Anyone tried Crivit shorts or Crivit Sunglasses? Guessing at that price the padding may not be of great quality?

Sunglasses are only £7!

I had some multiple lens glasses a few years back and they were pretty good. Still got a pair for night riding, but they don't last that long. Since then the designs have all been a bit ugly and chunky, so not bought any more.

I made the mistake of buying one of the portable washers 🙁  I can spit water more powerfully. It'll be going back.

The shorts are good.   Identical pads to one of the big brands

The shorts are terrible ime. Well the fit is. Pad way too big/firm and sizing just weird.

The gilet on the other hand has been brilliant.

Not strictly cycling gear but their lightweight inflatable camping bed/mat is brilliant.

I've been searching local stores to pick up a spare one

Would be interested to hear what Endura had to say about that.  If true, I'm sure they would argue the rest of the short is vastly superior.

I noticed yesterday that they've continued with the ugly, big chunky glasses design. Grim looking things!

I bought a couple of pairs of the glasses and they do everything I want for not very much. I bought two pairs as I've set them up with different lenses and will leave them that way. I broke the last ones I had by repeatedly changing lenses so it seemed the obvious thing to do.
