@@edlyonssportsvision9197 yes since my first post asking if they were still in business, I have ordered and received a set of the X Sight shooting glasses. In fact I shot with them today. I love the vermilion colored lenses.
liked and subscribed (again) look get for prescription lens wearers. can you review the lens holder and best place to get lens inserts from. are single vison best or would varifocal work ??
Will do! Varifocals in inserts aren’t pleasant to use - create too much distortion and peripheral aberration so single vision lenses are always the best. I always find this a really interesting topic. Some people want to buy high end, top quality shooting glasses to get the best vision, but then go and put the cheapest quality optical lenses in them. Makes zero sense! The prescription aspect is the part that does the visual correction after all. Occasionally I’ll have clients who’ll come to see me for a Sportsvision assessment as they’ve struggled with their glasses, and their optician has got the prescription absolutely nailed on…but the lenses they’re using are trash. Wrong optical centres, wrong curve, no coatings. So, go for the best quality lenses the provider of your choice offers and which your budget allows as skimping here won’t give a favourable outcome.
these are great! I've been using them for about 9 months and wear them over contacts. Rose diamond and xtreme yellow are my go-to picks to cover mid-bright and dusk-mid light conditions. I have deep purple and vermillion as well but I find that the RD suits me better. Definitely worth a try if you're looking at investing in some 'decent' shooting glasses.
Nice vídeo! How is the clarity quality and the insert practicality? Áre they better than Methow kit from ssp? What 3 colores would you advise? Thank you very much.
The insert is good unless you have a high prescription. The clarity comes down to the prescription lenses you use, some people go for very cheap rx lenses and the result is not good. Pay a little more for those and it will be fine Could you tell me what the Methow kit is and where I can learn about SSP? I’ve not heard of them
I've been wearing them for about 2 years now, AA class shooter, I refuse to pay Pilla money for lenses. I use the rose diamond ones 90% of the time, they are some of the best lenses I have ever worn.
Been shooting at Cross guns for almost 30 years, lovely place. Shame they've changed their name and prices since you filmed! Now called Lydiates! Great footage. Interesting glasses. How much do the prescription inserts cost? How do these glasses sit with a peaked cap on your head?
Ah! I didn’t know that. Great place to shoot. They sit well under a cap generally Inserts are only £40 but the quality of the lens is vital. £120 gets a great quality optical lens - anything less is inferior
Smooth video as normal, I'm guessing youv'e picked up the UK distribution for X Sight, being as you have your own range of quality sports eye wear, Good business sense to offer similar products that are at different price points. I have a pair of your glasses and wouldn't be without them, but I am curious at the possible benefits of the other colour lenses.
Liked shared and (still) subscribed. Good to see more choice for the everyday shooter and more seasoned alike. Looks a great shoot. Keep up the quality informative videos.
I can't use "wrap around" glasses because I fog them up so severely. However, this looks like a product that would rival Pilla at a fraction of the cost.
Looks like a good alternative to a Pilla set. I wonder how prone to fogging they are with the prescription inserts? I know when I was using over-the-glasses Z-87's with my prescriptions I had frequent fogging problems, which I attributed to stagnant air trapped between the lenses. I've since switched to shooting glasses in my standard progressive prescription, and they rarely fog.
Worth trying one on with a blank insert inside - fogging can be a pain with inserts when you’re warm and the atmosphere is cold. There are “anti-fog” wipes which can be fairly effective but don’t tackle it 100%
They have 5-6 pre-set shooting kits to cater for various disciplines/conditions, but also offer fully customisable sets with 2,3,4 and 5 lenses that you can taylor to your needs. They charge a bit more for the custom set options.
Been looking for a product like this for a while. Great to see the customisable arm heights! Always struggle with this issue wearing my everyday glasses
Is this a valid company, or have they gone out of business?
X sight are very much going and Cross Guns have rebranded to Lydiates I believe

Looking at the Web site lens inserts parameters I don't think my prescription will work as astigmatism rate higher (I think) 😟
@@martindaviesphoto could you send me your prescription please and I’ll have a look
As a prescription lens wearer, it’s great to see a good value product with this option. They certainly seem to be worth a good look!
Glad I found this review just as I was looking to updrade my shooting glasses. The comments from useres are also helpful, Many thanks folks.

I’ve been using these for around a year now. Even though they’re light they are robust. Would recommend to anyone.

Sounds good where do I get them??
How much in American money?
very good video, i us your glasses Ed think there very good dont think i will be changing any time soon.

I’ve been looking for a uk review of these glasses from your video I might be willing to give them a go
Glasses look great value. Also this is a fantastic welcoming ground.

Currently all distribution is through the great guys at XSight themselves I think - just nice to see a good product at a great price!
Great video as always, nice breakdown of the product practically and some real world testing. Liked, Subbed and shared Mr Lyons.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 💥💥

Absolutely worth a try!!
Am the same one of my eye seems very light sensitive so light brown be ideal for me so I can keep two eyes open ,,,,👍
Perfect!
Top product - I love the deep purple !
nice one 👋

Look good, im currently thinking of an upgrade but wincing at the cost of Pilla given my level of ability so will be sure to give these a look. 👍
Well worth a try! Under £200 for a frame and five lenses 🔥
How easy is it to swap lenses with the prescription inserts? very interested in these . Do X sight do the prescription inserts?
Dead easy - they supply the inserts and you can take them to your optician to add the lenses. I’d be happy to do that for you too of course!
Thanks for the video Ed.
Are the 5 lens pack set lens or can you select your lens from the range?
I think you can mix and match to suit 😎

Fantastic video and good to see your pushing another company’s vision wear Ed liked and shared more than once 🔥
Thank you - happy to promote good quality products, even if we don’t sell them!
Hi Ed it’s Roy again just looked at their website and what was the exact set you had on the video 👍
