Goggles Gap

Hello,

Simple question, has anybody done any modifications or additions to their goggles because of nose bridge gap? I have revision desert locust fan goggles and they leave a small gap atop my nose bridge. I know I can go ahead and buy the 'asian' locusts goggles. However, without a fan there is just no way for me & the $200+ to drop on the asian locust fans is not much of an option right now.

So, I have been thinking of maybe using some weather stripping type of foam and using that, plus also modifying the lower mesh mask to fit better around the nose area. If any of you have done anything like this, please share your tips.

Thank you.

Trim the face mask under the eyes a bit with tin snips and mask should seat better up into the goggles. A heat gun is great for getting the material off around the perimeter of the mask to give you access to the mesh.

Sell the normal ones and get the asian fit ones... So much better an option than trying to mod a non asian fit model. I tried that... didn't work so well and had to buy an asian fit one plus was out the cost of the normal ones.

I don't have a tiny face... in fact most normal sunglasses are too tight and pinch my head, I usually have to get the ones with springs on the arms. The asian fit desert locust fan work perfect for me. With fog tech and the fan on I never fog.
