Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hobart 770096 Welding Oxy-Acetylene Goggle - 50mm Eye Cup
Customer Review: Worth it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm so glad I stumbled upon these goggles. Cheap, durable, and perfect for any need - whether you dress as an Industrial Goth or need them for a job/task.
Although they look plain, that can be easily fixed with some glue-on spikes and wires and some paint.
The only issue I had with them was how they rested on my head. After wearing them for a few hours (maybe about 3-4) they left marks on my head that hurt, even though I wore a somewhat thick headband underneath them.
I recommend to anyone who wears them as an accessory to take them of for a few minutes after wearing them for a certain period of time to prevent that.
Customer Review: Great goggles at a low price
Summary: 5 Stars
These are great goggles, the only two things I had problems with were fogging up (which happens with all goggles) and the center plastic tube connecting the two eye peices; the plastic sleeve over the metal bead string is somewhat thick. I removed it and put a piece of heat shrink tubing over it instead. If you don't have any defogging spray, you can put some toothpaste on the glass on the inside and buff it off to reduce fogging. Strange, but it works.
All in all great goggles, not extremely dark but definitely cuts down on the light significantly; I was using them for a costume.
Customer Review: Awesome post-apocalyptic goggles...
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought these goggles for Burning Man - they are perfect for costuming. You can see thru the dark lenses, or remove them and have clear lenses.
They are easy to adjust, however the nose strap is uncomfortable after long term use - it presses too hard against the bridge of the nose.
They are NOT completely dust free (for fellow Burners), but in light Playa breezes and light/medium wind, they are fine. I went with a better goggle for the storms and was happier with the eye protection.
For the price, and the look - I recommend for sure.
Customer Review: Good quality goggles
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought these from Amazon to use a part of a costume and was very pleased with them. Both the clear and dark green lenses can be easily swapped out. The dark lenses have writing on them but if turned inwards it is not visible. They are easily adjustable and fit my face well, but being hard plastic can get a little uncomfortable after wearing for a while.
I painted them, replaced the nose piece with a spring, replaced the strap with a leather one, and bolted some metal bits on the vents to give them a steampunk look.
Customer Review: Steampunk!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Great goggles! These are the perfect base for making some Steampunk goggles. Just spray paint them a brass tone and add some bits of metal or gears and there you go. I am relpacing the strap with brown leather and a brass buckle. FYI... the goggles come with dark plastic lens under a clear glass lens, the dark lens can be removed if desired leaving just the clear glass lens. I am going to remove the dark lenses and add light green tinted film to the inside of the clear lenses. I will post some pics when done.
