Tactical eyewear in one size. large.
Every frame we make is XL. Lighter than polymer, tougher than anything else on the range, and built for the guys every other brand sizes out. Prescription-ready ballistic lenses. Made in Europe. Assembled in the USA. Veteran-owned.
Spring steel frames.
Thin, flexible stainless that bends to your face and springs back every time. Nobody else in tactical eyewear builds with it.
Ballistic lenses, standard.
Z87+ polycarbonate on every frame, MIL-PRF-32432A on Ma Deuce. Clear, tinted, mirrored, or transitions. Prescription or plano. Anti-fog and scratch coatings included, not upsold.
Every frame is XL.
Wide lenses, wide bridges, long temples. If you're tired of frames that pinch, slide, or sit crooked, you're in the right place. All four models. No exceptions.
Four frames. Four jobs.
Complete systems from $279. Coatings included.
When your big head is not just your attitude.
Most tactical eyewear is built for a medium face. If you're past that, you've been squeezing into frames that dig in at the temples, slide down your nose, and sit crooked. We don't make a medium. Every METL Optix frame is XL. Wide lenses, wide bridge, long temples, and spring steel that flexes to your head instead of fighting it.

Shot the Caribbean Open in Puerto Rico last weekend. Used your glasses all weekend. Zero issues!
These were long days on the range in Puerto Rico. 88⁰ and humid AF. Frames are secure to my face. Unlike other brands, these have enough room behind the lenses. No pressure points, yet don't slip down. -

Dude! The whole package is quality. From the carry case, to the packaging, everything! The glasses are slim and lightweight and the lenses totally rock! Of course, awesome engraving!

Chad makes an excellent product with fantastic customer service. I have Darby Rx sunglasses, and I couldn’t be happier with them. Fit is perfect, the prescription is dead-on, and they are durable as hell! A+
