Opinions on Cycling Sunglasses

I love my Rudy Projects. The ones for smaller faces are perfect. I have the lenses that change with condition and they are perfect even in the bright Florida sun. I often forget I am wearing them because they are so comfortable and never slip. If you plan on changing lenses, I would choose another brand. Rudy's don't seem to do well with often changes. They have a replacement plan for scratched lenses that I have used with satisfaction on many occasions. They are pricey. But I don't mind spending money on quality. They last for quite a while too. stacie

I too love my Rudy Project Sunglasses! I have the Ekynox SX Sunglasses with the inserts. They fit great, they look great, and I love them.

I just got some Serfas Miradors in white, and I think they're great. I like how the lense is one piece instead of two seperate lenses. It makes switching them out very easy. They come with rose, amber, orange, and clear options and retail for about $50.

The guys on my team call them my porn-star glasses

Another vote for Rudy Projects. Even if I wasn't thrilled with the style, the lens quality is amazing. No distortion and if it wasn't for the shading, you wouldn't know the lenses were there.

I wear contacts and early last year when I started riding a bit more than before, I'd make it to maybe mile four before my eyes were freely running with tears from the agricultural dust and such.

I broke down and got a pair of Oakleys, and they're just incredibly good at keeping dust out of my eyes. I rarely tear up on rides ever anymore, even though it's plough season. I also like that I have good shaded peripheral vision with them.

Mine have a single plastic lense with a rubber nose piece. They don't seem to slip and are remarkably comfortable!

Andrea - those are Hawt! wraar!

I'm wearing Oakley Minute w/ my prescription. They've worked well for me so far - except my eyelashes have a tendency to rub & smear the inside of the glasses.

Does anyone have any suggestions for sunglasses that come in small sizes and are reasonably priced (under $50)? I tried on some Ryders the other day that were supposedly made for smaller faces (I think one of the model names was Slim) and they were STILL a bit big. My problem is that I can never find any that fit well--the ones that are somewhat close to small enough are still a bit too wide and rest in an uncomfortable place on my ears. Does that mean I have to find kids' sizes, or what? If so, who makes them?

Thanks! I'm rather partial to them
