Bolle SILPSI Silium Safety Glasses - Clear

Work as an electrician on an ATEX site where we have to wear safety specs all day as a rule. Also use them when cutting, drilling or doing stuff where in likely to get rubbish in my eyes. Pros: Don't fog up, even when sweating and bent over. Scratch resistant. I've thrown them in my tool bag a few times and they've come out mostly unscathed but they aren't bulletproof. Look ok. Optically dont strain your eyes. Fit with a dust mask on. Cheap for how good they are. Cons: Don't come with a cloth bag to wipe them down and protect them. I guess that's just keeping the price down though. I wear these all day and I'm really glad I'm wearing them, they're good. I'd recommend you buy them if you want comfortable, anti-fog, clear safety specs that don't strain your eyes.

I bought these for my garage workshop, for eye protection against debris when using power cutting tools, bench grinders, sanders, etc. when I'm doing metal finishing or woodworking. At first, the logo on the glasses was very bothersome (I had read about this on other reviews as well), while not directly in the line of sight, it was like an insect or something had landed on the glasses, and was annoyingly distracting. With a little of my wife's nail varnish remover, and a sheet of kitchen roll, I was able to gently rub the logo away with little effort, leaving perfectly clear vision. I tested an area first just in case there was a reaction with the plastic, but it seemed chemically resistant. So, with the logo gone, what a difference: Interestingly, the logos are not shown on the product picture, there's actually one on each lens. The glasses are reasonably lightweight, very comfortable to wear, and offer a wide area of protection, after a few minutes, you get used to them easily. They also look reasonably stylish for safety glasses. Excellent product, which I also received very quickly from the supplier (Logo Ink Ltd).

The quality of the glasses is excellent, optically perfect with the glass making a great seal around your face. The frame is not light weight metal which makes them the heaviest set of glasses I have worn. I bought them for cutting the grass but have found that they are perfect cycling glasses too. The seal prevents wind being funnelled into you eyes. The major major flaw with these glasses is that they do not come with a case which will only accelerate the wear and tear of the glasses. This is a terrible weakness in this product but sorted if you have a spare case lying around that will fit. Addendum 19/08/13 After I wrote the initial review I searched the Amazon site and found a matching case for the glasses - BOLETUIB - Bolle Case Black rigid Polyester Belt clip &Loop. The cost was a further £6 but I ordered them to protect the glasses. So I now have a proper case and I am very happy with both. It is the first time I have come across a case being sold separately!

very good quality and good fit

Comfortable fit and clear lenses

The 5 stars are mainly because they do not fog (winter months) and are well built. Most other glasses will fog real quick when not moving (traffic lights etc.) and these don't. I have been reasonably (not manic) careful not to scratch them when not in use, never used my scour-ish bike gloves to clean them (may be once) and they are still solid at the frame and pretty clear. The arms are sprung and fit me well and painlessly. Good grip with the rubber ends too. A bit too clear on a sunny day, but perfect for those dull and dark winter days and nights, when you don't want the chill in your eyes. A bit of advice from my experience; stay away from 'yellow glass snipers' type that promise light and contrast enhancement if you are night riding. They will darken your view. Use these clear ones instead. By the way, there is a little black logo printed at bottom outer corner of each glass, that looks like a mini fly free riding on those spring-summer days. It took a while to get used to the fact that it is not a little bugger crawling on the inner glass...and when a real one does get in there...happy days!

Work well and very comfortable but started to crack and fall apart near the rivets for no apparent reason

Great product

La verdad es que esperaba unas gafas de calidad inferiores,es decir,unas gafas buenas pero inferiores,y al final estoy encantadisimo con ellas.No me ha gustado nada como vienen envueltas.Aconsejo que las mireis delante del repartidor.(por lo menos a mi como me llegaron en un carton protector,plastiquito y ya)Las gafas por suerte me llegaron perfectas.Son comodas,empañan muy muy mal(condiciones climatologicas abruptas,pa que empañen un poco siquiera,y repito comodas y baratas.Gran compra,salgo con la bici de noche y un accesorio vital

Amazing stylish glasses It wraps around the eyes really good no air or speck of dust could reach in. very clear lens, fits comfortably.made of very good material, feels very light on the head doesn't fog easily. in time you will forget you are wearing it .

I use these as eye protection for medical procedures. Optically great and great value.

Ottimi occhiali per la guida notturna in moto con casco jet. Buona la visuale e l'ingombro laterale delle aste che non da fastidio sulle orecchie.

Sitter bra. Inga anmärkningar.
