Black Welding Cup Goggles - 50mm Eye Cup (5)

This was perfect for my grandson playing the many characters of Spiderman. Small price to pay for happiness.

These goggles are great for the price. I got two for only around $12 which is a steal. They are made with durable feeling plastic and actual glass lenses which feel really professional. They come with both clear and shaded glass lenses, but If you remove the shaded lenses the clear ones rattle around even when tightened, so they can't be used easily as safety goggles. The shaded lenses are dark, and yet not too dark. Looking directly at my phone's LED light is still slightly unpleasant, but certainly not painful as it would be without the goggles on. They look cool on the face and are very adjustable.Overall I recommend these both as props and as effective welding goggles.

I bought these for... No reason at all, other than I've always wanted a pair like these and I think they're really cool. They got to me right when they said they would, good shipping, right product, didn't have the problem some users had where they would receive an alternate model or something. I often wear them on top of my head. Like a boss. Anyhow, well built, and WILL protect against UV rays IF the glass lenses are in, the other ones are ONLY tinted plastic, so put/leave the glass in if you want UV protection. That said, you can remove the shaded lenses if you want to wear them regularly as an accessory, or even possibly, you could use the lenses as a template to make your own sunglasses out of them, so highly interchangeable. Fairly dark, you COULD use them as sunglasses if it was daylight out and see just fine. They ARE darker than regular sunglasses, however and have a slightly green tint to them. It's due to this and the slightly blocked peripheral vision that I'd not recommend using them while driving: Driving would be possible, but it would block a bit of peripheral vision and the green tint may throw off some colors. Not sure, haven't tried. You can look into the sun directly and it is about as bright as a pretty bright LED flashlight with no glasses on. However, there is one small qualm. You can adjust the width of the goggles, as there is a ball chain that can go different notches inside of the eye pieces, but the chain goes through a plastic tube as a "cushion" I suppose. However, I was...blessed...with a rather large nose, and it's very uncomfortable unless the goggles are set very loosely, it's not a huge deal, as they stay snug to my head but I'd prefer them a bit tighter, either way, the little tube is a bit uncomfortable, it would have been better if they had put even a rubber or foam or silicone tube instead of hard plastic, but optimally a molded nosepiece would be best, but the tube is fairly uncomfortable, but not a huge deal. The actual eye covers themselves are fine, just the part across the bridge of my nose. Another thing is that the side vents don't do a lot if it's even slightly humid or cold out, they work fine in hot and dry weather but the goggles tend to fog up even with the vents open as they can be without being removed. These two items collectively are enough to remove a star, but nothing else worth complaining about. Well, nothing else period.PROS: Cheap, Well built, dark as they claim to be, can wear them on top of my head for long periods, look good, you can customize them however you like. Including using the lens as a template for making paper cutouts for turning them into rave goggles or something of the like. Not too much to complain about here.CONS: A bit uncomfortable for longer periods, side vents don't tend to do much in the way of fogging up. None else.

Comfort , value for money

I just got my package today. I compared them side by side with a pair of Hobart frames that I had it's very clear these are made in the same factory as the Hobart product they're almost identical. There are a few minor differences, they definitely have cheaper lenses I definitely would not trust them to protect my eyes from bright light. The vent caps on the sides don't have the text imprinted on them. There's no lens gasket which prevents them from rattling when tightened down. Other than that they are exactingly identical in every way even down to the mold seams being in the same place.

I purchased two pairs of these for costume purposes. So it met our needs very well. That these are being offered as 'welding goggles' without specification of whether or not you can actually use them for that, is kind of a concern. My son has done some welding and these are not adequate protection for a welder. So for costume purposes...5 stars. Otherwise, you might want to get something else. The goggles came on time and in good condition. Thanks for a great buying experience!

I bought these to use with a Steampunk costume. I cannot speak for how well these work as welding goggles.The best part of these goggles (for costuming) is the price. They are an easy way to get a modifiable pair of goggles for a steampunk costume. Almost all parts are easily replaced or modified. The strap can be replaced fairly easily, and the caps for the lenses are easy to unscrew to replace or modify the lenses. If you are going to removed the tinted lenses, I recommend leaving the clear ones in and adding a circle of material in place of the tinted lens so the cap will tighten properly. If the clear lenses are left in without more material, they will rattle around, as the lenses cannot tighten enough to hold just those lenses firm. This works out if you plan on designing apertures or other designs for the eyes.The material of the goggles is a hard plastic (or perhaps rubber). It is not the most comfortable material to have against your face. I recommend wearing them loosely, and if you plan on actually having them over your eyes for an extended period of time, try to line the edges with a soft fabric or other more comfortable material. If you are wearing them and can afford to pay a bit more, I'd recommend finding goggles that have soft rubber eye-cups over these. Your face will appreciate it. If they are not going to be worn much over the eyes, these are excellent for decorating and strapping around a hat.Overall, this is a great, cheap costume accessory for someone looking to get some modifiable steampunk goggles.

This was exactly what we needed for a costume! Thank you for the fast shipping!
