In the military we were issued ESS Revolutions, which are 60 dollar glasses. They aren't the hottest looking glasses in the world but they were comfortable and offered a very large area of protection. They claimed they would stop 00 Buck and rimfire pills, so one slow day we tested them, and sure shit- after emptying a 6 round tube from a riot Mossberg 590, and a magazine from a Ruger 1022, the glasses had no cracks or any signs of failure or penetration. That instilled alot of confidence in me, and after that I didn't give a shit that they weren't as cool as oakleys. Now that I am a civilian and rarely need that kind of protection, I usually go with a pair of Rudy Projects.
