3M SecureFit Protective Eyewear, Gray Lens

3M SecureFit safety glasses with a gray lens give tree crews light, comfortable eye protection that cuts glare on bright days. The temples flex to fit a wide range of head sizes, so they stay put while you climb, chip or drag brush.

Why crews wear them

Sawdust, chips, twigs and chipper kickback are a constant on tree jobs. A pair of glasses you actually keep on all day protects you better than a face shield you flip up the moment it fogs.

The SecureFit temples apply gentle pressure that spreads around the head, so the glasses stay put when you look up into the canopy or bend over to feed the chipper. Gray lenses are for daylight work; switch to clear lenses in shade, early mornings and indoors.

3M SecureFit glasses are cheap enough to buy by the box, which makes it easy to outfit a whole crew and keep extras in the truck.

Fit, care and replacement

Good safety glasses sit close to the face without pressing on your temples under a helmet strap or earmuff cushion. Try them with your helmet and hearing protection on, because that is how you will wear them all day.

Keep a spare pair in the truck so a scratched or lost pair never means working without eye protection. Rinse grit off with water before wiping the lenses, store them in a case or soft bag, and replace them once scratches start to blur your view. Look for the ANSI Z87.1 marking on the frame and lens when you need rated safety eyewear. Browse more eye protection.
