Wiley X: Talon changeable eyewear system

While we're on the subject of cool sunglasses for summer, I would also highly recommend this one:

The Wiley X Talon is a changeable eyewear system, meaning that you can swap out the lens for a different color, and it is also compatible with the Rx lens carrier (sold separately). This is a great pair of shooters that EXCEEDS MILITARY’S STRINGENT MIL-PRF-31013 BALLISTIC STANDARD and MEETS ANSI Z87.1-2003 HIGH VELOCITY SAFETY STANDARD. The nose bridge and temples adjust for a good fit.

As always, shipping is FREE on this item, and it's available now in our store!

Gear Spotting: Gargoyles Classic

Stefan and I just watched this movie again (The Terminator, 1984):

An iconic movie for its time, and those iconic sunglasses that Arnold is wearing are none other than the Gargoyles Classic. Yes, they've been around that long, and they are still as cool as ever.

They also happen to be shatter-resistant ballistic defense lenses, making them great for shooting, cycling, law enforcement, military, and other applications. Summer is just about here, so be sure you have a great pair of shades like these.

The lenses come in black ice (shown), clear, blue, and grey, and they are available now in our store.

We also have the 85s - a slightly smaller version of the Classic (85% the size of the orginal), designed to fit smaller faces.

As always, we offer FREE shipping on eyewear. Would you like to know more? Please contact sales@darkthreads.com.
