Hercules 7 Safety Sunglasses Photochromic Auto-Darkening Clear to Smoke Lens ANSI Z87.1

This a comparison review with the 3M brand (pictured on the right). Much better build quality than the 3M Securefit Smart lens (SF613AS) and cheaper too. The 3M are temples are very flimsy and already breaking thus why I'm replacing them. This safety glasses fit me better on my face and they are pretty light. I am a 185 lbs 5' 11" male. The Global Vision are slightly darker in the sun. However, they take like a minute longer to clear up in the shade. These are not sunglasses so need to manage expectations. They turn to smoke color in full sun, not as dark as real sunglasses. They are dark enough where I don't have to squint my eyes when I'm working outside on the yard. I cannot comment on their durability since I just got them but I highly recommend them based on functionality and comfort.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Great, fits well, comfortable all day, doesn't touch my face. Makes bright screens and work between in and outdoors easier. I get migraines less with these compared to the crappy ones my work gives me. No issues after a 50 hour week and getting sprayed in the face with oil. 5/5 Tint isn't super dark and takes a little to transition but not bad. They look good on me too.

looks great, it does transition, however it does take a while to transition but it's still a great safety glasses.

I have had them in use for a week and they are good. Better than my company issued safety glasses. More comfortable too. I can pretty much wear them all day. As for the tinting, it does work. Not as dark as true sunglasses, but noticeable. Helps when I have to go between buildings.

I'm very happy with these. No they are not sunglasses. But they tone down the sun enough you won't be squinting. Use them daily for work. Plan on purchasing a few more pairs. They do take a few minutes to adjust to brightness, but as expected.

The darkening feature is the reason I bought these safety "SUNGLASSES". They may darken a tad but no where near what I would call Sunglasses. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being good protection from sunlight I would give these a 1.

These glasses are good, but they can be better. I like that they’re lightweight, and the rubber parts to prevent slippage. However, from going inside to outside, it takes a while for the lens to transition to the dark tint. This picture attached was after 3 minutes of direct sunlight. If you can deal with the sun in your eyes while it transitions then these are okay, but I’d say to get a clear and tinted set for cheaper rather than spending $40 on this one pair. If the tint was darker and the transition was faster definitely would rate it 5 stars.

I love these safety glasses that change color in the sun

Cómodos, acciona bien el fotocromatico, me ayudas a disminuir destellos

Looks amazing. It’s good with any work site. Does what it’s suppose to do.

Buenos lentes , y el sistema de fotocromática trabaja muy rápido y se nota!!

It’s perfect for works indoors and outdoor

Very comfortable. I use the glasses daily, and in all sorts of environments; boating, biking, motorcycle, gardening. I would order these again if needed.
