I wear Panoptx, got a pair when they were closing them out when 7 Eye took over. This is my second pair and they work great plus I like being able to remove the foam so I can wear them as normal sunglasses too.

Anything above 50 mph and you need gaskets ... Google 'em.

At first I thought they were goofy, but I got a pair and I LOVE them - great field of view, great glare reduction. And TONS of complements, that I was not expecting!

Well I've had panoptx and just got some Wiley X a couple months ago and wishing I would have never given the panoptx away. They just dont fit my face like the panoptx did. I've since put the Wiley x away and just wear Spy sunglasses day and night and they don't make me tear up like the Wiley's do sometimes.

I have a pair of Wiley X Airrage sunglasses for the day. Also have the same thing with clear lenses for at night.

use to have a pair of Panoptx but they didn't work with a fullface helmet. Wiley X works with the fullface as well as my half helmet.

This is what I use.

They have transition lenses, therefore are clear at night and the air dam pops off if you want to wear them simply as sun glasses. Good build quality and are available with your Rx if required.
Cheers!
