    Usually saftey frames have side shields, and if that aint good enough we use goggles and/or a mask

    there is no place for sporty in saftey, and if he starts wearing "off message" saftey eyewear, so will his employees. Check the local regulations, and fit to the letter

    I know Wiley X has a line of frames that are Z87 approved safety frames. They also carry goggles and other wrap frames. But I spoke to them about safety frames and I believe they said they have 8 that are Z87 approved. I haven't heard anything about them or their products, but I know they supply to the military and a couple of the frames have temples and straps that are interchangable. Looked like a pretty good assortment of wrap safetys since I haven't seen anyone else carry any when I was looking. Here is there contact info: https://www.wileyx.com .

    Like I said I have no knowledge of the quality or service and haven't dealt with them but let me know if you do as I'd like to know how the frames are!
