I use Julbo Spectron 4 lenses for mountaineering, and Spectron 3 for cycling. They have several models, currently I have two pairs of the "Dust" model, which I believe is an older model at this point. Perfect amount of coverage, without looking like those god-awful massive ski goggle/motocross glasses that seem to be the popular thing for cyclists nowadays. My only gripe with Julbo is the default setting is too large a nose bridge. They make certain models in a smaller version of the normal size, and I'll buy those when they are available. But I have to use rather thick silicone nose pads for a better fit. Other than that, the fit is perfect, wraps around my face perfectly, no sun coming in from the top, don't move around, don't have to keep pushing them up, don't hit my eyelashes, super lightweight. Can't say enough good things about them. I can wear my mountaineering glasses for 12+ hours without even noticing them.

Oh, I also can't stand glasses with a full frame. I prefer glasses with no frame around the bottom of the lens. Just seems to get in the way.
