Good evening folks. Id like to upgrade from my big box store safety goggles to something that provides better protection. Ive decided Id like to stay with goggles, rather than going to a full shield or safety glasses with side shields.

Are there any "minimum safety standards" I should make sure they meet?

Can anyone suggest a product theyve been pleased with?

Thanks!
Fred

I have a pair of Bolle X90 goggles that are pretty good.

When I was equipping my AF Reserve Troops for deployment to the various areas of the world, we found that ESS had about the best product out there. http://www.militarywarfighter.com/Eye_Safety_Systems_Eyewear_ESS_s/20.htm Dan

Here's a good overview of the current ANSI standards; http://www.uvex.us/uploadedFiles/ProductConfiguration/ProductLiterature/Uvex_SP_ANSIZ87_2010_FAQ.pdf
