Shaun Haynes Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Looking to swap out my eyewear from my cheap nasty nurpol to something bit more comfortable and with interchangeable lenses as its just easier Seen the revision sawflys and ess one is there any difference. Open suggestions of any others do much prefer a shooting/warp around style. I already own mesh onea for cqb but i hate them cant a see my red properly and full seal isnt the most comfy thing but they don't fog. So win some lose some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsh Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I use the Sawfly glasses, and after using all sorts of different eyepro, they are easily best i've used by far. The lenses are a doddle to change too. For CQB i wear a bump helmet with Balaclava, and i've never had them fog up on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkman Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I just picked up a 'used' pair of Sawfly's for £25 inc P&P and they are pristine, and all 3 lenses are perfect. http://www.britishmilitarysurplus.co.uk/shop/sale-items/revision-sawfly-impact-sun-g-1123881.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofsammo Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 For outdoor games I use ESS ice. They're ace. Have taken hits without a scratch. Comfy, never fog up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duff Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Bolle SIlium+ are £12.95 at Patrolbase, Own both clear and smoked. Love them, comfy, lightweight, strong as fuck and they don't fog up like goggles, you get a bit of condensation on the inside of the lense, well I do cos I sweat like a horse.

Wo1f Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Based one what’s been said I’ve just ordered some ess ice. What wipes/ anti fog do you recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Prisce Posted May 21, 2018 Supporters Share Posted May 21, 2018 I am yet to try NikWax but I have been told it’s bloody good. I personally use Rainex Anti Fog wipes from Halfords, I have trade discount so I get them dirt cheap, they have yet to fail on me, and I’m a sweaty pig.

Duff Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Nikwax is a waterproofing agent and it's shit, used it on my motorcycle jackets (both leather and textile) and it did fuck all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters jcheeseright Posted May 21, 2018 Supporters Share Posted May 21, 2018 ESS glasses should come with an ESS branded anti-fog cloth. Don’t use any kind of detergent like toothpaste on them, it’ll break down the anti fog coating on the lenses very quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun Haynes Posted May 28, 2018 Author Share Posted May 28, 2018 Uded mine for tgd 1st time. Lenses are great so clear Only issues i had was the fact hat they keepp sliding down my nose as i think there bit large for me head. Mine sisnt come with the head strap would getting the head strap stop this happening or is it just a heqd strap to keep the round your neck?

Wo1f Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Very happy with mine too. I tried it on sat without a lower mask as I was playing woodland and they remained crystal clear all day. Mine came with a strap. One thing I will say is be careful changing the nose piece when changing lenses. I cracked mine pulling it off. Still works fine, but I found that a little frail.

Theres a knack to chnaging the lenses. Did you use the head strap? Was comfy did tye glasses move on your head at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wo1f Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Yeah the head strap was on when I got it and I didn’t bother taking it off. Wasn’t super tight like those bolle glasses, but I didn’t notice any movement. Coverage is great. You’d have to be shot from behind at a very weird angle for anything to get behind the lense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
