Review: Not a welder, just some punk who likes goggles... - I purchased these goggles as an accent piece for a specific aesthetic I'm going for (as many others have, i.e. steampunk), so I can't honestly say how well they work from a welder's standpoint. I will say, however, that they are very sturdy (have had them for a little over a week now, accidentally dropped from about 5ft, no visible damage whatsoever), so that leads me to believe that they would do such a job very well. They're easy enough to adjust, and thankfully, every piece of these things are separate, meaning you can individually unscrew each lens to do whatever you'd want with them. From experience, I've learned that you can cinch them on top of a loose-fitting hat to ensure that it won't fly off in strong wind. I'm sure there are plenty of other things that would do such a job just as well, however, they surely wouldn't look nearly as cool. And in a pinch, they work as pretty decent sunglasses if you don't mind seeing everything in green.
Review: Bought for modification, perfectly nice pair of googles - I found these goggles when looking for a pair to modify for steampunk cosplay. They were inexpensive and seemed easy to work with. They came with 2 sets of lenses, one clear and one dark welding set. The strap is black elastic with a blue design over it. It was easy to remove and replace with leather. The pieces are all easy to take apart and put back together which makes painting them a snap. The covers of the air vents are also removable so I was able to paint them and decorate them as well. I find them to be comfortable enough, the area around the nose is all hard plastic but unless you have them on super tight it's no worse than wearing plastic sunglasses. The goggles are held together at the nose by a ball chain. It's quite long for me, so I found the sweet spot and trimmed the excess for fear of poking my eye out :) For anyone interested here's how they came out with just a few slight moderations : [...]

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I watch a solar eclipse with these?**
A: I read a report that suggests buying lenses with a #14 shade if you're planning to watch an eclipse.

**Q: Would this be good if I'm working night shift and have to wake up at noon to go to an outdoor restroom in a desert? My old sunglasses where dark enoug**
A: odd, question, but I have spent a lot of time in the desert and know where you are coming from, yes. They are not real comfortable but they would work for that.

**Q: How dark are the lenses on these? Also, how comfortable are they to wear?**
A: well they are oacetyl goggles. so they are pretty dark. darker than dark sunglasses. not dark enough to arcweld. i wore mine at burning man and they did perfect there. you are able to take the dark lenses out and just wear the clear ones. I tried to find a lighter shade but no real luck yet. could make something if you wanted using plastic. also they are fairly comfy, i had an older pair from 50's that were better fitting, these are shaped a bit differently, but im sure it depends on the shape of your face.

**Q: Has anybody tried wearing these on a motorcycle?**
A: I haven't ridden with them.  But wearing them for longer than 20-30 mins is a little uncomfortable on the nose.  I have used them for sunglasses though, and I do like them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great set of goggles at a great price!
*by S***V on May 21, 2010*

I got these goggles on sale for about 7 or 8 bucks and they are completely worth it. I think everyone knows what goggles are so I'll outline what I think is different about these goggles than others. First they are made of hard plastic all around. I've seen some that are made of like a flimsy rubber plastic and these are much more durable. Second, these goggles have a vent on the side of each eye piece that allow for ventilation and greatly reduce if not eliminate all together the goggles fogging up during use. Third, there are two sets of lenses. A set of thin clear plastic lenses over thicker glass lenses which provide the tinting for welding and cutting. If you are going to use these for general purpose shop work, then I suggest you manufacture your own clear lenses out of lexan or something similar, as the clear lenses it comes with won't protect your eyes from any sizable flying debris. Overall I'm very satisfied with them!
