Wednesday, January 11th, 2012Liquid Eyewear T Flex

Liquid’s new T Flex sunglasses double as goggles. Relying on a patent pending rubber hinge, you can open and close the temples as many times as you like and has been tested at ranges from 60 below zero and 275 F. Additionally, the T Flex can easily be converted to a goggle by clicking off the hinges and clicking on a goggle strap.

New Eyepro from Smith Optics
Friday, January 6th, 2012At SHOT Show 2012 Smith Optics Elite Division is officially unveiling a couple of new eyeshields in a line called Aegis which denotes the lens type. The Aegis Arc and Aegis Arc Compact share similar geometries but the Compact model is naturally a little smaller to accommodate smaller faces. One of the most exciting things about the Aegis line is the innovative PivLock Lens Interchange Technology that allows for fast lens exchange.
Additionally, the Aegis Echo is designed specifically for those wearing helmet and headset combinations. It features ultrathin moldable temples that hug close to the head but don’t make it feel like you’re being squeezed in a vice.
One major announcement is the frames are MultiCam. It seems odd, but Smith is the first company to offer production eyepro with MutliCam frames. This isn’t just about looks. While they’re going to do a better job of blending in to the wearer’s overall ensemble, Smith Optics delivers performance as well. They combine Tapered Lens Technology to make sure what you see is optically correct with full UV protection in addition to meeting US Standard MIL-PRF-31013, ANSI Z87.1-2003 and EN 166 standards.
Additionally, the Aegis Eyeshield is exclusive to Tactical Assault Gear at SHOT Show.
Smith Optics Elite Division will be in booth #7310 at SHOT Show.

Liquid Introduces ‘Brimstone’ Low IR Signature Eye Protection
Wednesday, December 28th, 2011
As signature management becomes more and more important, even the smallest of details need to be tended to. Liquid Icon, Inc realizes this and has developed a low infrared coating for protective eyewear that reduces IR signature under thermographic imaging. Liquid’s IR “Brimstone” Coating is an IR absorbing material equivalent to the resistive coating applied to military vehicles. It reduces IR reflection under illumination and is exclusively available on Liquid’s low profile Hellfire glasses/goggle model. The all encompassing Hellfire is ANSI Z87.1 – 2010 certified and utilizes a rapid transitioning photochromic ballistic lens installed into a 6061 billet alloy frame.
