BG Climbing Belay Glasses for Rock Climbing | Comfortable and Sturdy | Black

We'd always wanted to get some of these for belaying at Kendal climbing wall but previously they've been out of our price range for similar products. These are much more affordable and we're pleasantly surprised by the quality. They're perfect and the case is strong enough to get bashed about with our climbing gear. Very happy.

I was belaying my daughter on a crag at Neist Point last week, craning my neck in the usual uncomfortable way, completely forgetting I had a pair of new BG belaying glasses in my bag. I waited for her to reach a resting place, tightened up the grigri and found the glasses, put them on and was instantly amazed at the clear view 20m's up the crag. The image of my daughter was crystal clear, slightly enlarged, with no distortion at edges, no glare, and most importantly, there was NO NECK PAIN !!!! The glasses are unnoticeable on one's nose; in terms of weight they weigh less than sunglasses or reading glasses. It's possible to see what's happening around you as usual, on the ground and side to side. As a small criticism, other glasses have a hole half way along the glasses arms to fit the neck strap, enabling one to more easily put the glasses on whilst wearing a helmet. These BG ones don't, you slide a neck strap sleeve onto each end. The glasses are well made and don't look like they'll break if treated kindly. They appear to me to be exactly the same glasses as another well advertised brand costing about £35 or more. I bought these from Amazon US for £ 27.40 which included postage. A small saving but why not? If you have reservations about looking foolish wearing them, fear not, you will ! But you'll not have a sore neck. I noticed a few people wearing belay glasses at our more local crag, Moy Rock, and they were unconcerned and looked comfy in their lack of neck pain. I should have bought a pair ages ago.

do exactly what they say they are going to do, solidly made and good for the money

No more strained neck while belaying. These come in a handy protective case you can attach to your harness. There's also a little cloth to remove dirt and chalk. I've been using them for nearly a year and still going strong.

They are a really good price and are really easy to use and is a good fit for someone with a small head.

I didn't use these for rock climbing. My mum has osteoporosis and because of that she is curved downwards and can't lift her neck so these glasses alow her to see thing higher up ime so glad I've found them for her they are good quality and light too

Good quality for good price! Confortable to use and love the protective wallet glasses come with. Very thoughtful product!

They make belaying so much easier avoiding the stiff neck. Good visibility with magnifying effect. Strap and case included. Case has a small carabiner to clip onto your harness. Very light as well.
