Default Best Riding Glasses ~ Your opinion ~

Hey guys, Ive only been riding for a few months, Ive been thru several pair of glasses. My latest pair is the yellow 3m Cycle glasses. The dont fit my face as well as they should but at first they were great. Wind gets behind them and when I take them off my sight is blurry. They have a small scratch they may be causing my eyes to un focus

I think im gonna go back to my clear night time and Dark daytime safety Glasses made by nemisis

What are you guys wearing? Your opinion matters. I really need to get my eyes comfortable

Well seeing that Im a cheap skate I just use some cheap safety glasses I got from the hardwear store they fit good and keep the wind out of my eyes during the day its the dark pair and at night its the clear ones. I just cant bring my self to go and spend all kinds of money on the high end glasses when the cheap ones do just as good plus then you can spend more on the bike.

Cool cool, sounds like me. I paid $7 (on sale) for the 3m motorcycle glasses. I used my safety glasses i get free from work but some air gets behind them. I think the 3m riding glasses are worse tho. The yellow makes everything stand out which is a huge plus.

Thanks and I hope I can find a cheap solution. For now im gonna go back to the safety glasses

KD's are all I wear, day or night, rain or shine. They are cheap and very affective, and at times I think acually magical.

I use clear and smoke Starlite safety glasses. Never fog up and give great wind and object protection. Bonus is you can get them for $2 a pair.

Might have to pick me up a pair of those KD's though. Nice old school look.

I used to wear safety glasses, and then I won a set of goggles with sealed padding in them, big difference in the amount of wind your eyes get. I can run 100 all day with the goggles on. they're cheapies though, not sure what brand.
