I know someone that uses these and says they are well worth the 15 they cost.

I can vouch for that, I bought 2 pair last year, clear and smoked. Well worth the money.

I just purchased two pair of Bobster Piston Goggles, one amber and one clear. I wasn't expecting the lenses to be that good(what do you expect for $14 and some change a piece), but they are actually quite clear with minimal haziness. I also own some WileyXs and they have got to be the crappiest optics on a pair of glasses that cost so much. I've owned them over two years, and they are so crappy I am ashamed to even give them away. I will never buy another pair of Wileyx in my life. The smoke lens has a nice tint, but they are HAZY overall. Oakley polarized lenses are some of the best lenses around. You get a clean, crisp view through them, but unlike the other two mentioned above, they do not have any type of seal or foam around the eyes. I own six pair of Oakley and love them, but they are not riding glasses.....at least not for long rides.

I am always one of the first people to say you get what you pay for, but the Bobster goggles were a pleasant surprise. Just find a pair that fits your face. They have many different styles and shapes.

Try These http://www.biker-glasses.com/lpsl.htm They are cheap, stylish & functional if you don't need a prescription. Lose or break them, no big $ loss.

You can get glasses with interchangable lens that also have padding on the inside..I find it helps keeping debris from getting blown in you eyes

Yesterday I went to the Honda dealer here in Grand Rapids. They had a good selection, Found a pair that fit perfect for 18.00. They are the best fitting ones I have had yet.
