Description

The Overlord G2 (formerly Arc Light*) tactical glasses are built to support those who serve, from first responders to our country’s finest. Designed with military-grade Z87.1+ high-velocity ballistic protection, they pair advanced lens technology with adjustable nose pads for a secure, comfortable fit. A thoughtfully designed brow guard helps block overhead sunlight and reduce glare, keeping your vision clear and focused when it matters most. Vapor Shield™ anti-fog technology helps maintain clarity in humid or fog-prone environments, while modern styling ensures all-day wearability. Each pair includes a hard case and eyewear retainer, and the Overlord G2 is also available with our G-15 lens option to enhance visual clarity and contrast. Learn more about G-15 lenses at our blog here.

*During this naming transition, the eyewear and packaging you receive may still display the name “Arc Light” until Overlord G2–labeled products and packaging are ready to ship.

FAQs

What is Vapor Shield? 

Vapor Shield is the name of our anti-fog technology.

Are These Safety Rated? 

Yes. The Overlord G2 is rated to the military protective standard (MIL-PRF 32432-A), as well as ANSI’s Z87+ high-impact safety standard.

What is TPR?
Thermoplastic rubber (TPR) is a compound that becomes tacky when exposed to moisture. It's utilized in the Overlord G2's nosepiece to limit slipping and improve comfort.

What are G-15 Lenses?
The “G” in G-15 refers to a green-colored tint of the lens. The “15” refers to the visible light transmission (VLT) of the lens. Therefore, G-15 lenses are those that have a green tint and block 85% of visible light.

What Does the Overlord G2 Come With?
A hard case and eyewear retainers are included with your purchase of the Overlord G2.

Wasn't This Style Called "Arc Light?"
Yes. This style was previously known as Arc Light. We’ve updated the name as part of a broader naming transition, but the product itself, design, fit and protection, remains unchanged.

Features + Technology

Optional Polarized Lenses

Available polarized lenses cut down on excess glare, especially when driving or working around bright, reflective surfaces. Just look for polarized lenses in the product option to experience glare-free performance in an ANSI Z87+-rated frame style.

Adjustable Nosepiece

An adjustable nosepiece allows for a customizable fit. The result? A pair of safety-rated eyewear you’ll never want to be without. Plus, the soft thermoplastic rubber (TPR) material that our adjustable nosepieces feature provide anti-slip performance.

Thin Temple Technology

Our thin temples integrate more comfortably with helmets, hats or hearing protection. By reducing bulk from the cross-section of the temples, the frames slide comfortably under other personal protective equipment or headwear.

Best Performers In My Line-up

"I’m a firearms instructor who also served in the Marines — I’ve been through every imaginable set of range eyewear. I had the chance to wear my new Overlord G2 on the range this week for precision based optics pistol shooting…And I was blown away by a critical improvements over my small stack of other eyewear: 1. Clarity. The lens is the clearest I’ve ever used. 2. Field of View. The monopiece lens is a game-changer I didn’t expect as it keeps your field of view clear and open without a vertical nosepiece frame / bridge to break things up. 3. Comfort. The temple frame is very comfortable that didn’t create any pressure points after wearing hearing protection for extended periods. To sum things up, the Overlord G2s are a big leap forward in eyewear performance for shooting pros."

Poor quality

"Temples are very low quality, doubt these are used by our military."

— Harell C. (1/5)

Lack of quality

"I bought the overlord G2 G-15 vapor shield sun glasses. Originally bought them because of the look but figured for the price and the way they are advertised, they would be durable. First week wearing them an accidental drop and the lense scratched making them completely useless. Talked with customer service and they don’t have replacements or would allow a refund. Ridiculous that a fall from a mere 3ft would cause scratches that make the wear of the glasses unwanted. I’ll take a loss but will never shop from here again and I’ll make sure others I know don’t either."

— Manny (1/5)

The frame feels a bit

"The frame feels a bit flimsy and can poke the sides of your head a bit. Otherwise it is very comfortable and has held up well."

— Koby D. (4/5)

Great Range Glasses

"These fit great and so far, they work great for me!"

— Marc S. (5/5)

The Best Tactical glasses

"Love the design and fit of this pair of glasses. I got the Tan frame with the Photochromic lens and I really Love how it transitioned from clear to dark in less than a minute. I highly recommend these Overlord G2 💯%"

— Inoke Y. (5/5)

"Works great at the range! No more fogging up."

— Jachin (5/5)

The arms of the glasses

"The arms of the glasses are flimsy and I don't think they will last. The lenses seem to be pretty good and give a sharp field of vision. It would be nice to see the G10 or G15 lenses offered on other heavier frames. I have some concerns about their durability."

— Chris B. (3/5)

Solid glasses.

"Solid glasses use them all the time. Shooting, sitting, running, in class, just always. Comfy too."

— Jake T. (5/5)

"Love them"

— Jachin (5/5)
