I used them for a very long time, over 2 years. Honestly, I can recommend them. Now I bought a set because in the previous ones I only had the darkened lens. The price is high, but you pay for comfort and safety.
ESS Crossbow tactical glasses - 3LS
Ballistic Glasses Crossbow, part of the Cross-Series product line. They feature scratch-resistant, easy-to-replace ballistic visors with anti-fog protection that do not distort the image across the entire field of view and provide 100% protection against UVA and UVB radiation. The model's design is crafted to ensure maximum mechanical resistance, high wearing comfort, and full compatibility with protective equipment and communication systems.
visors made of durable polycarbonate, anti-fog protection
Visors made from 2.4 mm thick polycarbonate in Clear, Yellow, and Smoke Gray colors provide visible light transmission of 90%, 85%, and 15%, respectively, as well as 100% protection against UVA/UVB radiation. The use of ClearZone FlowCoat technology protects the exterior of the visor from scratches and the interior from fogging. ESS Optic technology eliminates image distortion across the entire visor surface, allowing the user to maintain natural environmental perception and full vision sharpness. The DedBolt system allows for quick and convenient visor replacement without the use of tools, enabling easy adaptation of the glasses to current lighting conditions.
flexible frames, Tri-Tech Fit technology
Frames are made from light and flexible composite resistant to bending and damage. Tri-Tech Fit technology ensures even pressure distribution and eliminates pressure points, significantly enhancing comfort during prolonged use. Anti-slip inner arm finish stabilizes the glasses on the head even during intense movement. Additionally, the model features a comfortable composite-silicone nose pad and a flexible strap for preventing accidental loss of the glasses.
ESS Crossbow 3LS is part of the modular Cross-Series system, allowing for quick visor exchange and compatible frame and accessory use.

Glasses worth recommending. I have been using them intensively for over a year. Pressure points have been reduced to zero. Lens replacement is very simple and convenient. There are scratches on the surface. I don't know what coating it would have to be to have zero scratches. Anti-fog coating—if you don't use a special cloth, the glasses will fog up, not as much as regular ones, but they do fog. The nosepiece has already been replaced once—the silicone did not last. I recommend them, but not at this price. It should be about 150-200 PLN lower.

Class on its own. I bought additional P2B corrective inserts and the equipment works great. I recommend!

The best model of glasses from ESS. Comfortable and, most importantly, they protect the eyes well.

I recommend it—great workmanship and comfort of use improves comfort during full sun.

Well-made and thoughtfully designed frames, the yellow visor works well on gloomy days, and the packaging is sturdy and does not get crushed. I recommend it.
