the peak usually ends up covering my whole face.
I only found out a couple of years ago that they mainly do it to keep rain of the sunnies.
I thought they just did it to keep their heads warm.
The other thang that puzzles me is why those massively thick white rim sunnies are so popular with roadies. I mean you can only see straight ahead, no periferal vision at all. Have you tried looking back with those thangs. All you get is RIM! you need to lift your head a foot to see forward passed the RIM!
They do look cool though

and just maybe it's worth the sponsorship $$$$$$$. But why would someone who aint gettin paid, wear 'em riding on the road? or more worser, racing? unless 'cool' rules.
