Cycling Glasses..why so expensive?

[SquareDaff]

My cheapo set deflected that wasp just as well as a more expensive set (I'd imagine anyway). Whatever glasses you use - when this happens they're worth every penny!

Mine are a free pair of prescription cycling glasses from Spec Savers, I like them.

Interesting - do you have a link to them? Specsavers never seem to have anything suitable

I use a cheap pair of wrap around clear lensed safety specs £3.50 ish from Cromwell tools for my early morning/ late night / winter rides stops flies, wasps, rain, road crap etc from getting in my eyes

Yep, I take a similar line. Bolle Contour safety specs at about £5 from loads of tool/safety outlets. They don't scratch easily and I don't go into mourning when I lose or break them. What's not to like....?

I got a pair from jd sports for 15 quid, three interchangeable lens. Not the best quality, but good fit and are going strong after three years still. Only use one set of lens , sort of a cross between sunglasses and plain.

The link I provided last night was from my mobile phone. I've changed it to a www link this morning and it seems to be working for me today

I use Bolle Silium safety glasses. They are metal framed, I have a smoked lens pair and a clear one. I believe that they have UV protection and they look pretty good IMHO.

I got mine from Decathlon. About £17 i think and they came with four lenses. Do me fine!
