Damn...I got mine off fleaBay for around $45.00. I had my eye doc order prescription lenses for them about a year after I'd been using them. I love em.

I got the Wiley X Jake glasses as a gift for father's day. Love the fit, look and transition lens. I really noticed a difference when driving 75 mph and above. They are expensive but I agree that they are worth it. I will never go back to standard glasses.

Goggles work better than anything else.
Fit can be adjusted to snug/tight, keeps the wind out, easy to shift up to your forehead when going through dark tunnels, stays on your face.
Only downside is not as much peripheral vision but that can be compensated for by turning your head which you should do anyway.
Wiley X never were my first choice, the nose piece isn't comfortable to me.
Gotta find a pair that's comfy on your nose.

I really like the Liquid Gaskets polarized. They come in a bunch of different color combos. You can get a foam insert but I feel they aren't needed. And their customer service is awesome! I order them online and riding with them 48 hours later. Pricey but worth it! At the end of the day, it's all about how good you look!!!!

Cheap Azz chicago style sun glasses with the foam from your online leather stores like leatherup, bikers den and others. They work and if I break or lose them I am only out 12-15 bucks

I just got my pair of Ugly Goggles from the Capt in the mail a couple days ago. I am anxious to try them out after my knee is recovered enough to take a ride. I wear glasses and they fit over them pretty well and look like they will give good protection and help to keep my eyes from drying out. They also give a good field of vision.
