle T800's. I hear that if you don't have right facial structure you won't like them and therefore to try them on, which I would do before I purchased. But what I'm more concerned about is fog, like I said, I seem to have fog problems all the time. Anyone with any first hand experience with them care to comment? I've searched online for reviews and haven't really been able to find what I was looking for.

I appreciate any help anyone can offer! Thanks in advance!
