Do any of you know who makes the Performance glasses? I ended up with the Performance Vegas today. After trying on Zeal, Oakleys and Rudy Projects, I was most impressed with the lens clarity on the Zeals and, believe it or not, the Performance glasses.

Oakleys were very good but inconsistent. I found that the different colors in the same model frame sometimes were inconsistent in their clarity. I really liked the half-jackets but couldn't justify spending $170 on the frames and three lenses. Or even $150 just for one lens! Crazy!

The Zeals I tried were the Rush and Zoony. Both were very clear but the fit wasn't right for me. Too bad, b/c they were pretty cool looking I really liked the rose lens in the silver frame! At $79, they're a great deal.

I wasn't really impressed with the Rudy's except for the Graals, but even those lenses weren't as clear as I was hoping for. Although, I was really, really impressed with how light the Jeckylls are!! It was like wearing a feather!

Alas, I decided on a whim to stop by Performance and see what brands they carried, hoping to try on some Brikos but none were there. I was pleasantly surprised by the clarity level in every pair of glasses I tried on. It wasn't hit or miss with the different models like the Oakleys. Plus, they came with 3 lenses and were only $22. I figure I won't stress out so much worrying about scratching or losing these and I probably find out more what I'll like and not like in glasses so, these a good experimental pair for me. They reminded me mostly of Zeals in the level of clarity in the lenses, that's why I was wondering if anyone knows who makes the Performance glasses.

Cheers,
