Safety glasses

[shovelmike]

I have DeWalts, also had prescription lenses made for my Oakley Eye Jackets, which are so light and comfortable that you forget you have them on.

As a monocular or one-eyed guy, I have always worn safety goggles over my regular plastic glasses. I don't like dust and stuff, and rarely weld, but using a wheeled string trimmer throws more stuff on your face (and everywhere else) than any other device I've encountered. Anyone who used a string trimmer without eye protection is set to lose an eye or two.

I have used mine the whole mowing season (ran over them with the scag mower once but only has a few scratches) they are ok but I would like to get something better (snugger fit)so I'v been loooking into what the younger ones use for paint ball.

My soil is sandy and dust is a major problem while running my ZTR. Ive had good luck with these dust goggles

As long as you keep moving fogging isnt an issue. Yellow tint works great in low light, dark tint on those sunny days.

I absolutely agree with you regarding eye protection, I came much too close to becoming monocular 37 years ago when a limb on a hedge tree caught on the vertical exhaust on my tractor, snapped back, and a thorn pierced my left eye.
I converted the tractor to low exhaust as appropriate for my wooded land.
Always protect those eyes!

Depending on the make, replacement shields are available which eliminates purchasing the ratcheting headgear.

Put some flat/sand blades on your mower and you won't be eating dust anymore.
