Does anyone have any? if yes, do you have a link?

Emailed glasses direct with possibility of creating a replacement visor for my oakleys frame with my prescription (which is mild). But nothing back yet.

Sick of faffing with my glasses every time i ride. And now summers over its only a matter of time before i'll be fogging up.
can't do contacts because of hayfever, discomfort and forever searching the floor for one.

Surely someone else has been here before me Thinking .

Cheers

Slim

You can get Rx diving masks, so MX googles ought to be do-able... even if you just cut the nose bit off a diving one Wink They have to be the type with 2 seperate windows for the eyes rather than one-piece across.

More seriously, contacts are far and away the best thing for riding with ever; if you've not tried recently, have another go, and if they fall out at all, something's not right with the size/type/fit - change opticians and go somewhere better

I thought about this.

But realised

A) The opticians can't put my frames in certain glasses as they are too wide - im blurry as fuck without them Thumbs Down

so basically the likelyhood of getting them in goggles equated to zero. Or anything like the quality of normal glasses anyway.

Fog spray is your freind Thumbs Up

Saying that I've yet had a problem with fog.
