There's a gazillion brands out there.

If it's approved by the govt it's usually safe. I keep tons of them in every vehicle.

Btw, I'm always amazed at how many lco don't wear them trimming.

Amazing...

I'm not familiar with X-Factor, but I wear safety shades religiously. I'm so used to wearing them that I can't deal with normal sunglasses for those 'off the clock' occasions, I just wear my Stihl safety shades everywhere. Several people have asked me wear I got those sunglasses Maybe I'll start a trend??

ya, fanitic myself anymore, got used to safty glasses early in life being machinist out of school long time ago ( like it was yesterday), don't see those type worn around much anymore. x-factors, never heard of them till yesterday, was at a sherwood williams waiting for a gl. of paint to be mixed and saw a rack of them (of all places), sure they had a sunglass version for the trend. btw got a pairs of stihls, dealer threw em in on a purchase earlier this yr. bright yellow frames, might be same.
