For airsofting I have used safety glasses (don't recommend ever doing), ESS Striker goggles, JT Delta 2, various other goggles, etc. And I will say none of them worked this good. The safety glasses were not safe, the ESS goggles still allowed a BB to enter either through the foam or the side. Theres a rubber flap there, as it was not designed for airsoft, despite a lot of us prefer to use them for this. JT Delta 2, provided lack of face protection on the sides, and bad field of view 180 vs 260 which these have.
Pro's
NO FOG
Excellent field of view
Comfy
Well ventilated
Lower profile mask, allowing use of sights more often than other masks. Or at the very least allowing us to not have to raise our optics quite as high to use.
Cons
Bottom face/top helmet portion are not removable. So your limited to with or without visor for customization. Unlike my JT Delta 2, and other masks which your able to remove portions of the mask to be left with just the goggles if you wanted to.
*EDITED IN*
Had this for awhile now and used it on a lot of outdoor events. Will say that the anti fogging capabilities of the thermal lens is superb. At most I have got a few small patches of fog here and there in extreme conditions. But those clear up in a few seconds if I control my breathing, since it only happens only when I am breathing heavily when I stop. Which might happen to me a couple times in the course of playing all day. Though the other option to clear up the fog is to just move around a little bit as that will provide more than adequate airflow to clear it up as well. I have gotten a fan for this mask free from a friend, which remains largely unused. It's only real use is to turn it on once in awhile while were setting up for the next match to remind my friends I don't fog, EVER.
Full face/head protection is also a great thing about this, it just gets a bit difficult to know if you get shot on the top of your head you can't feel it. It is also quite slim in comparison to other full face masks and somewhat flexible. The top sunshade is great in my opinion, I have played on some very bright sunny days and never once had the sun in my eyes, or felt the need for a tinted lens. The pictures may decieve you as it looks too small to be of use but it isn't, as your eyes are a bit farther back because of the goggles.
Update: March 2015
4 years have gone by and the mask still lives and has seen untold number of airsoft games and events. And has been there for most of my airsoft career which has eventually died down to nothing. It is by far one the best purchase concerning airsoft equipment I have made. I still stand by all the praise I gave it before, it deserved it and more.
But let me add in another thing about this concerning airsoft, it is annoying difficult to tell the difference between being shot in the head and a BB ricochet off a wall, they are both pings but only slight difference between the two. It's actually not that big of a deal really considering how much most fields discourage head shots anyway from my experience. I have never actually had that be an issue at a game so I wouldn't be too concerned about it. Worst I had was a ref spot check me by shooting me when I wasn't looking to make sure I was calling my hits, then he walked over and said I wasn't out as he was just checking as he saw a ricochet off the back of my head earlier and I didn't call it. Told him I couldn't feel a hit there and pulled down the hood of my sweater and revealed my helmet and that was it.
Being an asian male with a cap size of 7-1/8" I dont particularly have a large head but the mask with the head guard just fits me. I thought I would have some space under the head guard but it is right up against it. Perhaps this is more for a kids head?
Pros:
Comfortable
Pretty well ventilated
No fogging issues (70-80 degree weather)
Wide field of view
No glare issues
Cons:
Tight fit
A little difficult to clean the lens
If you have a smaller head, I think this mask is for you without hesitation.
