KD sunglasses
All righty, first off I have been wearing KD sunglasses long before Sons of Anarchy was even a thought.
Anyone else really like them? They are inexpensive and get the job done. I always have several pairs and when I loose/misplace a pair, no big deal.
Most recently, I tried the bifocal KD - what a deal.

I bought my first pair about two weeks ago. In cooler weather I often wear a fullface helmet with a tinted face shield. If I ever get stuck out after dark, I wanted a small compact clear set of glasses that I could talk underneath my seat and not worry about them getting messed up. I've used them a few times after dark with the helmet and so far so good. The only problem is they fogged up when I gets chilly at stoplights but that's to be expected. You can't beat their stuff for the price... I paid eight dollars for this pair.
And really, who the hell cares about SOA references. The show is modeled after real life trends within the biker community. The only people that don't realize that are people that don't ride or don't know the culture...

I've been riding with them for years, and still do but less frequently. There are many choices which provide better protection from the wind and sun and debris. But yeah, KD's get the job done.

Gotta tell this story about kid's.years ago while in the navy (submarines) I ordered 2 pair of kid's from the back of a magazine. The order came out to 4.50 a pair . All I had was a 10 dollar bill. I put my order in the mail and we went out on an op. When we got back I had a small package at mail call. Inside were 2 pairs of original kid's, a packing list, a and a 1 dollar bill.

They don't work for me. My kid bought me a pair last year.

Being a guy that couldn't keep a pair of sunglasses or eyewear without losing or breaking them, my KDs never have let me down.
I always have them stashed in a coat, truck, in yellow for inclement weather, as well as bifocal clear and polarized.
I hope they step up and offer more in bifocal for their customer demographics that are as old as the company.

I have a pair of KD's I wear occasionally, but the wife thinks they look goofy for some reason. Usually I wear 3M Virtua safety glasses, they're the best things I've found for riding. Super cheap, ANSI rated, come in a huge selection of tints, fit very tight to my face with no frame, I almost can't tell I'm even wearing them. Plus they're less than $2.00.
