RE: Nikon monarchs
I believe fogproof pertains to internal fogging. Like if moisture gets inside the the tubes, it can evaporate and the water vapour can cause the internal surfaces of the glass to fog.
Bushnell has a coating called rainguard that they use on thier scopes ans binoculars. This makes water bead up on the glass and significantly reduces external fogging such as what you were talking about.
