Delta Seven has been using the ESS Profile Googles with Cortex Clip for about a year now. All in all, they are great googles. Great vision and low amounts of fogging. The Cortex Clip has met with mixed reviews. It does offer nice protection for your nose and from a bb entering the goggle through your nose area. Some users have found that with the clip removed, the chance of fogging goes down significantly enough to warrant the lack of safety. Other people have removed the clip for esthetic reasons. It really does make you look like a clown. Since airsoft is about 75% fashion shown, looking like a well geared up clown can be off-putting. I(Alpine) personally have removed my Cortex Clip and don’t want to put it back on. The goggles are amazing without it. I’ve all but converted from my mesh goggles to the ESS Profiles because they just work that well. The improved vision over mesh is worth the very small chance at fogging.
Overall the ESS Profile Goggles are a great piece of kit. If you’re willing to pay $200 for a gun, why compromise on eye protection? Most wounds will heal, but not losing an eye. Spend the cash up front and get good eye pro, you’ll be glad you did.
In the recent months our organization has grown bringing more and more people into our sport. It has been Delta Seven’s goal to bring like-minded players from around the Olympic Peninsula together. With that being said we still keep looking for new members that would like to experience true Mil-Sim airsoft. Delta Seven has no membership fees the only requirement is that your gear matches ours. If that is a problem we will go over on case-by-case bases. Remember our goal is not to discourage but to promote our sport.
