I ran into a guy who sells ballistic eyepro for Revision Eyewear, and ended up with some samples.....have to say, outstanding.
This isn't exactly a review or an advertisement, but maybe a little of both.
I haven't shot mine (and am not going to) but their site claims things like stopping a .22 and #6 shot at 15 feet. The salesman also stomped a set all to hell and they held their shape remarkable well.
The real thing here is how comfortable I found them. I wore the basic "Sawfly" model (which look like ESS Ice) and the sportier "Hellfly" model, and both were more comfortable than anything I've been issued. I've used the ESS Ice, Oakley M-frames, and Wiley X's, and these just fit better, mostly due to the adjustable nose piece.
I have the "Wolfspider" goggles as well, but they don't seem to fit as well as the issued Oakley goggles do. Then again, I wasn't wearing them with a helmet like they are designed for. The seal was against my face was more comfortable than the hard rubber edge of my old goggles.
Expensive though, I'll say that against them, but if you're looking for something with some quality to it these seem to have it.
Endorsed by MCX if that means anything to anyone.
