I have some like that but mine are just regular round dark glasses. The skull ones don't block the wind.

Since I wear prescription eyeglasses that's what I ride with, & add clip-on shades for bright sunny days. When I wear my contacts I use the PEP glasses/shades from the shop. They wrap kinda round the eye like a visor, are impact resistant, and work great! If I could get a set of them in my prescription, or script wrap-around (clears & tinted) like...say...worn by Swartzenegger in the "Terminator" that would be the (.)'s.

Bobsters are the best bang for the buck I wear low rider 2's and I just got my wife a new pair of ave's as well. They have very good customer service and help you when they can. They sell replacement lenses and pieces for most of there glasses too. Plus most of there glasses can be gotten with RX lenses.

Thanks, I'll check the selections & with my optometrist on getting a pair for day & night riding. The approved PEP RX frames offered at work were well...just fugly and very very spendy even with the company discount.

When Im wearing my half lid I got a pair of Wiley X Romer II that I really like. They have black, clear and yellow lenses that change out extreamly easy. Never had a tear in my eye even over 80mph. You can even get prescription lenses for them.

I wear some expensive but great shades - Maui Jim Kapaluas.

They sit close, you can get them with a prescription lenses, and the frame bends into a helmet nicely so they don't push in on your head. I also wear a full face though, so I can drop the shield to keep the wind out.

Nice variety indeed; wish I had seen this before, but still may order some. I recently found some fishing sunglasses with bi-focals at wally world for about $20 and bought one of the two pair on the rack with 2.5 mag. They actually work well and I can finally see the tach clearly. Of course you young bucks don't need these, but to an old fart they are a real help. Might even try these fishing for tying those fisherman's knots in mono line I can't otherwise see.
