Which safety glasses to wear all day?

[JamesNotJim]

So my company has just brought in a new rule. We have to wear safety specs all day while on site.
The safety specs we have been given, although a decent set, do not fit my face and constantly slip down the bridge of my nose.

Any recommendations for a set I should look into/buy. (Nice and light, with no garish frames)
Price isn't a huge issue but the type of job I do might mean dropping/knocking glasses off, so spending £100 on Oakley's might be a waste.

Bolle that we use in the power industry are great. Think they're around £30 a pair, but they're comfy to wear all day.

You shouldn't have to buy you'r own safety glasses James.

Go back to whoever is in charge of supplies and find the right pair of glasses what fits.Or ask for the money to buy new safety glasses.

Id guess he'd put them on expenses?

We have similar and buy our own and put the reciept in. Purely because the ones the company offer are crap so we are told to get our own.

These will be getting expensed.

Good posts above, PPE must be free of charge, and suitable, ie fit for purpose.

If they keep slipping down your nose, they are not fit purpose.

I am sure your firm know this.

I've got a pair of dewalt wrap around mirror safety specs for outdoor use, which came with a strap to tighten around the back of my head, so they can't fall off. I actually use them for cycling.

They do clear one's too.

I'd echo what others have already said- Bolle. A number of styles to choose from, they are light weight and comfortable (and some are very stylish too!)

Bolle Cobra HD. Gay name, but great. Anti fog, anti scratch and most importantly anti glare. Works wonders under fluorescent light / in front of a monitor.
