A good deal for the frugal Steampunker/Mad Scientist October 19, 2009 Linnea (United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
These goggles are very durable and adjustable - a good deal for the 10+- bucks.
For those who are unaware, there are two lenses per eye: a pretty green glass one with a clear plastic one on top. Unfortunately, one of the plastic lenses arrived scratched, but it's something I can live with. The lenses are easily removed because the plastic ring in the very front unscrews. For some reason, the image used gives this ring a sort of "octogonal" look...which isn't the case with the actual goggles. They are very round, which is what I was hoping for.
The goggles are a bit larger than I would have expected, but I'm guessing this is normal for welding purposes. The plastic also digs into the skin around my nose a bit, and they aren't so comfortable resting on my forehead, so I'm going to add some thin rubber padding.
I plan on using these for a costume/welding, so I really can't complain much due to the great price.
These goggles are just begging to be customized with a fresh coat of paint, watch gears, and a new pair of lenses.
Have fun!
Great for a pair Steampunk goggles. September 13, 2009 Brian W. Fraser (Tacoma, WA) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
These goggles work great for a pair of steampunk goggles. Now granted I spray painted them and glued some additional parts on it but the shape still lends itself very nicely to being modded for steampunk.
Here are two pics of the goggles after I got done with them :)

Cool Goggles August 27, 2009 Patty J. Bonvallet (Orlando, FL USA) These are the highest quality goggles I have ever bought for such a good price.
Not great for long term wear July 15, 2009 Captain Tetanus (WI) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have really sensitive eyes, and I've been looking for some extra dark sunglasses. I saw the movie Riddick with Vin Diesel and thought the goggles he wore in the movie would work very well. These aren't quite it. While the dark lenses are great, you do get a bit of tunnel vision. The lenses are too big and the eye cup too deep. I wanted them for driving and the lenses are great for filtering the sun, though I do prefer polarized in some ways and did switch back to my sunglasses. I love the green lens color, so much better than brown or grey. When I wear them my friend says I look like Monty Burns piloting an "automocar". They're uncomfortable after fifteen minutes, they're very hot, and I just can't get the fit right. I'm going to look for a smaller pair. Why doesn't someone make a double dark sunglass for those of us with sensitive eyes?!!?
good June 13, 2009 J. Husband 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
These are good goggles but the clear lenses are made of cheap plastic. The dark lenses are made of glass. They don't fog up to bad like some goggles do. I find these to be quite comfortable but they leave marks on my face. These goggles are good but not perfect.
