Complete Guide To All NoCry Safety Glasses: How To Choose

• EyeArmor is the most versatile NoCry safety glasses family, with options ranging from simple everyday protection to more adjustable and specialized models.
• ImpactShield combines wide wraparound coverage with lens options made for bright outdoor environments and glare.
• SideArmor adds built-in side shields for extra peripheral protection, with options for clear, mirrored, and magnified lenses.
• OverSpecs is made to fit over prescription glasses, with different models and lenses for indoor, outdoor, and lower-visibility conditions.

Safety glasses should be easy to choose. But when you’re looking at different frames, fits, coverage levels, and lens options, it can be hard to tell which pair is actually right for the job.

Each NoCry safety glasses line is built around a different need. EyeArmor is the versatile, adjustable all-rounder. ImpactShield focuses on wide wraparound coverage and outdoor visibility. SideArmor gives you more protection around the sides. And OverSpecs is designed specifically for people who wear prescription glasses.

Once you know which frame suits you, you can look at the different lens variations within it.

EyeArmor is the broadest NoCry safety glasses family and a good place to start if you need reliable eye protection. The line ranges from lightweight everyday glasses to more adjustable models for people who spend long hours wearing eye protection.

EyeArmor keeps protection straightforward. Lightweight, ANSI Z87.1-rated wraparound safety glasses with impact-resistant polycarbonate lenses, anti-fog and scratch-resistant coating, and UV protection. Comfortable enough for all-day wear, with full coverage for DIY, workshops, warehouses, construction, yard work, and everyday jobs.

EyeArmor comes in three lens options: Clear for everyday work with maximum visibility, Tinted for bright outdoor conditions with reduced glare, and In/Out for changing environments where you move between indoor and outdoor spaces without needing to switch glasses.

EyeArmor+ brings ANSI Z87-rated protection with clear, anti-fog vision when the job gets sweaty, steamy, or chaotic. Lightweight, impact-resistant polycarbonate takes the hits. Adjustable arms, soft nose pad, and rubber tips keep the fit locked in, until they save your sight.

EyeArmor+ comes in the same three lens options as EyeArmor: Clear for long days inside and outside, Tinted for bright outdoor environments, with a darker lens that reduces sunlight and glare, and In/Out with a lighter tint for jobs that move between indoor and outdoor spaces, offering adjustable comfort without needing to switch glasses.

EyeArmor+ Tactical brings serious eye protection without dragging you down. Durable MIL-PRF 32432 ballistic and ANSI Z87+ wraparound lenses block dangers, debris, UV rays, fog, scratches, and bad decisions. 

Lightweight, vented, and adjustable for the range, hunt, field, or whatever mission’s next.

EyeArmor Pro doesn’t just meet the standard, it raises it. 

Impact-resistant polycarbonate, premium anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings, UV400 protection, a no-slip adjustable fit, and minimal frame contact with enhanced airflow keep your vision clear when the job gets sweaty, or straight-up brutal.

The Clear lens is the general-purpose option, designed for indoor and outside work, long shifts, and users who want a more adjustable, comfortable fit. Yellow is designed for low-light, overcast, and dim conditions where enhanced contrast and visibility matter more than reducing bright sunlight.

ImpactShield is built around a broader, sportier wraparound design that provides generous lens coverage. It started as a sunglasses line, especially well-suited to outdoor work, where sunlight and reflected glare can be just as distracting as the hazards around you. With now-clear and tinted lens options, the ImpactShield family offers dependable coverage whether you’re working indoors or outdoors.

ImpactShield Clear offers wide wraparound coverage with a clear lens for indoor and mixed environments, while ImpactShield Tinted reduces brightness for everyday outdoor work. ImpactShield Polarized helps cut harsh reflected glare from surfaces like pavement, metal, glass, and water, and ImpactShield Red Mirror features a mirrored effect on top of a tinted lens for particularly bright outdoor conditions.

SideArmor Clear provides clear, general-purpose protection with added peripheral coverage for indoor and industrial work. SideArmor Safety Readers combine eye protection with built-in magnification for detailed, close-up tasks, while SideArmor Red Mirror uses a darker mirrored lens to reduce brightness and glare for outdoor work.

OverSpecs is the NoCry frame designed specifically for people who already wear prescription glasses. Instead of trying to squeeze a normal pair of safety glasses over your everyday frames, OverSpecs gives your prescription eyewear enough room underneath while adding protective coverage around it. 

Wearing your glasses? No problem. OverSpecs fit over prescription eyewear while delivering ANSI Z87-rated protection. 

Wraparound polycarbonate lenses resist fog and scratches, while UV380 protection helps block harmful rays. Adjustable non-slip temples keep the fit secure and comfortable all day.

Built to handle flying debris, dust, splashes, and whatever else the job throws your way, these safety glasses are ANSI Z87.1 rated. The wraparound polycarbonate lenses with integrated side shields give you full-angle defense. Adjustable temples with soft, non-slip tips lock in all-day comfort, with no pinching or sliding. 

OverSpecs+ Clear is the everyday option for prescription-glasses wearers in normal-light environments. OverSpecs+ Tinted reduces bright sunlight for outdoor work while fitting over prescription glasses. OverSpecs+ Orange is designed to enhance contrast in hazy, flat, or lower-visibility conditions, making it the more specialized choice.

Keep your prescription glasses on. OverSpecs Pro slides right over them for strong, no-nonsense protection.

Lightweight, adjustable, ANSI Z87.1 and UV400 rated, with wraparound lenses and side shields for full coverage from every angle. Scratch- and fog-resistant lenses stay clear through tough work.

Start with the problem you need the glasses to solve. For versatile everyday protection, you can go with the EyeArmor line for more adjustability, comfort, or specialized options.

For wide wraparound coverage and strong outdoor lens choices, look at ImpactShield. If reflected glare is a major issue, the polarized model is likely to be the most relevant.

If additional protection around the sides of your eyes matters, choose SideArmor. The family also gives you dedicated options for close-up magnification and bright outdoor work.

And if you wear prescription glasses, consider the OverSpecs. It is designed around your existing eyewear rather than forcing two incompatible frames together.
