ESS® Crossbow® Hunting 2LS are professional ballistic protective glasses with two interchangeable lenses designed for shooters, hunters, military personnel, athletes and users who require reliable eye protection during work, training or shooting.

The model is part of the modular ESS® Cross-Series™ platform and combines the proprietary Crossbow® Tri-Tech Fit™ frame, high-precision ESSOPTICS™, ClearZone™ FlowCoat technology and the DedBolt™ Lens Lock quick-change lens system. The Hunting 2LS kit includes two lenses — high-contrast Hi-Def Bronze and tinted Smoke Gray — allowing the eyewear to be adapted to different lighting conditions.

Hi-Def Bronze and Smoke Gray — Two Lenses for Different Conditions

The Crossbow® Hunting 2LS kit includes two interchangeable ballistic lenses:

• Hi-Def Bronze — 62% VLT: a high-contrast lens designed to enhance visual perception and contrast;
• Smoke Gray — 15% VLT: a tinted lens designed for bright daylight and sunny conditions.

This combination is particularly practical for shooting and hunting, where lighting conditions may change depending on the weather, time of day and surrounding environment.

2.4 mm Ballistic Polycarbonate Lenses

The lenses are made from 2.4 mm impact-resistant polycarbonate. They are designed to protect the eyes against mechanical hazards in accordance with the ballistic and professional protection standards specified for this model.

The semi-rimless design provides a wide field of view and minimizes obstruction in the peripheral vision area.

Tri-Tech Fit™ — Secure Fit Without Excessive Pressure

The Crossbow® Tri-Tech Fit™ frame is designed to provide a stable and comfortable fit. The temple geometry helps distribute pressure more evenly and minimize uncomfortable pressure points.

The flexible construction helps keep the eyewear securely in place during active movement, shooting and other tasks.

Thin Temples for Improved Equipment Compatibility

The temple design is optimized for use with shooting equipment. Their slim profile helps reduce pressure beneath the ear cups of full-size hearing protection and improves compatibility with communication systems.

Non-slip elements on the inside of the temples help stabilize the eyewear during movement.

ClearZone™ FlowCoat — Anti-Fog and Scratch Protection

The lenses feature ClearZone™ FlowCoat technology. The inner side of the coating is designed to help reduce fogging, while the outer side improves resistance to scratches.

This helps maintain a clear field of view during physical activity, temperature changes, use with protective equipment and extended periods of wear.

ESSOPTICS™ — Clear Vision Without Unwanted Distortion

The lenses are manufactured using ESSOPTICS™ technology, which is designed to provide high optical precision and minimize unwanted image distortion.

This is particularly important during shooting and hunting, where accurate perception of the shape, position and distance of objects directly affects comfort and performance.

DedBolt™ Lens Lock — Quick Lens Replacement

The DedBolt™ Lens Lock system provides secure lens retention in the frame while allowing the lens to be quickly replaced when lighting conditions change.

The user can switch from the high-contrast Hi-Def Bronze lens to the tinted Smoke Gray lens without the need to carry a separate pair of protective glasses.

100% UVA and UVB Protection

ESS® Crossbow® lenses provide 100% protection against UVA and UVB radiation. This is important during extended outdoor use, including shooting, hunting, training and professional activities.

Cross-Series™ — ESS® Modular Platform

Crossbow® is part of the ESS® Cross-Series™. The platform is designed around compatibility and interchangeability of appropriate lenses and frames between Crossbow®, Crosshair™ and Suppressor™ models.

This allows the eyewear system to be adapted to a specific task. For example, Crossbow® lenses can be used with a compatible ultra-thin Suppressor™ frame for more comfortable wear with full-size hearing protection.

Replaceable Nosepiece

The design features a replaceable composite and silicone nosepiece. It provides comfortable contact with the bridge of the nose and can be replaced as a separate component of the system.

Prescription Vision Correction Compatibility

For users who require vision correction, the Crossbow® platform supports compatible ESS® prescription inserts.

The following inserts can be purchased separately:

• ESS® U-Rx Insert;
• ESS® Vice Rx Insert;
• ESS® P-2B™ Rx Insert.

Compatibility of a specific insert and any components required for prescription lenses should be checked before purchase.
