    Eyewear Protection

    I'm looking for some inexpensive eyewear protection and not really sure what to get. I figured I might as well get some type of sunglasses since the sun is pretty blinding when I go out and ride. What would be a good inexpensive pair of sunglasses to get for riding? What type of eyewear do you guys use?

    Thanks in advance of any help.

    I normally use my Oakley sunglasses that serve "all purpose" for me. They are comfortable, keep accurate coloring, and keep junk out of my eyes.

    Any brand of decent sunglasses with good coverage will work. You could go first class with Oakleys, or other premium cycling glasses, but don't need to. If you ride where it's gritty or muddy, you might not want to be killing off expensive lenses so but a mid priced pair for riding and save the fancy stuff for after ride cool factor.

    The key to solving any problem is to understand and address the underlying cause.

    After comparing many brands and models I ordered these Tifosi Tyrants yesterday: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002D47J32
    I can't comment on the quality or anything because I haven't received them yet, but they are supposedly comparable to Oakleys, only less expensive.

    I've seen those Tifosi sunglasses before and thought they were pretty good. I've had Oakelys in the past and loved them but I'm not going to pay a lot for sunglasses that I'm just going to use when riding. I figured I'm not going to find anything better, bang for the buck wise, than those so I went ahead and just ordered some Tifosi Pearl White Logics.
