GATORZ Eyewear

GATORZ launched in 1989 in San Diego, California with the intent to build American made rugged eyewear from billet aluminum. Designed and created by craftsmen, our mission is to provide the most innovative and durable eyewear for those who push the limits every day.

Conventional, plastic-framed eyewear could deform when met with the high wind force of skydiving and motorcycle riding. GATORZ saw an unfulfilled need and developed a solution. GATORZ strength and no-slip fit soon made its way from skydiving and motorcycle sports into the US military's special operations community with the original Magnum frame as a favorite dependable solution for functional ballistic eye protection.

On duty, GATORZ have been appreciated for durability and adjustable fit. GATORZ use of aluminum allows for a thin, adjustable temple without compromising strength. These unique features make comfort and compatibility with other gear more superior than other eye protection. The facial-wrap design also prove superior protection against wind, dust and debris that typically works its way around non-custom-fit eyewear. For more than thirty years, GATORZ has been the professional's choice when eye protection and visual clarity is essential. Backed by the longevity of crafting durable eyewear, today GATORZ produces a wide variety of frame shapes and lens types.

GATORZ is the proud manufacturer of American-made eyewear for those who build and protect our nation. Each pair is hand assembled in Yuma, Arizona, forged by CNC machining aluminum and designed to offer elite-level ballistic protection for those who push the limits every day.
