These are some of the best glasses I've had – I also have ICE, but these definitely win. They combine everything that's best in ESS ICE, and what's more, they don't fog up at all, even with a mask, which is very important.
ESS Crossbow One tactical glasses - Clear
Ballistic glasses from the Cross-Series have been designed for people who need effective eye protection in tactical situations, during military training and while working in difficult conditions. Their design combines high resistance to mechanical damage with comfort for prolonged wear and the ability to quickly change configuration.
Visors made of durable polycarbonate, DedBolt fastening system
Transparent visors made from 2.4mm thick polycarbonate have a visible light transmission of 90% and provide 100% protection against UVA/UVB radiation. The ClearZone FlowCoat technology protects the outer surface of the visor from scratches, while the inner part is protected from fogging. The ESS Optics technology eliminates all image distortions across the entire visor surface, ensuring natural perception of the surroundings and optimal sharpness of vision. The applied DedBolt system allows for quick and convenient visor exchange without the use of tools, enabling the adjustment of glasses to changing lighting conditions. The Cross-Series design allows for the visor to be exchanged for another from this series or the use of Suppressor frames, which work perfectly with hearing protectors or head communication systems.
Flexible frames, Tri-Tech Fit technology
Flexible frames made with Tri-Tech Fit technology ensure even pressure distribution, eliminating pressure points during wear. This solution significantly enhances wearing comfort, allowing long-term use without discomfort.
Slim temples with thickness ranging from 3.5 to 5mm are compatible with active hearing protectors and head communication systems. The inner part of the temples is coated with anti-slip material that increases stability during movement. The model is also equipped with an interchangeable nosepiece made of composite and silicone, improving fit to different face shapes.

The use of ClearZone FlowCoat technology protects the outside of the visor from scratching and the inside from fogging.
Tri-Tech Fit is a technology used in flexible glasses frames. It provides high wearing comfort and eliminates pressure points. It allows the glasses to fit the shape of the user's head.
DedBolt snap-in system allows for easy and very quick replacement of the visor - it is mounted by means of contoured notches on its edges and a hole in the center of the glasses.
ESS Optics is a standard used in visors that prevents image distortion and provides 100% UVA and UVB protection.
EN166 is a European standard for optical requirements and mechanical protection for glasses and goggles. Optical requirements include light transmission and diffusion, refractive properties, heat and UV resistance, corrosion and ignition. Mechanical protection is the resistance to object impact, within which there are 4 levels designated by the letters S, F, B and A, where S is the least protection and A is the highest.
EN172 European standard specifying markings and transmittance and corresponding test methods for sunscreens that protect against solar glare.
Z87.1 standard developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) for the durability of eye protectors. The standard includes two types of tests (3 tests) for the impact resistance of the lens and the stability of its seating in the frame: resistance to High Mass and High Velocity objects.
EN170 standard specifies protection levels and transmittance requirements for UV protection filters. Protective glasses complying with this standard provide the necessary protection against excessive ultraviolet radiation, which can lead to loss of visual clarity and deterioration of vision.
MIL-PRF-31013 is an American military standard that covers the requirements for protective glasses that provide ballistic eye protection. The standard specifies the glasses' ability to withstand the impact of a .15-inch (3.8-mm) steel bullet weighing 0.376 grams at 200 m/s.

The glasses are of very high quality, I am very satisfied with the purchase. They are perfect for shooting, made of durable and strong material – they seem indestructible. The visibility through the lenses is clear and without any distortion. Great product, worth buying, I recommend!
-
Some of the best glasses I’ve ever had. They are well profile-shaped, don’t get in the way when aiming and don’t fog up. I highly recommend.
-
There's not much to say – it's a class of its own and fits the nose exceptionally well.
-
They fit well and provide protection while cycling.
-
Excellent.
-
Resistant to damage, they provide a wide field of vision, don't fog up yet and are bound to last a long time.
-
I recommend them – you can buy an insert for corrective lenses.
-
They are lightweight, comfortable and very easy to adjust to the shape of the face.
-
They work great for airsoft.
-
They're lightweight, don't distort vision, and the wide visor doesn't restrict perspective. Fogging depends on weather conditions and the user.
-
They are comfortable and lightweight, and most importantly – they don't fog up like some glasses at a similar price. The price may seem high, but it's really worth it. I definitely recommend them!
-
You can find cheaper alternatives, but once you start using them the price no longer matters – they're very light and you can hardly feel them on your face, and they fog up much less than other safety glasses.
-
Ideal glasses for use with an assault rifle and collimator sight – the traditional bridge does not obstruct the field of view, providing full visibility and eye protection. Additionally, they have a reinforced polycarbonate coating and a very attractive appearance.
-
I use these glasses interchangeably with Crosshair, they're very solid and durable, and with proper care, they don't fog at all.
