Default Someone recommend ridding glass Under $2

Last year I read on the forum about cheap ridding glass and I can't find the tread anywhere. I bought a pair from the website they recommended for under $2 and they where the best ridding glasses I have ever had. Unfortunatly I sat on them last night and broke them. Anyone know of the website. They where totally clear glasses.

+1 on safety glasses.....
Home depot, lowes, harbor freight, northern tool,
http://www.discountsafetygear.com/saglleth2.html
edge, aosafety, crews, lots of good, approved glasses.....I carry a few on the bike at all times, if I lose a pair, or night falls, and a friend doesn't have clears... it's no problem

You can spend a lot of money on high end name brands.... but they get lost, and even scratched.... I buy several pair at once, and keep them in reserve

as always YMMV

Are those things safe if something off the road hits them? I'd hate to have a pebble or something come through my glasses and lose an eye.

ANSI Z87 glasses are "impact resistant". You sould be safe.

Nope sorry, will stick with my Oakleys. Not cheap but the lenses are so precise there isn't any distortion. Not a yuppie thing, started wearing em in the Corps. With the cost trust me I know where they are all the time.
