Given that you have a scope cover, keep the lenses covered in humid conditions and only open the covers shortly before shooting - the only option left revolves around some form of 'antifog' gel being applied to the lenses..... that and NOT exhaling deeply prior to shooting!
My scope remains sealed up until a shot is due - all glassing being done with the binos.
Those have a leather flap which covers the ocular lenses and avoids a build up of mist, rain or snow before use. It conveniently drops out of the way when the bino's are raised to your eyes. I also use Butler creek covers on the objective lenses. These provide protection and allow the glasses to be used as a rest for prone shooting - saves carrying a bipod! Finally, all lenses are coated in 'antifog.
ooh, you look happy with that Jap ! and quite right too
never had a problem with butler creeks on scopes however the eyepiece lenses on my Swavoskis are another matter even with supplied cover i seem to steam them up with body heat stalking in cold weather.
tucking your binos into your jacket when going to crawl is the worst and I dont know a way round that, even with those chest rig/straps they still catch on stuff.
