I carried the Wiley line in my store for a few years. I wear the SG-1's for long highway runs, they almost act like a small goggle and keep the wind completely out of your eye sockets. Nice thing is you can pop out the lenses in seconds for day/night riding. Most all Wiley X are Z87 rated and won't shatter if rocked with a stone.

I have the echos with RX and auto dark, work great. had them two years, they cleanup nice without scratches. word of caution, pick your frames with care as many do not have good peripheral vision.

I like them, but the sweat from my eyebrows has eaten into the polarized coating. They might last through this summer.

i had a pair of pt3's for years before i finally lost them. best shades i ever owned. took plenty of abuse without scratching or cracking. replaced with a set of pt-1s that are holding up just fine. ( couldnt find pt-3's anymore)

tried the bricks, wasnt a fan of the foam insert for wind, took away too much peripheral. were a little tight on my big head.

I have 2 pairs with the removable goggle inserts both pairs polarized very good and pretty affordable compared to a lot of polarized sun glasses out there that aren't polarized and the ones that are polarized can be very pricey. I like the 2 sets i own and my wife has a pair she loves as well.

After I got my Panoptyx broken in a wreck, I tried Wiley X, because everybody was ranting about them. They are well made, but they never fit my face right, so I stopped wearing them. I guess, if I'm not going to wear them, that I should pass them on to somebody else.
