What riding glasses are you using? Mostly interested in the cheaper disposable type as I tend to break/scratch/loose them. Had some bolle in the past but they did move about abit too much. Ta

£15 Endura Spectrum - pretty good if they fit your face.

Safety glasses nicked from work.
Cheap (obviosuly) and safe (by definition)Posted 1 year ago # -
B&Q have a great range, all under £13!!
especially like the look of these:

Cheapo ones from aldi, just as good if not better than my expensive tifosi ones.

organic355 - good call, the ones in the second link look really nice but look as though they'd mist up quickly, unless you do the old rub with candlewax trick, which I never have tbh.

Safety specs. Go to a building trade show and get about 3 pairs for £10.

Cheap ones from Decathlon. About a fiver I think. Do the job perfectly and they don't steam up which is my major concern.

I've got about 5 pairs of Aldi/Lidl sports glasses. All with multiple lenses, all about 4-5 quid. Mostly using the yellow lenses at the mo.
Don't really see the point spending more, the Rudy Projects I used to use had no advantage whatsoever (except a pretty logo on the arms, of course).Posted 1 year ago # -
I've got a few pairs but the bike specific ones i have are DHB ones from wiggle with a fixed lense. Another place to look is screw fix, got some nice Bolle ones from there with a fixed clear and a fixed tinted lense. Both very good fits and don't make you look a ****

Just go to ebay and type in safety glasses. All manner of Uvex and Bolle stuff there for well under a tenner.
I've had a few pairs of Bolle ones

Bolle BL10s, £3 a pop, and work as well as anything I've ever tried. They scratch a wee bit easily but frankly who cares, at this price? Also got a set of cheap Enduras with multiple lenses, which are handy to have but not actually as good as the Bolles!

Uvex for under a tenner. No fogging and look pretty good.

The cheap Bolles are fine but are really, really easy to scratch especially when cleaning them. I just don't bother anymore.

I've had mine over a year (using them everyday) and haven't scratched them. But then I'm quite careful with stuff.

I have a pair of decathlon ones, £15 I think, 4 lenses and 2nose pieces.
Never actualy worn them though as I hate glasses in general. Goggles and a full face I'm fine with but glasses just piss me off.

Another vote for bolle contours. Rubber nose pieces help them stay put.
Have a look at gear4fear on ebay for lots of safety spec options.

I've tried a few cheaper (free from work) specs, IME most cheaper models move around a fair bit, but I've currently got some Uvex from LBS, and I'm pleasantly surprised. Look good too.

I've been using for years the same Bolle glasses that Twin has suggested, and they've never moved at all - fitted far better than anything by Endura. But that's not to say they won't fit you.

Also, if your disabled like me with prescription glasses.
Consider overspecs. I use Elvex, they don't look to Roy Orbinson either.
