suggestions for sunglasses and socks

[e3rdpower]

I really like my Tifosi Dea's with the photochromatic (night bright, I think) lenses. I ride before the butt crack of dawn on a regular basis, and I can use them when it's still dark out and they do darken nicely even in full south florida sun. My only complaint is that they do fog up if I get stopped at a light, but I'm afraid that is pretty much unavoidable.

Now this is a nice feature - this might be worth getting another pair of single vision cycling sunglasses. I know that Tifosi can handle my astigmatism prescription (I've already checked), and this would be nice - but it would still be single-vision.

How sensitive are the lenses? Would they adjust to the light differences found in the woods over the sunny open roads? I hope that question made sense...

If I could find all of this in a progressive wrap-around frame with shatter-proof lenses that cost less than one of my bikes...

Mine do. I have a pair with the Backcountry Orange lenses that I use for mountain biking. They take several seconds to adjust, but they're the best solution I've found to encountering mixed heavy shade and sunny fields/roads on the same ride.

Tifosi has several different photochromatic lenses with different darknesses....I recommend checking their webpage for options.

Agreed with Becky, I believe they would work. It does take several seconds to adjust though.
