  • Patent number: 5687445
    Abstract: A device for the removal of wetness from eyewear while simultaneously applying an anti-fogging agent. A treated piece of soft, durable material such as chamois or other like material is cut to a usable size shape, although not necessarily the same size and shape. Attached to the material by stitching is a piping. Obviously other securing devices may be used. The piping has an elongated end that extends past the edge of the material enabling the user to create a loop by folding the elongated end of piping back to the point where it extends past material and securing the loop in place pressing together fastening two fastening devices in which one fastening device is outwardly extending hooked filaments that engage a pile surface on the other fastening device. Of course other devices for securing the loop may be substituted for the fastening devices described. The loop enables the user to conveniently carry the device by attaching it to one's clothing or equipment.
