Note that you don't need or want those during totality. They would ruin the view. When the eclipse is total, it's perfectly safe to look directly at it, and even use binoculars. It's only the partial phases where there is any danger. When I went to Oregon for the 1979 total eclipse, an amazing thing happened. The hillside we found ourselves on had people all around with sunglasses on, looking away from the sun, so our eyes would be more adapted to the dark. I didn't see many people looking at the partial phases with "eclipse glasses". The interesting stuff as it nears totality isn't on the sun anyway, it's on the ground. You see the ripples on the ground, and if you have a view to the west you can see the shadow rushing toward you. Then when it entered totality, everyone took their sunglasses off and looked right at the sun. Many of us used binoculars. Truly an awesome sight. The only danger is that as soon as the sun peeks through the first valleys on the moon, you need to stop looking, no matter how tempting it may be.
