JORESTECH Safety Glasses, ANSI Z87+ Compliant, Impact-Resistant Polycarbonate Lenses, UV Protection, Anti-Scratch Coating, 12-Pack

I'd have preferred larger lenses and hence larger side shields, but as far as safety standards go, these are the best rated one can get. My last set was a pair of laboratory safety glasses from my undergrad days as a college chemistry major, 32 years ago. Those got dirty, and I ran them through the dishwasher. Unheated dry cycle, top shelf and the old ones still partly melted. They came out very clean, but ruined. I figure this new 12-pack will last me quite a long time. I'm near-sighted, and when my mother and I trim trees in her neighborhood, I prefer these when dealing with whippy branches instead of corrective lenses. I also have a machine shop in my basement, so a set of these went at every tool station. They ones I received are not very blurry, at least not enough to be any sort of nuisance. Since nobody makes replacement eyeballs, these are a great deal for the price. The 12-pack allows one set for my garage, one for the metal-cutting bandsaw, one for my mill-drill-lathe, one for my mother's garage, a few giveaways to friends, and a jar of extras in reserve. This means I'll always have a set ready to hand. I have also taken to wearing my leather arc-welding jacket when machining parts, after an accident which had a broken-off drill bit bounce off my chest very hard. No blood was drawn, but I saw where this could potentially lead. Note: do not run safety glasses through your dishwasher. At least the old set had the advantage of having lasted 32 years. In addition to more regular shop activities, plus Nerf wars and paintball fights mentioned in the comments section, these would likely be pretty good for raquetball. Nobody really wants a ball bouncing off a wall at high speed in their eye. At about a dollar a pair, these are too inexpensive not to use. The individual - and reusable - plastic wrappings will also help keep them from becoming dusty during periods of disuse. Of course one could always use Ziploc freezer bags for an even more complete covering. I have a big head, and these fit me well anyway. The limbs expand slightly, and still reach my ears.

Good buy

My first set of inexpensive safety glasses were a dozen (clear) from Bison Life. I liked them so well I bought a dozen more in amber to use on the shooting range. I loved the clear lens glasses, but the problem I had was after taking them off and lying them down, they were so clear I couldn't find them (jeez!). I wanted safety glasses that had some color to them so I could see where I left them. These glasses fit the bill. The blue eyepieces make them easy to spot. And the lenses are clear and non-distorting. And, and, they are inexpensive enough that if you get them scratched, or sand-blasted, you can toss them, and grab a new clear pair. I'll continue to use the Bison Life around my home (where I know where I left them), but on another job site, I'll use these. One note: these Jorestech earpieces are 1/2" wider in the back than my clear Bison Life, so they don't fit as tight on my head. I'm a 7-1/8 long-oval. So that's not a problem. Both work for me, and neither one slips down or falls off, even if I look down and shake my head around. I just bring that up in case someone has a large head and finds some safety glasses too tight, they might give these a try.

Nice glasses. Light weight and fit nicely around eyes. However, the tight fit result is easy fogging if warning when working which is the primary purpose for safety glasses.

Great sunglasses for a very reasonable price. My first experience with these sunglasses was at my dentist’s office. He used these sunglasses to protect patients’ eyes during procedures. My wife and I have used them as sunglasses ever since. If I lose a pair, which I have a few times, so what at this cost.

For the price of one in the store I get a dozen. They work great .

I do a lot of outdoor work on my property, sawing, gardening, etc. I felt the price of these protective eye wear glasses was very reasonable so I decided to try them. I think they are well made, not flimsy or cheap looking. I like the way they wrap around the eyes, giving full coverage. I have not tried them with glasses so I don't know how well that would work. I do wear them for mowing the yards and they work well with protective ear muffs/phones. I have had protective glasses before that are very uncomfortable to wear under ear phones. These let me protect my eyes and ears when working with equipment that is noisy. I am a senior citizen, female, so am not used to wearing industrial equipment all day, but these work well for hours at a time.

Exactly what I ordered.
