Arena flakjak goggles

So i just received my paint ball certified goggles in the mail, and the look really nice. It comes nicely packaged in a case with a spare tinted lens. Here a link: http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthr...uid=0&t=601931
The one thing that I am worried about is that right at the bridge of the nose, it does not seal around you nose, so there is a small gap. Im worried that this might mean that i cannot use them in airsoft. Does anyone have any creative ideas to fill the little gap?

Right...

How bad of a gap is it? Is the strap properly secured?

I have that with all googles that are paintball approved or not. It's called not having a bridge on my nose. I haven't had any problems with being allowed the play because of it. What I do sometimes just to protect the rest of my face is to wear a shemagh tucked into the gap. Causes some really bad fogging at times but usually I just pull it down when I know I'm not going to get into a firefight anytime soon.

If you really need "Paintball approved" goggles, then why not go with "Paintball" goggles. I use a ripped apart JT Proshield Mask

http://www.jtusa.com/catalog/visionsystems/7913/

(Also named Spectra, 270 degrees view)
Looks like big ESSs, but not that bulky.
Available in black and OD!

I missed that part of the subject.
But I don't think they'll refuse a "legaly" certified protection
What about glueing some foam or soft material?
