RE: day/night glasses

I got a set of the "curves" glasses, and they work great. At first I didn't think they got very dark, but then I realized, that no matter the light , looking thru the glasses never changed, and when I took them off, and looked at them, the lens was very dark.

I bought a cheap pair off ebay. I love them! They work just fine at night and get dark enough during the day.

I have Panoptx and they are good glasses, the only complaint I have is that on really sunny days they do not get dark enough. If you are going to carry one pair of glassses and might be riding home in the dark they are the way to go.

I have the Panoptx also. They don't get as dark as I thought they would but they work great. I never squint but what is really impressive is the clarity. They do a really good job of eliminating glare even though they are not polarized. At night they are clear and again do a good job of removing glare from traffic. Not to mention with the foam in place, there is zero wind getting to my eyes so no more tears!

my current favorites are Smith & Wesson Magnum Safety/shooting Glasses...

Red lense for day - Clear lense for night/rain/etc...
http://www.smith-wessonsafety.com/Sa...numSafety.html

the red is really good for contrasting water in clouds - makes the rainy ones more obvious

My choice for shield-up riding as well. I am intrigued by the copper (hmmm...)
