Xaegis Tactical sent me their newest set of shooting glasses to test and evaluate. They comes in 3 different lens tints: clear, yellow, and dark. Each comes in a hard nylon woven case with a cleaning cloth and a sparse instruction pamphlet.
These shooting glasses are generic Oakley and Bolle-style wraparound glasses. They are entirely polymer and silicone in construction. They claimed to be ANSI Z87.1 impact rated, UV-filtering, and anti-fog. I couldn’t test the first two claims but I aimed to test the last one.
I ran the Xaegis glasses over the mist of a room humidifier and they left no trace on the lenses. In comparison, the humidifier left a noticeable fog patch on my prescription eyeglasses. Next, I put on two layers of cloth face masks and put on the Xaegis glasses. I got only the barest hint of moisture on the lens after 60 seconds of talking and breathing.
These inexpensive $15 safety/shooting glasses lived up to their performance claims and will be going into my range bags as spares. If you’re interested in picking some up, they come in a variety of arm colors as well as lens tints.
