ESS - HIGH ADRENALINE GLASSES

Having the right glasses in a tense situation can make the difference between life and death.  Especially if they have ballistic capabilities and can stop a shotgun blast from up to 35 feet away.  That's the case with the ESS High Adrenaline Sunglasses.  These glasses have rapid exchange lenses and are RX compatible, meaning those who require prescription can get ballistic type lenses with a simple slip of paper from the optometrist.

We had a chance to test these glasses and they fit very nicely.  The can be worn around town on patrol and look like regular sunglasses, and the lenses can be switched out in moments if the situation dictates clear or yellow lenses.  We found a number of uses, but most of all we found it was easy to wear the sunglasses and keep all of the extra lenses in a patrol bag.  Lenses can also be purchased separately so if you handle your gear like we do you will only have to buy replacements when you scratch them. 

The glasses are dubbed as medium fit, but you have a slim narrow shaped noggin you might want to try them on to ensure they do not look too big.  Here are some additional colors being offered:

For around $100.00 these glasses are a worthy investment, especially if your work environment entails having firearms pointed in your general direction.  For more information please visit the ESS website at http://www.esseyepro.com
