At the moment I have the msa metal mesh visor and it's no use to man nor beast! After the first few times of using it it became misshapen and and the mesh lets though loads of saw dust whenever I'm looking up!

 

Most of the folk I work with have the plastic version which holds it's shape better the the mesh gaps still look a little large.

 

Do people have a favourite? How's the husqvarna one, is it worth twice the price?

I'm taking to wearing good quality safety specs under the visor because of this. I've never had a problem but since this new generation of ultra fine mesh improved visors i find more crap gets under or through.

I use a Protos so am very happy with mine...had I been using a regular lid I would have removed the visor in favour of a pair of "Bug Eyes" goggles.So I could look like a house fly....at the moment I look like a stormtrooper. But seriously have only heard great things about those goggles.

Cheers so far chaps. If like to avoid glasses if I can, not used to wearing them so find them a bit strange. I used to have the peltor visor and didn't have any probs but now have the msa set-up for the better defenders. Has anyone got the husqvarna one?

Will never wear a visor again. For the past 5 months ish I've been using some glasses I got from Barry at skyland. They are the best I've used and they have only just started to steam up but to be fair I've abused them and not looked after them at all. Which was intently done as I wanted to see how they faired under abuse. Well as you can see from the price on the link they are well worth investing in and if you care to look after them or not, I think they pay for themselves. :)

 

Only down fall I have with them is the winter light! Shame they don't come in a yellow light enhancing lens! :) other than that 9/10 for me.
