Looking for some cheapish white frammed clear glasses. Anyone got some they can recommend? 20ish quid.

This kind of thing but clear lenses.

You'll get safety glasses for a lot less than £20. Went into Travis Perkins yesterday and they had some decent looking ones for a tenner..

I've used Bolle for years, not this type but similar. Both as safety glasses and for riding. Excellent for just over £5. You should be able to find white ones if you have a search through,

Uvex pheos – not too sure you can get pure white, most companies prefer a colour tbh.

We banned those Bolle shown above as we had quite a lot go or start to go at the nose piece (look for slight cracks), Bolles prescription safety specs are perfect however.

I don’t like using them on the bike, despite the antifog coating on the Uvex my superior sweat glands easily overcomes it as there is not a lot of ventilation (as there shouldn’t be in safety specs), YMMV.

I just bought some Bolle Contour (ESP) and tried them out last night (sunny then into dark woods) - impressed for £6 worth. I prefer the lense type that don't have frames around the lower rim. They do a clear lens. Work well on my face shape.
