G&P goggled

theshaneler · January 20th, 2009, 13:28

I have a question for you guys, I have been looking for a pair of goggles that fit over glasses well. I was looking at the G&P special forces goggles on ehobbyasia. I have read reviews and all that but what seems very hard to find is the fit with glasses. Anyone have experience with this? If you know a better goggle in a simalar price range let me know!

Thanks

Your best bet is to get a pair of goggles that can take prescription inserts so you dont have to wear glasses underneath. Sure they will be more expensive but your eye protection is the one thing you do not want to cheap out on.

When it comes to vision correcting lenses, don't waste your time or money, buy goggles designed for you in mind. By this I mean, look into ESS goggles that have Rx insert capabilities or other brands that do this. There are goggles that can be had in the $100 range that you can get corrective lenses cut for by any lens shop. You might be looking at it as one large bill to foot, but the thing is that you pay it one time, and if you invest into something like the ESS where you can change out the protective lens you are saving boat loads of money when it comes time to replace the scratched lens.

An opinion maybe, but I still say its the best option for corrective lenses.

How about the Bolle X800, I got one of those and it fit over my glasses like man and woman, no need modify or anything also it's not foggy at all even in dry summer and humidity.

If you're curious about fit, wear your glasses to your local ski/snowboard shop and ask them to try on a pair of Oakley A-Frames. The G&P "Special Forces" goggle is a replica of the Oakley A Frame.

I have somewhat wide glasses and I use ESS Land Ops goggles. They work really well and don't fog up on me. I've had one time where my glasses actually fogged up but the goggles didn't. Haha.

Anyways, here's the link for the goggles.

Hi everyone, forgive me if i have a lack of nessesary info as i am new to ASC

I have the G&P goggles and they fit fine over small/medium glasses, this i know because i wear glasses. They also have good ventilation. The only thing i have to warn you is that the lenses might come a bit scratched. But anyway they are a good pair of goggles.

Look into ESS and Oakley's. They will give you the best comfort with glasses or with inserts.

AVOID G&P GOGGLES AT ALL COST!

Not comfortable and the fit is wrong. Way too open to fit a normal face.

I got a pair last year and its the last pair of G&P I will ever buy.

there was a big thread about Rx goggles and such. do a search cause I know there was a lot of information posted from someone who rarely posts especially that much.
