Winter Cycling Glasses - On a Budget

[charliedid]

Hi all,

Any recommendations on decent, inexpensive (Less that $100) clear or photochromic glasses? I seem to be breaking or loosing things these days so looking for a value.

Don't need to have interchangeable lenses and I have a smaller to Med size face.

Are these just to junky to consider? http://www.nashbar.com/bikes/Product_10053_10052_172609_-1_202642_10000_202365

How about these? http://www.nashbar.com/bikes/ProductDisplay?storeId=10053&langId=-1&catalogId=10052&productId=514157&utm_source=Google_Product_Search&utm_medium=cse&utm_campaign=datafeed&CAWELAID=1011827652 Been years since I had Brikos and the reviews are so so. Also says for Larger faces but seem like a deal...

Thanks

Charlie

Are these just to junky to consider? http://www.nashbar.com/bikes/Produc...42_10000_202365 I've got a set. Like most inexpensive photochromatics, they don't darken much in sunlight. And they tend to fog up easily.

Darken is no big deal as I need them for Chicago cloudy skies. They fit okay given the price?

Yep, they fit nicely, and seem durable.

I'm pretty frugal, besides I don not have $75 + on a pair of glasses.
I'll buy 3 each of Clear & Yellow lens safety glasses with rubber ear & nose tips.
Each pair run about $7.50 or so each and as safety glasses they will do what they are suppose to incase a pebble hits my glasses which has happened.

One they get scratched up , I just toss them.

I have tried glasses from Nashbar and Performance and they were okay, but did not fit or look right on me.

Longs Cycles in MA. also has some nice glasses, affordable, they do the job.

Bottom line, You'll look fine, save your eyes & wallet and if lost just think of it as the cost of a retail tube.
