    Safety Sunglasses

    I found this outfit on eBay but they also have a proper web presence. I was looking for earplugs for use on bike and tractor and also purchased some safety shades for on the bike with a open lid or visor up summer use.

    Excellent value and super quality glasses that are safe if an errant wasp smacks them at high speed. I am wearing them all the time as the optical quality is so good. <---- Me!!

    Re: Safety Sunglasses

    Used them for some time now and I agree. Never understood the point of wearing protective visor and a nice pair of glass lense sunglasses underneath. Don't think glass will do you much good in a spill!

    I also use the very lightly yellowed safety glasses at night, my uncle is issued with them in the north pole to prevent snow blinding. They are fantastic for reducing the headlight glare to the point where you can see the driver of the oncoming car behind the lights but not really loose any visability yourself. It is a bit of a leap of faith wearing sunglasses at night but well worth it once you get used to it.

    They also stop that awful full beam glare from the sign and information overload we are faced with at every junction and corner for all the muppets out there that think reading the road means if there is no sign to warn you its not your fault!

    just my 2p's worth!

    I have used these people as well on many occasions and I agree the glasses are excellent!

    Little tip for you all, they gave me a flyer with a discount code on it, enter ebso806 when you checkout and they give you 5% off. I have emailed them and they don't mind me telling you

    They have also told me they are bringing out some new Bolle glasses, so watch this space

    I bought mine from http://www.safety-one.co.uk/ run by Pamela Morrell, the prices are great innit, i got Bolle Prisms for around a fiver, very light, good eye cover from wind and not too dark so they can be used in shadowy London.

    That's them, same as a lot of us have found! Looks like a recommendation in strength, especially for the shades!
