Amber tinted safety eyewear

Fall evenings tend to get darker quicker the more we head towards winter – especially after 5:00 PM in the Midwest. Amber-tinted safety eyewear lenses enhance visual contrast allowing you to see better in lower light situations. Each of the following options feature Amber tinted lenses and dual industry-leading anti-fog and scratch-resistant coatings, but the fit and frame range from each product to another.

MX300

Get the lightweight yet stable feel with the slip-free, MX300 safety eyewear.

MX300 eyewear with amber lens

Complete with full coverage, wraparound lens design, and a seamless soft brow guard, your eyes will be protected from any flying leaves, dust, or dirt. Going to be wearing them all day? No worries. The smooth nose piece hugs the bridge of your nose just right to ensure you have a secure, zero-pressure experience.

 

MX250

The MX250 protects your eyes in disguise with its slimmer, modern design that does away with the chunky, overbearing look of regular safety glasses. With the panoramic lens design, you can expect extended lateral vision that’s great for getting a wider range of vision and soft-grip side arms that give you a comfortable, secure fit.

 

 

 

 

MX200
