When you try on the Crossbow®, you'll discover it's unlike any other ballistic eyeshield. Experience the Tri-Tech Fit™ frame that achieves an amazing universal fit with max comfort and zero pressure points. Then notice the lenses. They won't fog. That's thanks to groundbreaking ClearZone™ FlowCoat technology, engineered to eliminate fog inside and prevent scratches outside.
As you stare down your objective through distortion-free ESSOPTICS™, you'll see just how optically precise vision can be. When you're ready to switch tints, the innovative DedBolt™ Lens Lock pivots up for easy release, then clamps down for rock solid retention under impact.
It's from ESS, so of course the Crossbow is compliant with U.S. Federal OSHA, ANSI Z87.1-2010, CE EN 166 and U.S. MIL-PRF-32432. Form, Fit, Function...Perfected. Get your hands on a Crossbow and see for yourself.
The ESS Crossbow™ is available in two retail configurations:
The Crossbow 2X™ U.S. Retail version features two complete eyeshields: one eyeshield with Clear lenses and one eyeshield with Smoke Gray lenses.
The Crossbow 3LS™ International Retail version features one Crossbow™ frame with three lenses: Clear, Smoke Gray and Hi-Def Yellow.
The APEL-Approved Crossbow™ is now available in the following Unit-Issue configuration:
The Crossbow® APEL Spectacle Kit features one Crossbow® frame with two lenses (Clear and Smoke Gray), an elastic retention strap, an anti-fog solution and a zippered MOLLE hard case.
Engage. Adapt. Excel.
As part of the ESS Cross-Series ™ eyeshield platform, all Crossbow® components are compatible and fully interchangeable with the ESS Crosshair™ and ESS Suppressor ™. For example, you can upgrade a Crosshair™ to premium Crossbow® anti-fog lenses--including ANSI-rated Polarized--or adapt for hearing protection use with the ultra-thin Suppressor™ frame.
Important APEL Note for U.S. Military Customers: Only Clear and Smoke Gray lenses and Black frames are approved for use in the U.S. Military.

Protection standards | EN 166 F + ANSI Z87 + |
Airsoft expose your eyes to BBs, so wearing standardized safety goggles is mandatory to ensure your safety.
Main standards :
EN 166:
Safety goggles meeting the EN166 standard are classified according to mechanical impact resistance (A, B, or F), optical quality, and protection against projections and debris. The "EN166", "ANSI," and "ISO 16321" impact tests are made with a projectile heavier than an airsoft BB. The equivalences presented below are conversions corresponding to a velocity and weight that correspond to an airsoft BB, the energy in joules remains the same.
ANSI Z87:
The eye protection standard in force in the United States is called ANSI Z87 (ANSI = American National Standards Institute). This standard does not certify safety eyewear alone in the European Union, but manufacturers often use the dual EN166 + ANSI label. The ANSI standard is classified based on impact protection (projectiles, fragments), penetration resistance, optical quality, heat resistance, chemical resistance, UV resistance, and so on. The "EN166", "ANSI," and "ISO 16321" impact tests are made with a projectile heavier than an airsoft BB. The equivalences presented below are conversions corresponding to a velocity and weight that correspond to an airsoft BB, the energy in joules remains the same.
ISO 16321:
The ISO 16321 series is gradually replacing the EN 166 and EN 170/172 standards. It provides international harmonization and better consideration for sports and leisure. It categorizes impact resistance, optical quality, markings, and mechanical testing. The "EN166", "ANSI," and "ISO 16321" impact tests are made with a projectile heavier than an airsoft BB. The equivalences presented below are conversions corresponding to a velocity and weight that correspond to an airsoft BB, the energy in joules remains the same.
What is the difference between EN 166 and ISO 16321 ?
EN 166 is the European standard for personal eye protection in force since 2001. It defines the general requirements and tests to ensure safety (impact, optical quality, etc.) in the European Union. It is the mandatory standard for CE marking. ISO 16321 is a more recent international standard (2019) that aims to eventually replace EN 166. It offers a more detailed classification of eye protection, with specific requirements for different uses (industry, sports, and leisure activities such as airsoft).
To sum up :
Choose suitable eye protection that can withstand an impact corresponding to the maximum joule power in your country's airsoft legislation.
