What brand safety glasses do you use?

[George Stolz]

This is sort of a tangent from another thread. What safety glasses do you use?

My employer provides these to us. It blows me away that they're so inexpensive yet very comfortable, IMO.

I'd throw a picture up, but it ain't working out.

How about you? Likes/dislikes?

I buy my own, from Lenscrafters, when I get a new prescription.

I bought a pair of Smith and Wesson's a few years ago totally on a whim. They were so comfortable (for me), that I bought 20 pair in the event that they quit making them at some point in the future.

I think that safety glasses fit people differently. I was a Uvex man until I got the Smith and Wesson's. The Uvex one's are really nice too.

Personally I like these, BOAS:

My employer provides Starlite safety glasses, which I find fairly comfortable. They do tend to get scratched up after a while, but I don't know of any safety glasses that don't. The Starlite glasses are cheap, so I bought a box of them myself to keep around the house.

I have a pair of Boas and another pair made by 3M. I think the Boas were $5 and the 3M ones were $6. I prefer the 3M product.

I second the motion. Getting new safety glasses tomorrow with my first changed prescription in 25 years. Don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

I have prescription safety frames made by Titmus. The lenes are bi-focal, Transitions (gets dark in sunlight), and safety rated. I worry more about scratching the $600+ glasses than getting debris in my eye.

My glasses are so thick ...they have to be Z87's !

Seriously...I get my Z87's at Lensecrafters, but I honestly don't know if the LENSE is Z87 rated...the frame is stamped Z87.

Before I started wearing glasses everyday (translation ~ getting old)...I had a few pairs like these:

If your lenes are lenes are safety lenses, then they will have a barley visible + mark on the right lens. I just studied my glasses, and don't see the mark. Perhaps I got ripped off. I trusted my doctor. This is the second set of lenses I had installed in these frames and the mark is not present.

Now I'll really need the coke bottles to find the + sign on this pair!

Thanks for the tip.
