Swiss EyeApache Sports Glasses

My original review is below. However, I wanted to add that I have just experienced the most amazing customer service from Swiss Eye.I wear my glasses a lot - in all sorts of circumstances - so my glasses take a battering. A couple of weeks ago the right hand arm broke, so I emailed Swiss Eye directly to ask if they could sell me a replacement arm. Within 2 hours I'd had a response asking me for my address, and 2 days after that a replacement arm had been delivered to me in Scotland, from Swiss Eye Germany, FREE! This is phenomenal customer service and reinforces my opinion that you can't do better than Swiss Eye for ballistic eye protection. I'm blown away.....Original review:Wanting sunglasses that would protect my eyes whilst shooting; strimming; mountain biking; motorcycling, I had a good look around at the options. Lots of choice and lots of different prices - what to do? I then met a guy at the pub who'd just come back from Afghanistan. He recommended Swiss Eye - saying lots of his regimental colleagues were fans of the brand. With a testimonial like that, who could hesitate?A month since purchase, I have to say I'm very happy. The glasses are extremely comfortable, the frame both strong and flexible and lens changing a doddle. They fit really well with both MTB and my full face helmet and the close fitting nature of the glasses means there's just enough ventilation to stop misting up, with no dust getting through at speed.On the subject of lenses, the optical quality is outstanding. I've just done two 17 hour driving stints - Leeds to Central France on Friday, return on Sunday. Using the yellow lenses in poor weather conditions and the dark ones in sunshine I had zero eye strain - something I've never had before. Superb.Downsides? These glasses don't fold flat, so they won't slip into a breast pocket. However, I use a lanyard, so no issue for me. The other point of note is that the semi rigid case is enormous - 7" x 4" x 2,5" - but there is a cloth bag as part of the deal so you don't have to lug the case around.So, great glasses and worth every penny - and you can give the case to your memsahib as a new handbag!

I bought these on reading the reviews on AARSE the military forum for ex service people who sometimes recommend useful bits of kit. The wraparound glasses have one major drawback not mentioned elsewhere and that is they are bulky when folded for storage in one's pocket. They are elliptical in shape when folded so not like normal glasses which fit into a flat case. The best way to carry these if not in use is to use the Gorilla neck cord. I hope the makers can come up with a solution to this irritant.

These were bought for my husband as he has recently taken up shooting. He was, however, looking for a general all rounder and these sunglasses fit the bill perfectly. You can change the lenses on them - there's a yellow pair and a clear pair (I think) and they look great on. Really professional.

Great glasses , hard to purchase anywhere.. real quick delivery..Thanks

These are fairly comfortable glasses. I even bought a second pair.Unfortunately the plastic mounting point for the arm pivot pin is extremely weak, and both pairs broke in exactly the same spot. Comparing the design to other brands, such as Smith and ESS, and you can see the difference in construction. These two brands are only very slightly more expensive.Swiss Eye is now added to my list of "never buy from again".

Using these out at sea whilst employed as an armed contractor. Does what they need to do at a good price. Definitely recommend.

Great glasses for Clay shooting. They have three sets of lenses (clear/yellow/smoke) and conform to ANSI Z87.1+ andSTANAG 2920. They come with a soft case and pouch.

Pricey, but I really liked them. Broke after a few months, not sure how, but may have been my own fault.

J'ai été satisfait du produit. très solide

... eine für den Preis sehr empfehlenswerte Sonnenbrille mit herausragender Passform!

High end product. Great buy.

Es la segunda vez que las compro, da un aspecto muy marcial y tienen unas lentes intercambiables que sirven para otras condiciones climatológicas, el problema de estas gafas es que su montura es plástico y se deteriora bastante rápido, es fácil que se rompa por la unión con la patilla y te quedes sin gafas, es un aspecto a valorar por eso le doy las 3 estrellas

Occhiali davvero ottimi in ogni condizione! Completi come nella descrizione, avvolgenti quanto basta per coprire completamente gli occhi dal sole.
