Protection and comfort – these are the main factors that guided the developers of Gatorz when developing these glasses. In addition, Blastshield glasses can easily adapt to different environments while maintaining optimal visual acuity and an above-average field of vision. In the MilSpec variant, additionally with ballistic protection.
Thanks to the new Innovative Clamp Mechanism (ICM) system, you can quickly and easily change the lenses of the glasses, depending on your current needs or the weather. The center mount feature reduces the risk of visual impairment in the event of an impact and also brings with it a wider field of vision.
Gatorz Blastshield glasses are suitable both for the shooting range and for everyday wear, but they can also be used by professionals from the ranks of the armed forces, who can use them for their regular daily tasks.
In its ballistic variant (MilSpec), the glasses have superior protection – they were successfully tested against two hits from a .15 caliber weapon at velocities between 213 and 221 meters per second, without cracking, shattering or loosening.
