They are a lot nicer than the glasses I have been wearing, more comfortable too. It's gonna take a little while to get used to changing the lenses from dark to light. It took me about 30 minutes to do it the first time. Great buy and I will try them out tonight and report back then. Anyone who doesn't like the ones they got for this deal let me know and maybe I'll take em off your hands. Thanks to OFG for finding this deal...(OFG OldFenderGuy)

Actually I wasn't the one that actually found the deal (believe it was "Vlad"), I just passed the information along....

They are very nice glasses though, fit me perfectly, and are much better than the older part of Wiley's I used a few years ago.

I initially got 2 pair, left one set with the smoked lens, and put the clear lens in the second. That way I don't have to switch the lenses out for day or night use. I found that switching lenses was easier if you remove the rubber eye gasket first. It is a 'tight fit' though, and I doubt if you will need to worry about a lens falling out by accident. LoL..

After trying them out I ordered another pair to keep as a 'spare'....

I got mine on Monday and have been wearing them all week. They're better quality than I was expecting and fit my facewell. They're not up to the quality of my Panoptix day/night Raptor's, but they also cost about $160 less. I agree that changing the lenses is a pain, but I got these mostly as a backup to my Panoptix and doubt I'll be wearing them at night.Great deal at $20.

One size fits all, but they seem to tend to fit the.... "larger heads" better.
