I’ve worn Nemesis safety glasses that have either been provided or I have purchased my own since I entered the trades. I always held them as the gold standard for safety glasses. I’ve used clear, smoked, yellow and tinted depending on environment and task.About a year ago, one of my coworkers (both of us were railcar inspectors) bought a pair of Lazer Face glasses and absolutely loved them. He was always swapping arms, lenses and nose pieces. Before long he had like 5 different complete sets. We use to mess with him for wearing ‘ski goggles’. One day he had me try a pair on and I was very impressed with the feel, weight, and coverage. But not enough to get a pair.Fast forward, I went back to construction and back to being outdoors for 80% of the day. My previous pair of tinted nemesis were due for retirement. My family and I were also heading out for a lake vacation. I didn’t want to take a chance of loosing my Polarized Ray-Bans to the gods, nor did I want to wear non-polarized sunglasses on the water. So I decided to finally get some Lazer Faces.I wish I would have done this sooner. These are shockingly light, super comfortable, and look great! I would definitely say that the lens quality is on par with my Ray-Ban oversized aviators. I was hesitant (about half an hour before writing this review) and not completely sold on the polarization. It seemed nonexistent until I actually got in the sun. Now I am completely sold. The subdued American flag on the arms of these SOCOM’s is stunning. I can’t get over how lightweight these feel on my face for the size and coverage.These are super versatile and I am genuinely looking forward to wearing these to work.I thought it was crazy to drop this amount of money on safety glasses. But I know it will make me more aware of what I am doing with them and force me to take better care of them too. No more tossing my safety glasses around in my vehicle, tool bags or tool box. Or not paying attention to where I sat them down.I will update as i actually use them in the field.
