Whether you shoot regularly or just on occasion, having proper ear and eye protection is a must. Unfortunately, these two necessities can be easily misplaced or forgotten, forcing the cancellation of an enjoyable time outdoors. Even if you remember one, you may not remember the other. Browning has solved this dilemma with a new product that combines both sets of protection in a single unit.
Browning’s new Sound Shield shooting glasses have an added feature shooters will find very useful: Ear plugs stored on a retractable cord in the end of the ear pieces. Now, if you have your shooting glasses with you, you also have your hearing protection.
Sound Shield shooting glasses feature tall lenses with a frameless design to provide additional coverage and help eliminate visual distractions and blind spots. The glasses are available with either yellow or lightly tinted indoor/outdoor lenses and both exceed ANSI Z87.1 impact standards. A soft rubber standoff nosepiece reduces slipping and lens fogging.
The color accented rubberized temples help prevent slipping in hot, humid conditions. The end of each earpiece opens to release the corded retractable earplug. The earplugs have a NRR of
25 dB and are replaceable and washable.Sound Shield shooting glasses models include:
