I wear Smith and Wesson Magnums. At less than $10/pr, I don't care if I lose them or they get scratched up

With a large noggin, SPY Touring glasses work well. Just don't get anything polarized if you need to read LCD displays.

The Harley glasses I had were terrible. I threw them away because they had lenses that were permanently fogged. Bought some Miller Electric safety glasses with smoked lenses and they are the best riding glasses I have ever used. Not bad for $8.

I buy these. Cheap enough to get a new set every year. The old tinted ones either go to the wife or in the truck

I've been most impressed with KDs. Unbelievably cheap at $10, and hold tight while riding. Great bang for the buck.

Those things look like something only Guy Fieri would, or should, wear. Holy crap. Liberace would call those too gay.

I have tried bunches but my favorite are Oakley Wind Jacket, expensive but worth it in my opinion.

My favorites sun glasses are Maui Jims. Great lifetime warranty too. The polarization really cuts the sun intensity and glare. But, they do really funny things to the windshield.

I generally ride with WiilyX...but they don't filter nearly as much as the Maui Jims. We have very intense sun in Southern California. Was riding directly into a setting sun recently and was blinded. Managed to pull ove, and swap the WillyX with the Maui Jims and could see again.

Does Oakley still make Wind Jackets? Half Jackets are still available.
