Overwatch Shooting Safety Sunglasses, Forest Gray Anti-Fog Lens
R**D
Initial thoughts out of the package. Updated
Update 23 Sep 2019I purchased a second set. Overall I was very satisfied with the safety glasses. They look great and feel good on your face. My last pair I scratched the lenses while working under my truck. I put them on top of my head then smacked them into the transmission housing no scratches on my head though. I kept wearing them though until I was getting out of the back of a van and tripped face first into the back of a hard plastic seat. My eyes were saved my face a little marked up but worse the hinge on the glasses broke. Just a clumsy fall and they took the brunt of it. So, I just got around to replacing them and for the price, style, and color I wanted them same thing. The plastic is resilient, the hinges seem to be the weakest point.Quick rating: 1-10 (worst-best)Out of the box - overall: 7Quality: 6 update - 7Value: 8 update - 9Style: 7 update - 8Comfort: 8Tint: 6 update - 7Safety(opinion only): 7My star rating is based off of purchase experience, overall thoughts on value, features, and happiness with the product.Detailed review:I purchased these sunglasses to eventually replace a pair of cheap sunglasses I picked up over a year ago. I liked the style and color options available and the safety specs. The price was appealing as well. I have a habit of losing my expensive name brand sunglasses it seems and the cheap ones stick around somehow. These seemed to emulate what I am looking for in a higher quality pair without the hefty price tag.Upon opening the box they come packaged in a sturdy clear clamshell blister pack. It is easy to open no knife or scissors needed. The glasses were in perfect condition with no scratches. Included is a soft bag that will also work to clean your lenses.The frames are flexible but not a soft plastic so not sure they would survive you sitting on them by accident just yet, give me a week and I may be able to confirm or deny. All the edges seem rounded and without any places that might irritate or scratch your face. The arms swing open smoothly with a bit of pressure and stay in place. Would like to see subdued hinges but that's just a personal preference. Hinges are metal and should be durable. Lenses are sturdy in the frame. A rubberized coating on the nose and arms should help keep them in place on your face.On my face they feel comfortable and snug enough not to fall off during most activity. I will try them on a run and bike ride to see if those thoughts change. Lenses have good clarity and the amber tint should do well on all but the brightest days.So far I like the way they look and feel. I generally need to be closer to the medium/large size as small frames dont fit the width of my face well. I will try these out over the next week or two and conclude my thoughts on comfort and fit. I will also follow up if I feel there are issues with durability.So far these are a good purchase and I would recommend them to a friend. I will deffinitly be trying other models of sunglasses from them.

Awesome fit, extremely comfortable, and very much functional.
So, I have my own personal gun range in my back yard. I go through alot of brass, and it's usually sunny when I do. I've always disliked the traditional "Yellow" lens, shooting glasses. Because of that, I was looking for something more in the way of smoke colored lens, sunglasses. These tactical ballistic "tested" shooting glasses, went way beyond my expectations. Especially for the price... I recommend buying a few pair to have laying around. The rubber nose piece, and rubberized temple supports, make these shades solid, without too much pressure on the temples, and on top of the ears. I wear a 7 and a quarter fitted hat, and they fit like a glove. If you have a larger head, I would suggest purchasing the large size. With all of that being said, thank you!! I'm very happy with my choice overall, and "God bless America." 🇺🇸 (The way it used to be.) 🙏

Decent Quality
These are an affordable and stylish pair of safety glasses for the range. A little tight, a little cheap, but good value.I have been in the military over a decade, but I've never worn glasses that weren't issued to me. That changed recently when I bought a pair of Oakley Gascans, with polarized and prizm lenses. I had to return them because my brain didn't seem to process the prizm lenses very well, made me sick. So, I looked around at the cheapest alternatives to the Gascan and I think everyone should admit these look very similar.I have only had them a day so take this with a grain of salt. I think they look great. I especially like the OD green frame, it matches the OCP uniform well enough. The clarity of the lenses seem nice, the anti-fog is working. The paint looks a little cheap. The metal hinges on it seem decent, the plastic itself seems decent. The overall wear on my head is tight, so I tried bending them, doesn't help.They'll probably be uncomfortable for an entire day of training. The other option is the Venture Howitzer, which is supposedly wider by .3 inches, but doesn't have the same look.

low cost and very good...and exceptionally durable
I like these. They were a low cost with the safety ratings and style I wanted. Not sure about the anti-fog lens...condensation forms on anything - these are no exception. I would say the extra wide arm, helping to create a more protected area around your eyes, also prevents air movement and has at times encouraged fogging. I still like them though.They have spent many hot days baking on the dash of my truck in direct sun and have not deformed or had any of the soft rubberized material become become gummy. They have been very durable and would buy them again.**UPDATE -12/31/2020** After 2.5 years (3 summers), all of the original comments hold true - especially their materials durability after being on my truck dash. If they are not on my face, these stay on the dash of my Ram 2500. It get hot in this location during the summer, yet the materials used on these sunglasses have held up. No deformation or deterioration of the soft rubberized pieces.There are now a few lens scratches, so I will be buying another pair of these.

Excellent.
They look great, feel great and comfortable on my head. They don’t fog up at all even in extreme heat or while wearing a mask which was the main reason I purchased them. But they do scratch though, other than that not a big deal! They’re sunglasses at the end of the day u gotta be careful with them.

I'm very happy with these sunglasses, they work really well!
I ordered these for work because I have to be outside and where a mask most of the day, my other sunglasses fogged up a lot. These work Great!! I'd definitely buy these again if anything ever happened to the pair I have.
