I bet these work best when used with canned air.

I have a budget of 10 dollars for sunglasses normally. I was gifted a couple pairs of these last spring from a client. I’ve recently becoming a very avid mushroom hunter. I go with some seasoned mushroom guys who all use some unique pair of safety glasses to help them look. There is a lot of different shade of safety glasses. With that said the above glasses worked very well. They were a blast wearing blacktail deer hunting in the old growth. It just makes everything pop.

I gave both pairs to my mushroom mentors. They love them. I saw it as a good way to pay back so much knowledge given to me.

I wouldn’t buy them as I’ve mentioned they are outside my budget. But I also wouldn’t make a post just bagging on something I haven’t tried. To each their own.

If it gets anyone interested in mushrooms or fungi it’s a success in my book. 🤙

There's some truth to the right lens helping. I pick a lot of morels and my smith photochromatic copper lenses make the green vs brown a lot more contrasting.

Using for mushrooms is not why I posted this. Maybe they work great for that. Sheds though? Come on now. How often are people standing right over the top of a shed antler and can't spot it because it's too camouflaged within the foliage?

Out west I would say rarely. But a tines down whitetail shed in the trees with all those leaves? Very easily. And that’s where a lot of those bucks like to drop.

It’s ok to hate just to hate. Last I checked this is America 🤙
