The GATORZ Blastshield is a high-performance ballistic eyewear system designed for speed, adaptability, and precision. Built around a Single Point Floating Lens ICM attachment system, it allows fast lens swaps without compromising alignment or clarity.
That floating lens design is the difference. As the frame flexes to fit your head, the lens stays perfectly centered, maintaining optimal visual clarity and consistent optics no matter how the frame is adjusted. You get a custom fit without distortion, pressure points, or shifting sightlines.
With a wide wraparound lens, the Blastshield delivers full coverage and an expanded field of view. The center mount design reduces visual obstruction while improving stability during movement or impact.
Constructed from a precision CNC machined aluminum frame, it is lightweight, durable, and built to handle real use. The thin adjustable Ghost Temples integrate seamlessly with helmets and ear pro, keeping everything comfortable and locked in.
If you are searching for ballistic sunglasses, interchangeable tactical eyewear, ANSI Z87 rated eye protection, or GATORZ shooting glasses, the Blastshield is built to perform.

Important Information:
Photochromic lenses are temperature dependent; they look darkest in colder temperatures
Photochromic lenses use UV light from the sun to activate; they will not transition if restricted by car windshields with UV blockers, underneath a hat, or any other instance where direct sunlight is not present
VLT ranges from 85% (Clear) to 15% (Dark) across an approximate 60 second transition time.
