There are few pieces of field gear that go as underappreciated as a good set of tactical sunglasses. You can’t go hunting if you can’t see, and you can’t see if the sun is shining in your face like God’s own spotlight.
Of course, a good set of military glasses is useful for more than just hunting. Hiking, target shooting, boating and driving all require protection from both the sun and small flying objects.

Key Features
- Polycarbonate frame
- Polarized polycarbonate lenses
- Includes a travel case
XAegis have high-quality, polarized polycarbonate lenses. These lenses have a scratch-resistant coating and are a neutral smoke grey for as much color trueness as possible.
The frames on these glasses are sub-par at best. Polycarbonate is a good material for lenses because it doesn’t shatter – it cracks. It’s a bad material for frames because it doesn’t bend well – it cracks.
That said, this is a decent pair of inexpensive glasses. Provided you don’t expect them to take too much of a beating, they’ll last you a long time. They also come with a nylon travel case, to keep them safe on the road or in the air.
Pros
- Scratch-resistant
- Inexpensive
Cons
- Flimsy design

The Prolight Mikasuki have frames that look thin but can take a serious beating.
Key Features
- TR90 plastic frames
- Polycarbonate lenses

The Mikasuki is designed for golfing but are tough and durable enough for a variety of sporting applications. The lenses are scratch-resistant shatterproof polycarbonate, which is standard for most tactical sunglasses. The frame is molded from TR90 plastic, which is extremely flexible, and always returns to its original shape.
These glasses come in two colors: amber and flat grey. Both color lenses come with the same blue and white frames. Our only complaint about the Mikasuki is the nose supports, which are fairly large and get in the way.
Pros
- Tough, flexible frames
- Scratch-resistant
Cons
- Large nose support can get annoying
These military glasses are perfect for a day on the golf course, on the boat, or out in the woods.

Key Features

- Polycarbonate lenses
- Available in 17 colors
J+S Classic Aviator Sunglasses are well named. This is a pair of classic aviator sunglasses, complete with the thin, gold frame and the jet black lenses.
Because J+S is trying to reach as many people as possible, you can also get this affordable pair of glasses in 16 other color combinations, including green lenses in a silver frame, and mirrored sunburst lenses in a gold frame.
They may have a classic military look, but they’re not exactly ready to go into the field. The lenses are polycarbonate, true, but the frames are very flimsy. The “metallic alloy” doesn’t like to bend, and will quickly shear off even in a minor accident.
Pros
- Large lenses
- Inexpensive
Cons
- Flimsy design
These are huge, stylish aviators.
9. Oakley Gascan
Oakley Gascan

Key Features
- Injected nylon frame
- Polycarbonate lenses
- Available in 10 colors
Oakley Gascan Sunglasses have wide, injected nylon frames that are engineered to take abuse. The lenses themselves are wide and almost rectangular, with a flat profile. This gives them a wide field of view, without distorting objects that are right in front of you.
These lenses are coated with a scratch-resistant, polarized finish. However, the lenses themselves are not polarized. This isn’t really a significant complaint, but in an expensive, designer pair of sunglasses, you’d expect Oakley to use a polarized polycarbonate.
Gascan sunglasses are available in 10 color combinations, with lens options in amber, dark grey, and blue.
Pros
- Scratch-resistant, polarized coating
- Extremely durable frame
- Low distortion
Cons
- Expensive

- Ultralight ArmourFusion frames are built for maximum strength and durability
- Co-molded rubber nose pad and temple arms for a no-slip comfortable fit

Under Armour’s Igniters have a bold profile and a solid design.
Key Features
- Nylon and titanium frame
- Polarized polycarbonate lens
- Includes carrying bag
- Available in 3 colors
These look just as sharp as some of the designer glasses we’ve looked at. The frame is as tough as any you’ll find. It’s made from a nylon composite, Grilamid, which is molded on a titanium frame. This gives the frame both strength and flexibility.
The frame is also the Igniter’s weakness, though. After several months, the glossy finish starts to wear off the plastic, leaving you with a relatively dull replacement.
The Igniter’s lenses are of high quality. They’re relatively wide and reveal a clear, crisp image. They’re available in black with a satin frame, in grey with a glossy frame, and in brown with a glossy frame.
Pros
- Strong frame
- Clear, clean lenses
Cons
- Frame finish flakes off over time
These glasses have one of the toughest frames we’ve seen.

In other colors, it’s not. There are fifteen colors overall, including a couple of woodland camo options for the frame.

Pros

15. ESS Influx
ESS Influx
1 used from $79.99
Features
- Alloy Keychain.
- Key Ring Diameter: 3cm
- Perfect Addition to your Keys!
- Package included: 1x Car Key Holder
ESS Terrain Goggles are designed to provide your eyes with complete, 180-degree protection.
Key Features
- Ski-style single-piece goggles
- Polycarbonate lens
- Adjustable ventilation
While they do provide some UV protection, ESS Terrain Goggles aren’t technically sunglasses; they’re goggles. The single polycarbonate lens and nylon padding protect your eyes from all directions. There’s a small switch at the top of the frame that opens small vents in the goggles, which is important if you’re working up a sweat and don’t want to fog up the goggles.
Of course, goggles have their downsides compared to regular glasses. Most importantly, they limit your peripheral vision. They’re also more expensive than regular sunglasses.
That said, if you live in a colder climate, goggles are almost a necessity. If nothing else, they keep the wind out of your eyes when it’s bitter cold out.
Pros
- Complete, 180-degree protection
- Keeps the wind out of your eyes
Cons
- Limited peripheral vision
- Pricey
For cold weather protection, paintball, or ATV riding, this is a well-designed pair of shooting goggles.
Bottom Line
As you can tell more or less at a glance, there’s a lot of variety among the best tactical sunglasses. From heavy goggles to work glasses to stylish, durable glasses that would look right at home on a fashion runway, there’s a lot of selection out there. Which pair is right for you depends on who you are and what your lifestyle is.
When you’re making your purchase, ask yourself the same questions you’d ask yourself when buying an ordinary pair of sunglasses. What kind of UV protection do I need? What am I doing when I’m wearing these glasses? Will the high-end model do anything for me that the budget model won’t?
