Review: Tifosi Forza FC sunglasses

[KnottedYet]

These sunglasses are darn near perfect. I would be happy to wear them all the time.

I got the All Conditions red photochromatic lenses. Matte black frames.

When I put these on, my eyes sigh with relief. The red lenses "lighten up" enough that I can see just fine indoors, but the nasty blue tones of artificial lighting (the ones that trigger migraines for me) are cut right out. I have worn them at work, with great results.

Outdoors the lenses darken, but not in any dramatic or uncomfortable way. I don't even notice that they darken. I only notice that my pale sensitive eyeballs are always happy where-ever I am.

On the bike the Full Coverage (FC) lenses really do keep the goobers out of my eyes. They fit just perfectly along my freakishly large and prominent cheekbones. Much nicer on the bike than my Oakley Minutes. For some unknown reason the Forzas are also less prone to fogging up. The arms don't get in the way of my helmet straps like my Oakleys do, and my beloved glasses-mirror fits on the arms just fine.

I have a small head, but the Forza FC frames fit great. They aren't a "woman's" frame, so I was a little surprised at how well they fit. (I can even wear kids' frames, my head is so small!)

TE has Tifosi glasses, but not the ones I bought: http://www.teamestrogen.com/brands.asp?brandID=116

I ordered these glasses just based on your "review." I thought it was so well written I knew I had to have these glasses. I finally received them and they're great-my eyes are sighing with relief.

I just bought a pair too after reading this and doing some research. I bought the "Iron Night Light Fototec" style from REI. I can't wait until they arrive! I hope they fit my big head.
