Amazon.com Product Description
Gargoyles knows all--the balance between good looks and technology goes beyond every level of expectation. The Ballistic Defense system not only provides 5 to 6 times greater impact-resistance, it has the capability of stopping a .22 caliber bullet at 20 feet--which exceeds the MIL-STD 622 ballistic test. The lenses are also coated with a NASA derived scratch-resistant and anti-fog coating which offers 30% more protection than conventional treatments.
Product Reviews I ordered these after considering many pairs of more expensive sunglasses. Being an "old dude," I remember fondly the "Terminator" glasses in the eighties, and had 3 pair including the "Gold Standards," which I retired last year after 20 years of use. I was looking for something more updated, however, and did not want to drop another $200 on a pair of Oakleys. These are awesome glasses for the price, and wear well and have the Gargoyles "wrap around" style and protect my eyes well. I would definately recommend to anyone who wants a good pair of all around glasses without putting a major dent in your wallet. One caveat, however; these do fog up easily if you use them for any sports, so take that into consideration if you are a runner or outdoor athlete.
