RothcoANSI Rated OTG Goggles

Awhile back, I saw what happens to normal glasses if a ricochet or other projectile hits them: they shatter to the point of becoming powder. I thought to get normal over-the-glasses shooting glasses, but then I learned about the different specifications for eye protection. The strongest specifications are the various US military specifications.After searching long and hard for eye protection conforming to the milspec's (generally: the military specifications are 7 times stronger than the ANSI standards for eye protection), I found these goggles. Unfortunately, I need prescription glasses. Looking into milspec prescription glasses quickly passed north of $500 and kept going. A recent change in my prescription made me think twice about that kind of expense that could have a short useful life.So I needed eye protection that goes over glasses. I read the reviews and ordered. They arrived, and I've been impressed. Fair caution: I haven't actually taken them on the range yet. However, I'm able to put them over my glasses (which are frameless, and very light); the optics are extremely good: clear with little-to-no distortion.There are cutouts for the temple pieces of the glasses. Because my frames have the bendy titanium-style temple pieces, I do have to adjust them and the goggles after putting on the goggles, but once set, they seem to stay in place well.(The other thing I'm changing is my hearing protection from electronic ear muffs to electronic ear buds for less interference with my glasses, among other things.)Do I look like a goofball when I'm wearing them on a square range, and not as part of some tactical get-up? Yeah, probably. Do I care? No. After seeing the results of prescription glasses, then seeing the results of ANSI-compliant shooting glasses, it's worth it to me.I'll update after I get to the range and use them for a few hours in a row.

I really wish I could give more stars. For starters I have a large head and face. These goggles fit so well and still had room to be adjusted more. The strap has some grips on the inside so it doesn't slide when running. The air circulation is very good stock but I did cut the metal wire for airsoft. Now these goggles are legit ballistic so they will help stop or show down shrapnel. Bbs don't even scratch or dent them. The padding is comfortable and they fit well over my huge glasses. These goggles didn't fog up one bit. The problem was my glasses keep fogging because the inside of these goggles is so well sealed that air could only get through the vent holes. I got the smoke version which IMO is too dark but they are UV400 which is really cool.

I did have a little bit of an issue with fogging with these. Nothing I couldn't work through, but still. VERY comfortable!

I took a chance on ordering these goggles because of their claims of fitting well over eyeglasses. I've never purchased any other Rothco products before this. When they arrived I tried them on immediately. Claims verified!!! They fit very well. I feel no awkward pressure anywhere on my face. The lens seems to be high quality (no distortion) and the strap, once adjusted, is very comfortable. Fair warning, removal of the goggles may involve simultaneous removal of your glasses. I haven't figured out that technique, yet.

Arrived in a short period of time - as described! I have not used them yet but they appear to be of great quality and include the goggle sheath/cover which was not pictured. The stripes on the strap seen in the pictures appears to be a grippy material to keep the strap in place. The hinges on the side that move with the strap are for conforming to the larger circumference of a helmet and is the reason I bought these. They fit well over BC glasses. I purchased for emergency/off-road use. Great goggles for the price!

Just make sure to take off those little grid things. They are on the bottom of the visor and can be easily detached with your hand. Otherwise it's foggy like hell.Used for over a year. They're good.Also, no additional visor or anything. Very simple complication.

Honestly I recommend these because they are extremely comfortable. When you have glasses I use them for Airsoft and they barely fog up and with the goggles straps It has grips on them. What's really nice so it really locks onto your helmet.!

These things fit over my stereotypical giant black framed hipster nerd glasses, which is great. I'm glad I just got something that works. That being said, they fog up insanely fast. 15 minutes into my range time and the interior of my goggles are WET. It is awful. They're big, they work, but they are ventilated horribly.
