Good gear.
I own Vortex, Nikon and Leupold optics and bought this pair for a vehicle we added to our fleet and I like them. We keep field glasses in every vehicle, boat and UTV we own along with a few in the house and outbuildings.

Great glass for little price
Very pleased with the quality of these given the excellent price on ExpertVoice. The edge clarity and chromatic aberration is on par with some of my much more expensive pairs.

Really great value for the quality
I bought these to use for wildlife watching, and so far they’ve been great. They’re a good bit less expensive than many binoculars and have a nice crisp clear image. The colors are particularly nice!

Amazing after 2 years
These have held up so much better compared to the competition. I’m now looking at other Athlon products.

Entry level bino, good price.
I’m not a bino expert, nor did I have another to compare. I did enjoy the clarity from these bino, and they were priced very competitively.

Great binos - especially for the price
I purchased these after owning other Athlon binoculars for a few years. I now have this particular model in both 8x42 and 10x42. I love how clear the optics are and the ability to pick out details that is affords. I appreciate how the focus knob is smooth and easy to turn.

Beautiful optics, the amount of light they gather makes them great for evening/low light viewing.

Great glass, horrible protection.
I’m no expert on binoculars but these are really clear and very comfortable to view through. I can say the dollar to quality ratio is on the side of quality. The lense covers are probably the worst covers I’ve ever received on optics. They will require modification to stay on. Hopefully Athlon covers lenses scratches or sends out new protective lense covers that actually fit.

Better than expected at price point.
Feels solidly built, excellent clarity and image stability. If the only drawback is its heavy weight, I’ll take the quality of the optics. I have more expensive Nikons that don’t match these.

Clear and Sharp for the value
The price for these binoculars was a solid value . These binoculars offer an excellent entry level choice for viewing objects from near and afar. The eye relieve adjustment found on other more costly binoculars works well for the new user. This item is best for the beginner for the quality and price .

Clearest Binos I've Ever Owned
I got this when Athlon was having a flash "extra percentage" off deal. As an outdoors guy and a former LEO, I always had middle of the road glass from the "cheaper" brands. I got these yesterday and immediately took them to a nearby lake. I was astonished at the quality of the glass. I have tried Steiner and Nikon from other people and these were equally as clear. Then on the way home I was able to glass 5 deer. Thusfar I am very happy with these and feel confident with the Lifetime Warranty. I think this won't be my only Athlon purchase.

Great pair of optics. Purchased as an additional pair for trips when I may have multiple people using them at the same time. High quality glass that creates a clear image for a great price point.
