When I first ordered these I mistaenly bought the flame lense model because it was advertised as polarized. However Optics planet paid for the return so I got the polarized model eventually. These sunglasses are uniquie in that they are the only polarized ballistic sunglasses rated to the military standard for spectacles that are not meant for just shooting and warfare.(a.k.a. they have seperate lenses and are not stupid looking) I would halve bought a Made in USA pair but there is not made in usa pair of sunglasses that is both polarized and meets the military reqirement for specticles. These are made in Taiwan, with final assembly done at the revision facility in the US. The fit and finnish is exelent, the sunglasses fit colse to your face(good protection) and are still very comfortable to wear. The lenses look a bit big but that helps improve your peripheral while wearing these. Overall I`m satisfied with these, but I really wish revision would make them in the USA like they do ...

Eyepro fits to the head well, stays put. The flame-mirror lenses work well in light-to-dark situations, as when moving through wooded areas with broken canopy on a sunny day.

These sunglasses are very comfortable, even when worn for long periods of time. They do not make things overly dark and are very clear. They do what they are intended to do. I took some of my friend's spent cases to the sunglasses without any problems. No scratches or marks. The rubber nose pads kept the sunglasses in place even while I was dripping with sweat.

This is the third pair of Hellflies that I've owned. They are perfect for protective services, providing low-key balistic protection while still looking professional.
