Styling and Safety
5.11 Tactical uses input from law enforcement, special operations and fire personnel to produce high quality eyewear that looks great and provides unexcelled safety. They exceed ANSI Z87.1-2003 and EN 166 (F) High Velocity Impact Safety and Optical Standards. 

Features and Benefits
Smoke lenses provide maximum glare reduction, won't distort colors, and are excellent in bright/glare conditions.  T-ShellTM coating means resistance to scratching, cracking, and crazing.  SeleniteTM polycarbonate is die-cut to produce lenses without distortion from any angle and is ten times more impact resistance than glass or resin lenses.  Frames are built with GrilamidTM TR-90, a homopolyamide nylon characterized by an extremely high alternative bending strength, low density, and high resistance to chemical and UV damage. They are virtually indestructible.

Quality and Product Development Expertise
5.11 Tactical® eyewear is designed, developed, and manufactured by Wiley X® Eyewear who achieves industry-leading standards through their precision manufacturing and state-of-the-art quality control.

      These glasses are very comfortable and stlyish. The lenses are perfectly tinted so as not too be to dark, but they are also not to light and are great in bright sun. I really like them and would highly recommend them.

      Comments about 5.11 Tactical Shear Eyewear:

      I have driven, walked and ran in these so far. They feel light but durable. Comes with a hard case which is great. They sometimes feel too big for my face. I think it is the wide nature of the frame. Glare and snow blindness(North East US) are reduced tremendously. Great overall product.

      Service and delivery comments:

      Had to wait a bit. Wrote the company to find out if my sunglasses went out with the "Product will ship on". Sent them 2 days after email. Very prompt. Will shop again.

            Comments about 5.11 Tactical Shear Eyewear:

            I have enjoyed SHEAR Eyewear from 5.11 so far; Driving in the bright sun is now much smoother & more comfortable, while rainy days seem clearer.
            They are very light weight, and slick, I forget I have them on.
            I plan to take them when hunting and fishing but worry about loosing them. I do not mind taking Falcons out to the rough places but SHEAR is too new for that yet....
            It was very hard to get my first set and hope that they will be easier to find from now on.

            Comments about 5.11 Tactical Shear Eyewear:

            I purchased two pair of these glasses when they very first came available, [...] The second pair was a backup in case the first pair failed. The first pair lasted for well over a year, but the rubber parts (i.e., nose pieces and ear pieces) began to deteriorate and separate from the frame. Finally, they reached the point of no return, so they went into the trash and the backup pair came out. When shopping for a new backup pair I was disappointed to see that the design has not changed. Perhaps my first pair was defective, but I somehow suspect this is a design flaw. I believe that I will try another model this time around. I'd love to see a pair based on the old Romer design. I had a pair of Romer's that lasted 3 years.
