ESS Crossbow APEL Clear/Smoke Gray Tactical Glasses - Black

The Crossbow ballistic eyewear, belonging to the Cross-Series product line, offers advanced protection with scratch-resistant and easily replaceable ballistic visors. Equipped with Anti-Fog technology, these visors maintain a clear, undistorted field of view and deliver 100% UVA and UVB protection. Included on the U.S. Army Approved Protective Eyewear List (APEL), these glasses meet demanding military standards.

Engineered with a ballistic first-class optical visor that boasts 2.4 mm thickness and is crafted from polycarbonate, this model offers outstanding resistance to both impact and deformation. Constructed to the ESSOPTICS standard, the visor ensures absolute clarity without distortion while delivering 100% protection against UVA and UVB rays. Crossbow glasses stand out due to minimal or negligible fogging and superior scratch resilience, thanks to the advanced ClearZone FlowCoat system which employs an external layer to defend against scratches and an internal layer to prevent fog buildup on the lens.

Featuring the DedBolt snap-in mechanism, the visor can be switched out with exceptional ease and speed—secured through precision-shaped notches at the ends and a central hole for stable mounting.

Flexible frames featuring Tri-Tech Fit technology deliver ultimate comfort and eliminate pressure points. The interior of the temples boasts a non-slip rubber coating for enhanced comfort during wear. Compatibility within the Cross-Series allows easy swapping to another visor in the series or to the ultra-slim Suppressor frames, which offer seamless integration with ear protection and comms systems. Outfitted with a cushioned, interchangeable composite-silicone nose piece, these glasses ensure all-day comfort.
