eye protection

I use these... I have the SG-1 series. You can sometimes find them for around $50 or so.. They do fog up a bit in cold weather from some reports but I have not had too much of a problem with them. Many people say there is NO fog in the warmer weather. They have multiple inserts to change the color of the lenses and they will stop a .22 cal bullet no prob. They are comfortable although they just come to your eyebrow and so some people do not like that. There is no vision distortion as with cheap glasses. Plus, you can get them in perscription, although I don't because I wear contacts.

I also have a set of these... They are good and supposed to be shatter proof. They are cheap and comfortable but they are also slender like the Wiley X's, so some people do not like that. The band on them is also kind of thick so some people complain that they ride on the ears weird. I do not have a problem with that, maybe because I have a big head? I have not noticed much distortion out of them. My "airsoft" goggles that I first bought which came with a full face mask were MUCH worse and cost about $30. I have not had a problem in cold weather using them, we will see if they fog at all in warm weather when I get them out to the field in the summer.

Hope that helps!

No kidding. Ordering from them is tricky. I just got a pair of Wiley X SG-1 lenses from them. They normally don't sell the lenses separate (you have to let them install them) but it's different with the SG-1's because the lenses are in their own little frames. Anyway, awesome stuff.

I love my Wiley-X lenses... Just make sure you clean them to prevent fog up. I have had 5 pairs of lenses for mine and have found that if you clean them well the first time, you will have NO problems with them later!
