Anyone own them or know if the transition lenses work well? Or have any recommendations?
I have those exact glasses and find that they don't get dark enough for me during the day for use in bright sunlight. They are currently relagated to evening / night time duty and I have a pair of Oakley Batwolfs as my main daytime glasses.

Goggle's Man...... No dry eye, keeps everything blowing around out there from getting under you glasses, plus scares the hell out of little kids looking at you when you pas them.

Just saying......

Yup, and probably the best I've had is the wrap-around DeWalt Safety glasses from your local hardware stores like Lowes for $10, they last forwever, and I'm hell on glasses.

To see a picture of the ones I have try google, "Dewalt Radius Safety Glasses" with smoked lenses they are 9.99 at Home Depot. They don't break, get scratched and keep the wind and sun out of your eyes.
