    Meant to go and get a pair of them today and give them a test. Nice on vtec. Think I'll pick up a pair or two for spares and loaners.

    Nice. Marley is 15 mins away on the bike, and Lidls opposite it :) I'll be getting some in the morning. When I get em I'll go for a run around the garden and then post a pic of them when I'm done, see if they fog.

    Thanks rich.

    only 12yoyo's and their made from polycarbonate. there designed for impact and are catagory 1, just shot them too and there fine., :)

    Just picked up a couple of pairs, they look and feel great, the foam is a complete seal, which is one of the reasons I was avoiding most safety glasses. Spare lenses (categories 3 and 4), a carry pouch and a head strap make this a steal for 12 bux. The Naas and Clane Lidl still have heaps of 'em.

    Oh, and while I was there (since they're doing cycling stuff) I picked up some nice black fingerless gloves, which I've been looking for for a while. Sorted.

    funnny you mention that vtec,because just before the red-hammer event i needed a pair of goggles and i was told by paul from curious unlimited (army surplus shop up north)to go to homebase or B&Q as they do excellent work goggles,which i bought and are extremely comfortable and dont fog up that much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 161 ✭✭(F.L.) Anders


    Cheers vtec, its about time I picked up some glasses to replace my broken face mask!...now lets hope there are some left in the Maynooth branch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kdouglas


    Picked up two pairs of these in Lidl on Greenhills Road about an hour ago, they still had plenty left. Couldn't find any in the branch on Walkinstown Avenue though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,170 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    Just got mine in Lidl Ballinteer(opposite marley), they have loads left too.
    Bargain.

    Even this isn't Airsoft related, I think they're good. I wore them playing cricket on Monday and no fogging up at all. The foam is an ideal seal and keeps the sweat out of your eyes too which is handy. The light enhancing on them is good too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 430 ✭✭private.G


    So buying `em would`nt be a waist of money..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,170 ✭✭✭✭ED E


    Rich, are all the lenses strong enough to resist a bb?

    And, it seems, they just dont fog! Unless I extend my l;ower lip and purposely blow on them(fogs slightly) they stay clear.

    Kudos to rich.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Just a word of warning

    Cheeky, (neil) shot at his pai and the lenses flew out.

    This also happend to 3 other pairs that were down at hrta tonight, although two other pairs where grand.

    So be warned..

    Definatly advise you test yours out, or set yourself happy with one pair of lenses and make sure they stick


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 430 ✭✭private.G


    Just emptyed 1 lo-cap on mine. And they r fine.
    lucky me...


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭Masada


    id say you wally's didnt fit the lens in properly.,lol have had it happen to gaurder ones aswell.,
    A few mins ago after hearing that i shot mine again, with 1J, no probs., :) the first time i did it the other night the lens poped out coz i didnt install it right, after refitting them ive shot them a load of times and their grand., :).,

    just messin with ya.,


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,258 ✭✭✭Cheeky monkey


    Ahhh **** yea :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,363 ✭✭✭gerrowadat


    it did seem to be only people who'd changed the lenses that had that problem, so maybe there'a knack to it.

    Cheeky came over and warned me about the glasses last night, and I put mine on the ground and 3 uf us opened up on them on full auto point blank, not a mark and no sign of popping out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 161 ✭✭(F.L.) Anders


    I didnt change the lenses and mine popped out after one shot on one lense but the other lense sustained a 5-10 round burst with no ill affects.I think its down to the angle of impact. A little glue around the lense would solve the popping out although you are then stuck with one lense colour. At the price I think they are pretty decent all in all.
