If you are serious, I'm sorry nobody seems to agree.
If you are joking, you're pretty funny! |
The green things are cool. And by the way, the weirder you look on a bike, the better. That's what the whole bike gear business is about.
Personally, when I ride, I wear UVEX safety glasses that I buy at Super Wal-Mart optical shops for $7.95. They're so cheap that I buy a smoked pair and clear pair. That way, I swap entire glasses on the fly when I ride instead of stopping to swap lenses when the sun goes in or out. |
The Medusa head thing from Oakley has to be for some strange S&M scene that the designers at Oakley are into maybe? They have been doing too many drugs it would seem........
|
Oakley makes some wierd crap. If their "normal" glasses weren't so nice I'd say they were a crappy company.
|
I think Harley Bikers would buy that wierd Medusa "hat".

When you are climbing a 15 km mountain 10% road under the sun and your face is wet like somebody is watering your head and the sweat is in your eyes, and you can't get off this stuff 'couse the helmet is over them....you stop take off the helmet and the sunglasses and put them into.....?
your back-pocket?... good luck Udinì!!!! |
MAN IT LOOKS LIKE A BRA!!

When you go to the sunglass place of your choice, try a pair of polarized glasses. It will cut the glare dramatically and you will stand a better chance of not getting eystrain, cataracts, sun poisoning, etc.

Or ... if you don't want to worry about the problem of sunglass arms getting tangled with your helmet strap, you could go for a set of morpheus sunnies -
http://www.opsm.com.au/matrix_morph.html would hate to think how tight they have to be across the bridge of the nose - ouch ! |
Polarized wraparound Bolle's now on sale for $35 and $39 at Big 5 Sporting stores.

It may be worth bearing in mind that the more people who are laughing at you the more people who have seen you....
I think they're cool. They look like something Sandman might have worn. |
I just got a pair of these Crews Triwear metal frame "safety" glasses and I love them!! I got them off the 'net for less than TEN BUCKS!! :D
http://www.crewsinc.com/graphics/tri...ty_glasses.jpg I got a pair of the clear mirrored ones. They are great for riding just about any time. Think I'll get me another pair of the tinted ones to wear in real bright sunlight this summer. :) http://www.crewsinc.com/triwear-meta...y-glasses.html |

Did a search for em, and found other similarly priced glasses, like this for example:- http://www.safetyglassesusa.com/smitcod4plat1.html Smith and Wesson Code 4's for Eight dollars?? |
[non-PC] Do they come supplied with the blue frosty hard pipe hittin' negro? ;) [/non-PC] I think I wouldn't be able to carry those glasses quite as coolly as he does, somehow.....! |

I actually got a pair of those CODE 4's too! :D Don't Like EM!!! Lenses are WAY TOO BIG.....at least for me. Look really dorkie. Might be ok for a person with a fat head but just too big for me. :D I like the Crew's because they look really good and fit me very well also. IMO they look like much more expensive glasses. I got mine from here.... http://www.tasco-safety.com/safety-glasses.html I would highly recommend this guy. I didn't like the first ones I got from them so I sent them back and requested they exchange them for two different pair. They were going to be a little more expensive for the second set so I told them to call me or just charge the extra to my charge card. Well they just sent the second two pair and didn't even charge me any extra. Can't beat that. :) |

Am I reading this wrong? $5.75 for glasses AND lenses? Catch? |
LOL.......Nope that's the price. :D I got two pair of $7-9 specs shipped to me for less than 20 bucks.

In case your interested Belfast dude.....I asked about the other lenses available for the glasses in the pic above(Crews Triwear Metal) and just got a reply back. They told me both the "Fire" and the "Blue" lenses are actually gray tinted lenses with blue or red mirror finishes. I got one pair of the Smith & Wesson's the first time, that I thought were gonna be blue mirror lenses...... but they were actually TINTED BLUE!!! YUK!!! BAD!!!
I just this second ordered two more pair of the "Crews Triwear Metal"....HeHeHe. :) Got one pair of the "Fire" and one of the "Blue". Total(with shipping) was less than $22 :D I'm gonna have more freaking glasses than I know what to do with!! :beer: |

Bolle lens quality is great, like an eye bath every time you put 'em on. Good for driving, mountain sports etc. Style is personal, but I use the old Micro-Edge ones with a prescription insert, and the wrap is still good enough for quick downhills..... They're also size adjustable and come with interchangeable ear pieces.

I like my Rudy Projects, the price was a bit much but there is no way I'm wearing contacts. www.rudyrx.com
