I'm looking for recommendations for a pair of clear glasses for night riding. I'm a sweaty sort of rider and the ones I've tried fog up too readily, so I often end up riding without glasses. Not a great idea as I also value my eyes. My head/face is on the largish size. I have various specialized glasses that suit me fine for daylight riding.
Suggestions welcomed

Go Down your local b&q, you'll find some eye protection there that just the same as clear bike glasses for a fraction of the cost

Bolle Spiders. Fiver on eBay, look nice and anti-mist.

Endura cheap ones are very good, cost about a tenner. B&Q glasses are not all the same, they are often less comfortable and may not be UV proof.

scruff - he's after clear glasses for night riding, I imagine UV-protection is not high on the list of requirements!

Second the Bolle Spiders.

Whatever you do, don't buy any Bolas Spiders, they're not very comfortable 🙂

Thanks for the suggestions. A certain theme emerged. Just for good measure I've splashed out on a pair of Spiders and Siliums and some Bob heath for good measure.

I would suggest that the majority of glasses will steam up, it's not about the glasses it's about our climate and whetehr you have tired any fog spray stuff. I find it doesn't work and I just suffer with steamy glasses, see riding in Boulder, CO Was awesome as their climate is so dry!

Siliums

Careful with those - I have a pair for work, and on the basis that they (well, mine anyway) have metal frames, there's no way I'd wear 'em riding.

I bought Contours for riding instead.
