Essentials™. The basics. The indispensable, day-to-day items we can’t live without. We all know what those are. And when it comes to binoculars, it’s no different. Some of our best-selling models fall in this category. Their affordable price makes them a no-brainer when it comes to adding a pair of binos to your household, pocket or suitcase.
The perfect balance of optical performance and quality construction means you get everything you need and nothing you don’t. The handsome, rubber-armored housing not only absorbs shock and protects them from bumps and bruises, it adds in a weather resistance factor should it decide to rain — or snow — at the big event. With several models to choose from, the Essentials are ideal for kids, families, casual sportsmen, golfers and travelers.
