The Escort Safety Glasses work very well for me. I have a small to medium pair of framed prescription glasses and the fit is great. If you use bigger frames, I'm not sure the fit will be as good but another reviewer can answer that. I have been looking for awhile for a pair of these and decided to try the ones from Amazon. I'm glad I did. They wrap around nicely, don't cost very much and by far the most important, they protect my real glasses. A fine product and well made. Escort Safety Glasses Fits Over Most Prescription Eyewear Clear Lenses
I bought these thinking that I could use them to play squash or racquetball. They do fit over my regular glasses but unfortunately the frame blocks too much of my peripheral vision when I wear them. So I can not really use them.
For other purposes they do what they are supposed to do.
First of all, the product came very fast. The lenses are crystal clear, and they work really well over my glasses. They look a little funny, but most guys who are doing thing that require safety glasses don't really care what others think. For the price, you can't beat these. I have only used them indoor range shooting, so I can't tell you how well they can take a beating, but they are perfect for that use.
I struggle with how to review these glasses. First off, like any "safety glass" they look ugly. But I feel like I have to give extra minus points to these frames. They are the most ugly, god awful, GINORMOUS glasses I have ever seen.
I got these frames so I could go shooting or hunting with my glasses on. Alone in the woods is about the only place I can see me putting these on.
Functionally they work well. They fit my glasses nicely and I have an above average head. When you put them on there is hardly any play in my glasses. I have to shake my head really (really) hard to get them to wiggle. The frames are really wide and don't "wrap" so I am guessing they will not fit well with ear protection.
So I guess the glasses are good and work well (maybe not so much with ear muffs), but you will look like a total dweeb in public.
I bought the glasses for eye protection when shooting at an indoor range. These safety glasses work fine. Because they sit outside of my glasses, they don't fog up.
My only knock against them is they don't cover the entire lens of my glasses. My prescription glasses do not have small elliptical lenses. My glasses are large. However, I knew this was going to be the case when I bought them because of their size. Their being smaller than my lenses does not affect my shooting, so other than looking odd to someone else when they see me with them, there is no down side.
This is an inexpensive, easy solution for glasses wearers to get better eye protection in and beyond the shop. These are the nice cross between goggles (fog up too easily) and just wearing regular glasses (some chips and dust can get in the edges). I like 'em so much I bought a pair in smoke to wear over glasses in the yard, despite the jeers from neighbors and the love of my life that they look like eye surgery glasses. Since beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and I would like to keep mine, I think they look just fine.
I purchased these for protection over my prescription glasses while shooting at the indoor range.
These Escort glasses don't work for me as they don't fit my glasses well which makes them sit slightly off the face.
The gaps at the tops and sides this causes partially defeats the purpose of them to protect from ejected shell casings falling behind the glasses and striking the eye.
Also, due to them not fitting that well I am very aware of the heavy black framing in my peripheral vision.
The thick black framing also gives a 1950 era nerd look I don't like.
The Allen fitover shooting glasses I purchased are way better in fit, protection and looks and I'll be looking to give these Escorts away.
If you wear very small rimmed glasses that can fit under these Escorts so they fit close to the face and don't mind the nerdy look they will work fine for shooting protection, but if you have average to large framed glasses or are at all vain, pass these by. - Safety Glasses - Shooting Glasses'
