Sunglasses

I am in need of some shades.

Been looking about and hoping to score a good deal like most cyclists do, however, I am also curious in some recommendations having never, yes, never bought a decent pair of sunnies before. That's right, never! I am fairly certain that the only sunnies I have ever actually bought were a cheap pair of Euro sunnies off Warren at BikeNOW a few years back. Thanks Wocka!

I have lived off old hand me downs, ones bought by mum about ten years ago, or, for the last 2 years off cheap 'Foakleys" from Langkawi given to me by Ben King

Are there any sunnies that don't fog up too much when it gets wet? What about interchangeable lenses, does anyone actually swap out lenses all the time? (If I sound like an idiot with no idea, that's because I have no idea)

Ciao,

Jono

  1. Jono,

    I've been wearing the Oakley Livestrong Flak Jacket sunglasses for a couple of years now and I like them very much.

  2. Fffffffffffoakley http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.21768 They can't be any good for your eyes.... or maybe they're fine and the mega$ are full of it.

    Let us know what you end up with. I'm still on the hunt for 'the perfect' pair.

  4. I use some Specialized Adaptalite lenses in my glasses. There are still some on SALE here: http://www.avantiplus.com.au/products/SPEW0N813/title/Specialized_Arc-Small-Adaptalite-Glasses---Black Whilst I don't use this exact pair, the lenses are great for morning rides, as the lens changes with sunlight. Means morning/evening rides are fine with these. However, since you're a pro, and probably don't get out of bed till after 9am, you mightn't need these ;)
