Now hat I have my new gun on order I want to get a new mask. I have a JT something that a local store said was as good as a v-force...it fogs up every few minutes, and I've spend an hour trying to get the lens back in. I was thinking of ether a Vantage or a Profiler and I was wondering what would be more glasses friendly. Thanks

A Vantage or Profiler are good choices. I need a new mask also. I have a JT, and am not happy with it at all but have been putting up with it ever since I started. It fogs all the time, its big on my head, so even though I have a red dot sight, it still interferes with my stock, and the lens is pretty bad. Its all scratched and just in bad shape. Let me know on what mask you pick, and how you like it. theres onhly one paintball store near me, and I think they only sell Invisions and Vantages.

i have to reccomend the v-force line of masks since they are the only onces i've ever had good luck with. I currently have a profiler and its a godsend. the most vision and comfort by far from anything else. its also not as large feeling. i don't feel like i have a mask on, i feel like i have ski googles on. thats how comfortable, light and did i say comfy?  you will experiance no fogging, replacement lenses are 20 bucks, and they pop out and back in in a matter of seconds for easy cleaning. IMHO, nothing beats the profiler. but if you can't afford the profiler, then stay in teh v-force famiy, all their masks will give you a tight fit, with room inside, with fast and easy lense removal and no fogging. I also play with a guy who owns the profiler and wear glasses underneath. he has absoutly no issues |

The Vantage does not use the same large, spherical lens that is common to the Profiler/Morph/Shield. The Profiler-style lens will fit the most generous of eyeglass frames. I've found that under humid conditions, my glasses tend to fog, while the V-Force lens does not.

I have used both JT and Vforce and I'd definitely recomend the Vforce. The lens change is easier and, to me, the fit feels better.

Yeah Ive gone through about 5 different masks....profiler is by far the best Ive used. I got an amber replacement lens and love it. The amber lens allows in more kinds of light, seems to make it easier to spot movement and such. Definitly grab a Profiler!

i would recommend the profiler i have one and im very happy with it... i can wear my sunglasses under it and it is still comfortable and doesnt fog... the mask has a small profile (either that or i have a big head ;D)

I too would recommend the Profiler. The thing is light, low profile, and amazingly comfortable. The lens offers great visibility, and changes out in a matter of seconds. And to top it all off, the mask just looks really sweet.  If you're looking for extra clearance for glasses, definitely go for the Profiler rather than the Vantage. The Vantage uses a different lens that doesn't curve as much and probably won't work as well with glasses. Most people have no problems wearing glasses under the Profiler/Morph/Shield lens. |

I have the V-Force profiler and I love it. I played in temps in the 30's to the 90's in all types of humidity and not once has my mask foged up. It's comfertable, light and the field of vision is HUGE!

OK. Having experience with the Vantag, Profiler and Invision; I recommend a Profiler hands down. I play scenario. I love the Invision feel and fit, but it fogs like crazy at night. The Vantage will not suit you if you are wearing glasses. Every man on our team that has the Profiler LOVES it. They do not fog and the lens changes takes 60 seconds-. My Invision? I struggled with it for 20 minutes at Kursk. Profiler all the way. You will not be sorry.

If you can wait, get the Vents Avatar. They were made glasses in mind
