Bolle Cobra (Goggles)

Eye protection is the only prerequisite for playing airsoft - it is absolutely essential and is the only base requirement to participate. No site will allow you to play unless you have some form of PPE (Personal Protection Equipment) for your eyes, whereas they will allow you to run around without a gun...although that just wouldn't be any fun. Good eye protection is the difference between having a good day, or having a very bad day. You can get goggles and glasses in different configurations, in various shapes and sizes and to varying degrees of protection. The most important thing is that you get something that fits your head snugly, offers sufficient protection and that you're comfortable. Beyond that it's simply about choosing lens type (solid lens or mesh). Some people prefer mesh eye protection due to the fact it cannot fog/mist up, whereas others prefer the solid lens because there is no visual obstruction and light passes through much easier.

The Cobra's from Bollé are a hybrid of goggles & glasses; they sit close to the face offering superior field of vision, whilst simultaneously offering a full seal. This gives you all of the benefits of goggles, whilst offering many of the advantages of shooting glasses. Of course fogging is more of an issue, as there is not as much ventalation in these as a traditional pair of shooting glasses. As such it is absolutely critical to use good anti-fog such as the specially designed Swiss Arms anti-fog spray manufactured by Bollé.
