Overview of the ESS Influx FirePro-1977 FS | EE7018-24
The ESS Influx FirePro-1977 FS wildland goggle (EE7018-24) gives wildland firefighters clear, sealed eye protection on the fire line. ESS certifies it to the NFPA 1950-2025 wildland fire requirements, including a 350°F, 5-minute oven test.
Smoke, ash, and blowing grit find their way into weak goggles. Sweat and cold air fog the lens right when you need to read terrain. This NFPA wildland goggle solves both with one adjustable lens system.
Seal It or Vent It
-
Sealed mode keeps dust and debris out during dozer work and mop-up.
-
Vented mode moves air across the lens to clear fog on steep climbs.
Built for the Heat
ESS states every goggle component is heat and flame resistant, from the matte black frame to the OpFoam face padding. The full-length strap with two hook-and-loop tabs secures the goggle to your helmet brim.

Compatibility
-
Helmets: The full strap and two hook-and-loop tabs mount the goggle to a wildland helmet brim. ESS states its fire goggles work with all major fire helmets.
-
Prescription wearers: The ESS U-Rx insert carrier fits behind the primary lens. The same carrier also fits ESS Cross-Series and ICE eyeshields.
-
Lenses: The lens is interchangeable. The 2.8 mm ESS Influx Replacement Lenses are made for the tactical Influx, and ESS does not list them as NFPA certified. Confirm the NFPA rating with ESS before you swap lenses on a fire goggle.
-
Environments: Wildland fire lines, prescribed burns, dusty forestry and rescue scenes, and high-wind work.
-
Wildland only: This goggle is certified for wildland fire, not structural firefighting; ESS makes separate structural fire goggles. For tactical use without fire exposure, the ESS Influx Goggle EE7018-01 is the standard model.
-
Other ESS wildland options: Prefer a compact frame? Compare the ESS FirePro-1977 FS 740-0377 and the ESS Striketeam WF 740-0236.
Intended Users
Wildland firefighters and hotshot crews use this goggle to keep smoke, ash, and grit out of their eyes during line construction and mop-up. Engine crews and structure protection teams on wildland-urban interface fires use it on helmet-mounted duty. Forestry workers, prescribed burn crews, and search and rescue teams use it in dusty, windy country. Fire academies and volunteer departments also issue it to recruits who need NFPA wildland eye protection.
