ditto on the Fitovers. goggles are great if you don't mind the gasket against your face. my girlfriend has used the fitovers for a couple of years now and raves about them.

Go to the Eye glass place at Wall Mart. Tell them you want to see the sunglasses that have the perscription insert. They are a little pair of specs that snap inbehind the sunglasses. The sun glasses are 50.00 and the perscription glasses are 50.00 $100.00 ya got a great set of perscription sun glasses that really work well for riding. I've been wearing mune for 4 years. I just keep them in the bar bag and slip them on every time I ride. Check it out

Airfoil "over-glasses" goggles. You can get them in mirrored finish and clear. $20 or so a pop.

Just Google the words Airfoil goggles.

ORIGINAL: harpoon

Hi all, I have seen quite alot of good posts on the types of sun glasses and goggles you like to wear but I have a friend that just got a new ride, he has no windshield yet and HAS to wear his prescription glasses. Can you recommend any goggles that he could get that would fit over his glasses?

Thanks so much

Harpoon
I have these and they are great.

I have "fitover" sunglasses I wear when I ride my Dyna that has a windshield but they don't work well at speed on my custom without a windshield.

I use army surplus wind/dust goggles. A lot of people say they look stupid. Who cares? I like them and can get them for less than $10.

I have the evaders .. I don't like them, they push my glasses into my face. With smaller glasses they maybe be good tho. Just keep in mind that what may seem good at the counter may not be so good an hour down the road.
