Wiley X Thoughts
I currently have a pair of the Wiley X XL-1's and am having a problem with them. I have called customer service and they were great to deal with. They stated they would give me credit for the pair I already have toward the purchase of another pair.
The problem I am having with the glasses is they will not stay on my extra large head. I wear between a 7 1/2 and 7 5/8 sized fitted hat and have to be very careful in the type of sunglasses I wear. After wearing my Wiley's for a couple hours they stretch out to the point they will not stay on my head. I have a pair of Oakley Big Square Wire glasses that I love, but I'm tired of having to replace the lenses because of them getting scratched and having to send them back to get replaced at $40 a pop. I know I'm not the only big headed, Wiley X wearing, motorcycle rider out there.
Do any of my big headed brethren have a recommendation of which Wiley X glasses to get that will retain their shape since I can't get my money back, but can get them replaced?

I wish my Wiley X's would stretch out. They are too narrow for my head and the eyeglass store (Dr's Office) I bought them from can't even get them stretched out. They are the toughest s.o.b.'s I've ever seen.
I've tried hot water, hot sand, I even put them in my truck window when it was over 100 degrees out but they always end up in the original position.
