Anyone have a pair of impact-rated safety glasses they really like? I've dealt with whatever I can find at the hardware store long enough, and would consider a "nicer" upgrade if it also reduced the amount of dust that gets in around the edges.
I need them to fit over glasses. I'd prefer earpieces to a headband, but I'll deal if it's effective and comfortable. Also needs to accommodate a respirator.
Do not recommend full-face shields, please.

@bryan They have a headband, but I really like my UVEX goggles. Room for glasses but sit high enough to wear an FFP mask (I have not combined with a bigger respirator).

@praxeology I like the look of these. What kind of hearing protection do you wear with that wide band? Something in-ear, or does an over-ear still work?

@bryan On the rare occasion it's super loud I have some Howard Leight earmuffs that go over the top. At some point you feel like Darth Vader but it works pretty well.
It can get very warm, but that's mostly from the mask and the muffs, not the goggles.

@bryan I wear Wiley X prescription glasses. They have a removable seal that goes around the eyes. https://m.glassesusa.com/black-large/wiley-x-brick/47-000127.html?referral=shoppingfeed&PLA=Premium&msclkid=050a7f53af4214f1bd6019719b8a0a6a&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=US%20-%20PLA%20-%20Eyeglasses%20-%20Premium%20-%20Mobile&utm_term=4580290578022994&utm_content=Eyeglasses%20-%20Premium
