Hey! Do you know what brand the goggles that Horace Grant wore?? Im having a hard time finding them. Please let me know!

Several NBA players, including James Worthy of the Lakers, Portland`s Buck Williams and Houston`s Hakeem Olajuwon, wear goggles because of injury, and Detroit`s John Salley, like Grant, wears them to correct vision problems. Grant had gotten them knocked off a few times during the season by rough players, such as Utah`s Karl Malone, but it wasn`t until his three wrestling matches with Oakley that Grant decided to stop wearing them.
