Default Oakley GasCan sunglasses

Anybody have these for riding? I am considering getting them but want to know how they work on a bike.

i do, they work pretty good at keeping the wind out. i hate goggles and these are a nice 1/2 way point between those and the flat front ones i normally wear which let way too much in.

You should try some on and see how they fit around the edges. That will give you a good idea of how much sun and wind blockage you will get.

I use Oakley half jackets. I love 'em. http://oakley.com/o/o2080d

Love the look. I currently wear Oakley Monster Dogs.

Waterman, do you find that the temples being so wide block your peripheral vision? I have some Spy glasses that are kind of wide at the temple and I'm not comfortable riding with them since they tend to block my view to the side. Any insights?

Looks like the earpieces might be pretty thick for sliding inside a helmet.

I've been wearingRandolph glassesfor several years and think they're great:

I have prescription filled Minutes. Very helmet-friendly earpieces. 3/4 helmet great wind protection, 1/2 helmet NO wind protection.

Good luck with your choice!

I wear Oakley half jackets and I'm real happy with them (I've got 3 pair of frames and several different lens)

I also wear Oakley Half Jackets, I wear contacts and they don't let my contacts dry out even on 500 mile days. I also like the interchangeable lenses.
