You know the worst thing is having to order stuff line this online before trying it. I have already wasted money on return shipping this week just try on a helmet.

Yea I usually don't like ordering anything I wear online either. I wasted money on a Leatherup jacket that I sent back and it still didn't fit so I was stuck with a 6 foot sleeve tight jacket.
I ordered some Wiley X transistion glasses a while back since they were on clearance for $20 I believe they are for small faces so they don't quite fit but for $20 they are ok.
I ordered my Bell helmet and 2 different pairs of Wiley X glasses online and they fit perfect though.

I stay with Decot Hy Wide shooting glasses.Interchangeable Rx lenses,so I've got dark bronze for bright sunlight,light orange for night riding.They defeat shotgun pellets fired from 20 yards. They wrap around the ear with big padded arms,and don't move around,even in high cross winds.I don't like a gasket seal,that crap sucks.

Motorcycle glasses are generally seen as fashionable accessories and many do not think about the safety element. It is essential that you choose a good pair of glasses that suits your helmet and also variety of motorcycle. For example, if you use a helmet that does not have a visor then it would be near difficult to ride a bike without appropriate eye protection, particularly at high speed.

Everyone has their comfort level- I wear contacts and found KD's more comfortable for me in all weather conditions.

About every 2 years I buy a new pair of wrap-around sunglasses at the local Holiday gas station. They cost about $11 and work great.

I have a few pair of the high end expensive Panoptix/7Eye and WileyX but just picked up a pair of $12 glasses off the web. Loved them so much I went back and ordered another 2 pair. 12 bucks! Can't beat it.
