Legacy Reviewer's Review of Smith Elite Aegis Echo Safety Glasses
These are $$$ safety glasses, for those who wear over-the-ear (OTE) hearing protection for long periods. There just isn't anything else on the market that is as comfortable.
The earpieces are flexible metal, appear to be spring steel because they can't be bent to loosen/tighten fit (they bend but just return to original shape). Worn under OTE muffs, the earpieces are magic...they just disappear and are nearly like "no glasses"...wonderful. The wrap-around style sits close to the face and keeps blown and kicked up stuff out of your eyes.
The slight downside? The nosepiece is one-piece "sport" style and doesn't adjust. While very comfortable, the glasses sit just a tiny bit too close to my face (eyelashes touch lens) and can't be adjusted to sit more forward on my very thin nose bridge. For others (men) who tried them on, this wasn't a problem), and it's a tiny annoyance for me, far outweighed by the positives.
Strongly recommended...in fact everyone who has tried them on has bought their own.
OpticsPlanet was great, shipping was shockingly fast and communication on the order was perfect. Thank you!
Pros: Comfortable, flexible interchangeable lenses, strong storage case
Cons: Non-adjustable nosepiece, a little loose without earmuffs
