I bought them for my Halloween costume but it didn't work out but I love the way the goggles look so I'm working on something else that I can do using Historical Emporium.

These goggles are comfortable and fit my eyeholes nicely. The rear strap and size adjusters are seriously flawed, cheap plastic clips do not hold elastic tight and are unusable without some repair. If you are slightly crafty you can figure out a solution, mine work fine with two safety pins holding elastic together. The metal is thin and light in a good way, although I am careful not to bend the rings when changing lenses. My custom lenses fit perfectly in these goggles, magnets stick to 'em!

Goggles for every occasion
I love these goggles. They have a nice authentic feel to them and I've made them a part of multiple costume ideas so far. A quibble with the band though, it seems to be geared toward smaller heads (which I do not have) and the adjustment clips on the side don't hold the strap very tightly, so I did have it fly off at one point. Not a huge deal, as I stuck a pin in to keep everything together and they remained comfortable, but I found it worth mentioning.
I mean, who doesn't want some goggles? These are great. They ruin your peripheral vision, but that's to be expected. The lenses are lightly darkened, but not in any way that helps you deal with the sun; these don't stand in for sunglasses.
They are a comforting aluminum that clinks metallically and and has some heft, while still being lightweight. The lenses are just a bit recessed past the edge of the frame (I'm not sure how they might unscrew; everything looks riveted together). Unless there's light shining in on your eyes, the lenses keep your eyes pretty shaded and hidden.
I found the strap to be a little small, and the straps have a tendency to slip out of their...strap holder thing. Maybe I just have a big head. But it was easy to set them so that they were comfortable on my face and forehead.
I want to wear them all the time.

A little pricey for what the are. cheaper on ebay, but I bought them last minute & I needed them fast. one good thing is your fast shipping. They worked out ok but the straps kept coming loose until I tied a knot in them.
I love these goggles got them for motorcycle riding. And these well work great

These are actual working cutting goggles meant for use in the lab or workshop, not the plastic stage props sold elsewhere!
Just blacken the inside with a marker to cut glare and you're ready to go.

Nice goggles, but the strap and the strap tighteners are notably chintzy. The goggles themselves are fantastic.
I searched around for goggles and while some were cheaper and not as decorative, I had the preference for the leather bridge and padded leather eyecups on this one. I made sure I got the clear replacement (plastic) lenses for the evening parties (don't forget this!). Perfect for my minion costume and future steampunk wear. I took one star off because the plastic clip that holds the adjustable elastic headstrap will easily slip off from all the constant tugging during wear. I wish there was a more secure way to keep this on. Losing that clip would be a party pooper.

Great Goggles Cheap Strap
The goggles are great looking and I love them...mostly. Get some better straps for these puppies (the ones that came with are flimsy and undependable) and they will be the perfect accent for any steampunk adventure.

These goggles look amazing and feel lighter than you might expect. I'm not sure that my husband should be using them as protective goggles while he does his real "mad science" but he does. Highly recommended.

These goggles are well padded and comfortable to wear, they seem well constructed too. The lenses are easily changed out, but secure when screwed down. The elastic band they came with could stand to be a little longer, it kept pulling out of the buckles. I replaced it with a strip of upholstery leather, now they stay on fine. All in all, I am pleased with them.
This Googles will change your view of the world.
My steam punk group, TEOS (Temporal Entities of Syracuse), had a booth at a local horror convention. We were acting as staff and promoting our group. I wore the Screw Ring Goggles [002684] and Mad Scientist Howie Lab Coat - Red [004617]. I got tons of compliments and many people asked to have their photo with me.
