Try www.ibeams.com A bit pricey but guaranteed to absolutely keep ALL the wind from your eyes. Interchangable lenses and Rx is also available. You wont regret spending the money. Aircraft aluminum frames. Top quality and made in the USA!

I have a pumpkin head and couldn’t find anything to fit right until recently. I found a pair of MAXX FOAM sunglasses at our local HD stealer for $20. Very nice and I bought a pair in with a smoked lens and another pair with a clear lens. http://www.maxxsunglasses.com/products/ridercollection.htm

Take a look at Arnettes as well if you are looking for something a bit different.

I use to sport the Oakleys but know I wear Spy Diablo matt black with polarized lenses. Gotta have the polarized lenses.

Just to throw this in the mix - I like my Smith Interchange glasses. I have a pretty large frame wrap-around pair that block the wind OK on the interstate (not like a foam pair would). The cool thing is I can change out the lenses from my polarized to clear at night. I think it really depends on what fits your face though.

To read and comprehend what you wrote I had to quote it. Otherwise I just can't take my eyes off your sig pic.....Daaaaaammmmnnn.

Anybody you know?

Dang forgot to post. I can't wear any glasses with foam, they fog up on me. Any that have a solid bridge piece seem to work well for me.

the cheap ones at circle k work for me. if i'm gonna pay $100 or more for sunglasses, they better have x ray vision..... in hd,

i was getting the 2 for $5 ones at the park and swap but the arms kept self cumbusting in the heat. my $9 ones seem to hold up though.
