I had a pair of swaros last year (8x30 SLC). I returned them because i had the same problem. They kept fogging up!! I hunt whitetails in kansas and sheep in the western states and i had nothing but trouble. Sent in for a new pair and the same thing happened. Decided to return and bought a pair of Leica 8x32 ultravid and they are great! Clarity is better too!

Normally it's very cool in the morning where we hunt, I'm wearing a
light jacket, the bino's are usually resting just inside my jacket for
quick access and not hanging out to possibly get caught on something
while stalking. Last weekend, I did one of my typical treks hiking a
couple of miles in the early morning down a hill, across a small creek,
up another hill, though a wooded meadow, then up a small but very steep
knoll. From there, I'll sit and scope a large area for deer. By the
time I plop my butt down and pull out my binos I've worked up a little
sweat and in the past I've found that my Leupold Olympics would usually
fog up after I pulled them out. This is probably from being kept in my jacket,
my sweating and then the cool air. Last weekend doing the same walk
with my EL's, no fogging, amazing clarity and color.
