*Most helmets have an optional breath deflector that you can purchase. This is especially true if a model is made in both motorcycle and snowmobile versions. A breath guard concentrates your exhaled air and sends it out the vents more efficiently than when you just breath directly on your shield | *Most helmets have an optional breath deflector that you can purchase.

*I live in a hot, humid area, and I used to ride with my shield cracked all the time. Since installing a breath guard I can ride with the shield in its correct position all the time (except for having it up at stoplights). This makes my eyes less susceptible to drying out and also cuts down on noise and bug entry. My experience is only with hot, humid conditions. For cold weather, some members have said they work well, and others have said they don't work at all. You may have to spend the $15 to find out for yourself. | *I live in a hot, humid area, and I used to ride with my shield cracked all the time.
