Oakley M Frames
www.oakley.com

I have worn them since 1985 when I got my first pair of Blades and I now have about 15 different pairs/styles. Why? Because their customer service is OUTSTANDING! I have broken a few sets of their glasses from either them being stepped on by my partner in the ambulance, rolled over by me and I have sent them back to Oakley and within a week I have a next day air package at my door with a new frame, no questions asked. I tried to get new ear socks(temples ) for a pair and I e-mailed Oakley to buy 4 sets from them direct becuase I couldn't find the color I needed. The next week I had a package with the ear socks. They gave them to me, not even a charge for shipping.

Oakley has me as a customer for life

+1 for Oakley, have been using them for years
Polarized ones. When you are riding ALL day with regular shades my eyes would burn and hurt. With the polarized you can run all day. I do carry yellow and clear lenses with me. The yellow work great at dawn, dusk, or cloudy when the sun is not that bright.

Own several pair of WileyX, panotix and Maui Jim, the Maui Jim are not shatterproof for
motorcycling but are the best of the three, then panotix is next for opticical quality then
I put WileyX last, the WileyX glasses fit great but you can tell the lens are just not as
clear as the others, btw Serengeti is some of the finest and most expensive glasses
made I am sure there are great to.

Wiley X have worked for me for years. The photochromatic lenses do not get as dark as regular sunglasses, so I also have a pair of Wiley regular sunglasses. I like the light adjusting lenses best on cloudy days and at night.

Don't Laugh! I wear glasses (can't tolerate contacts)so I bought a pair of those HD Wraparounds that you see on T.V. They are GREAT and keep my eyes protected when I'm wearing a half helmet. Best 19 bucks spent on eyewear!
