I have these right now. I like wearing polarized glasses...although they are a little odd to get used to at first, especially looking at certain types of glass. Mercedes and BMW windows usually look all psychedelic.

Yeah, which is exactly why I like greaseable. No doubt the sealed units can last, mine were at 190k and the u joints were actually fine it was the CV, but if you are clumsy at all putting them into the driveshaft when you replace them it's not hard to get some grim in them if a cap slipps off, at least with a greaseable you can push it out when you are done. Eitherway I think the strength difference is a horrible argument.
I think it's all/most auto glass that has that rainbow effect.......not just expensive imports.
the euro cars (mainly german) usually seem to have more of that metal coating on their glass. it makes using a Ezpass or some gps's a PITA or not usable at all. it also adds to the effect when using polarized shadesI think it's all/most auto glass that has that rainbow effect.......not just expensive imports.
Yea, most (newer) cars have it to some effect, but the imports seem to be the most noticeable. Thankfully, whatever causes it must not be in the windshields, otherwise, it would drive me crazy.I think it's all/most auto glass that has that rainbow effect.......not just expensive imports.
The weird dots on auto safety glass are the hardening pattern of the glass. It drives me crazy and I don't wear polarized glasses unless I am on the water.
I have this one pair of sunglasses that I really like. So I bought another pair and put them on the shelf.

I'm thinking of taking advantage of the strong yen and getting some new sunnies sent across the pond.
All purpose but good for riding, something like this

Anyway that half rimless style. Obviously Amazon are easiest but if anyone can recommend some good places I'll have a look. $50-$100 range

Haha, yeah I'll keep them in my pocket when I'm in London. Here I have slightly less to worry about, more likely to have my eyebrow pencil stolen.
Left my helmet on the moto last night (as I always have) and some asshat stole it with my good gloves inside. Should have taken the helmet in, but figured nobody would steal a 5 year old 2XL that smells of my sweaty head. Guess I was wrong, unless they just took it off the bike and tossed it somewhere.
My polarized Straight Jackets are scratched to sh1t, but don't really want to drop that kinda coin on another pair. I'd like to find an identical pair for cheap and use those for "safe" applications where they'll stay nice (mainly driving).
I've exclusively used Bolle nylon frames (wrap style) for the past um... 8 years or so. they are virtually indestructible and they are so light on your face that you can wear them all day w/o getting a headache.
Look at Campmor.com
They have some really good prices on a wide selection of "optics".
I fell in love with the Oakley Jawbone until I saw the price.
Might still get some, they are damn nice.

$200 for non-polarized is way overpriced IMO.I fell in love with the Oakley Jawbone until I saw the price.
