The Worst luck with sunglasses
Does anyone have sunglasses or goggles that they would recommend? It seems like Im buying a new 25.00 pair every few months. Anyone come across glasses that dont fog up?
I think my biggest problem is that I wear a helmet (state law) so the glasses inevitable bend inside the helmet and eventually crack.

Check these out. Not very expensive, lots of options, and very versatile. I wear them with a 1/2 helmet the only fogging I get is when it is cold and I first put them on. Goes away within a 1/4 mile down the road. Highly recommend.

I bought two pairs of Freedom 24 glasses with photovhromic lenses. Has removable foam and ear pieces can be replaced with included elastic strap. I really like them.

I bought some Wiley X XL-1 glasses with the foam and the changeable lenses when they were on sale at Sportsman's Guide for $20 over a year ago. They work great except I need a new foam piece now. I'd definately buy Wiley X glasses again.

The frames are fine though. Those foam eye surrounds are invaluable. I couldnt ride without them. I ordered a whole new pair with prescription lenses and the real Transition lenses. Work like a charm (although they have to be in direct sunlight to darken).
I still recommend a pair of the Wiley X made for motorcycling. I think they have a pretty good warranty if you break the frames. The removable foam eye cups are worth every penny.

I just rock a pair of scratched up Big Dog $10 sunglasses, but I don't wear a helmet.
I do wear a pair of $25 goggles I got from a Harley store on long trips. Maybe that would work over your helmet? Is it a full face helmet?
