from 205 reviewsGreetings from Thailand!
Our BEST investment ever in eye protection is the Kitchen Blockers. More confidence and less fear at the kitchen with Kitchen Blockers.
Our motto: 'No Kitchen Blockers= NO PLAY"
I received my first pair of Kitchen Blockers this week. I was a little apprehensive when ordering since in a few pictures the glasses appeared bulky and oversized. Boy, was I wrong! I have a smaller face and the Kitchen Blockers are light, fit snugly to the face, and way less intrusive than they appear in the photos.
Prior to receiving my pair of Kitchen Blockers several fellow Pickleballers commented how they wished there was a lensless option for protective eyewear. Well, the future is here, and the Kitchen Blockers are a hit on the courts! I play 5-6 days a week, mostly in the evening as the sun goes down, creating its own issues with low sun light combined with overhead fluorescent lights. I also occasionally play indoors with bright overhead lighting. I’ve tried both clear and tinted protective wear in the past, and it didn’t take long for scratches to form and lens clarity to deteriorate to the point of glare and improper vision for those speed ups at the net.
I don’t recommend trying to get hit in the face on purpose, but ball rebound off yours or your partner’s paddle does happen. I feel better now that I’ll be protective from those errant shots when wearing my Kitchen Blockers!
I knew there had to be a no lens option for eye protection. After seeing my friend’s lens separate from his frame and cut under his eye causing him to get stitches , I was on the search for something different. Bought the clear and wore them right away. Love the comfort combined with protection. Thank you!
I’ll be honest—I hesitated to buy these because of the price. But after going through two cheaper pairs that fogged up and distorted, I finally decided to invest in the Kitchen Blockers. Best decision ever. I use them all the time (PB addiction is real 😅) and would 100% recommend them to anyone.
On top of that, when I had a small issue, their customer service was outstanding. Highly recommend both the product and the company.
I didn’t have to adjust a thing. Came quickly and played the whole hour and a half without taking them off …they were so comfortable. My eyes were still a bit hot but I had perfect vision! Thanks 🙏.
I came upon the Kitchen Blockers as I wanted an option to stay safe playing pickleball while also not being hindered by fogging or smudges that came with protection that came with lenses. The Kitchen Blockers have performed great. There is no fogging or smudging as there is no lens to worry about. I have had several hits from balls to the frame with no damage to the Blockers or me. They provide a clear view and are very light and comfortable to wear on long sessions.
No worries at all about being hit by the ball or a partner’s paddle. They are lightweight with a good visual field.
I've purchased Kitchen Blockers after searching for lens-less eye protection for playing pickleball.
The glasses with lenses are just to hot and uncomfortable for me to use! These are comfortable and provide the protection I need without the heat or fogginess of lenses. The price is prohibitive, but...the only thing around that are lensless.
Playing with my Kitchen Blockers gives me the confidence to play at the NVZ against power players. Having LASIK lenses in my eyes has always added a slight worry, but now I’m all in with my Kitchen Blockers. And the best thing is that I don’t know I have them on. No glass means, no fogging. Not only can the ball not hit your eyes, it also cannot smash your cheek or eye socket. Just love them!
I had been looking for eye protection. I can wear these during all play day and night. Luckily they have only been tested during live play once and they worked perfectly.
Purchased these a few weeks ago. They give me added confidence at the pickle line since I’ve been hit near my eye several times. I have a small face and have a difficult time finding frames that fit me, but these fit comfortably right out of the box without having to make any adjustments! ( I do use the back strap too). I purchased the clear pair, and they don’t limit my field of vision at all. The case that comes with them clips right onto my bag so I never forget to take them to the court.
Oh my goodness THESE GLASSES ARE AMAZING in every way!!! I wear contacts Bi- focals) and wasn’t sure if glasses would work cause I have to turn my head to see the left or right.
Honestly I’m overwhelmed how light they are, how well I see and how they function. I got hit
And didn’t feel the impact at all!!
TOTALLY TOTALLY WORTH every dollar!!!
Kitchen Blockers are lightweight, comfortable, and stay clear even during long sessions in humid weather. They fit well indoors and outdoors, with or without a hat, and provide great peace of mind during fast kitchen exchanges. A well-designed product that truly makes the game safer and more enjoyable!
After having two different brands that fogged up and reflected light, I bought the Kitchenblockers and I no longer have those problems. They are comfortable, lightweight, and very stylish. Definitely a great purchase—when I play, I feel protected and comfortable. If you’re thinking about getting a pair, do it as soon as possible. You won’t regret it. Definitely 5 stars!
Have always worn eye protection because my profession requires excellent vision. However, have had the usual issues with sweat, fogging, and occasional light refraction that can distort images. First time out did feel a bit naked without lenses. However after about a couple games forgot they were there but mentally reassured I was protected. Adjustable, comfortable, and no visual impairment. Feels like a win-win to me.

DO I REALLY NEED EYE PROTECTION?
