I used to go through pair after pair, then about 5yrs ago I found a pair of revo sunglasses (real glass) not plastic lenses. Well revo like other companies only make stuff for a while and then go with new designs. I could not find the pair Ive had for 5yrs anywhere in the states. I have a small head so most glasses make me look like a bug:D :p so I finaly found a place that had them. It is called the blind peacock: http://www.theblindpeacock.com/ I ordered them on sat and got them this morning Revo 3012 blue lenses. The reason I find it amazing is they are in Japan:confused: I can't even get stuff delivered that fast from one state over let alone overseas:rock: . So I thought I would pass along a good site for those who like a good pair of sunglasses. The Revo's are a bit pricey but well worth it. Also if you do buy from them, in comments section put down Matt B sent ya. They want to close after they sell out but Im trying to get them to keep going, like to keep good businesses goin. Well enjoy.

So, Can you compare them to Ray Bans? I find glass lenses to be heavy compared to plastic or whatever.

they blow ray ban out of the water and they are lighter than oakley;) I can drive in direct sun without putting my visor down. If you got a sunglass hut around go try a pair on.
Thanks for the heads up bro, I will check em out.

I've only had 2 pair of sunglasses in the last 10 years or so. Both of them have been Bolle Canebrakes. They have lasted me in the hundreds of thousands of miles on the bike, from deserts to snow. The only reason I had to replace the first pair was that I lost them jetskiing at Disney World. hehe
 
My Panoptics have served me well. Have two versions one dark for daylight riding and one that changes color from shooting yellow to dark - great for seeing deer in the evening on the scooter. Both have detachable wind blockers. Had em for 5 years now and they've taken everything I and the bike have dished out.

Thanks for the post....always helps to have alternatives.
 
Inuits anyone?

Functional, durable, timeless ...... :D :D :D :elefant: :elefant: :elefant:

1) Jake Brown Inuits made from remnants of two years ago toilet room flooring
2) Ladies model inuits
3) Prof Inuits for the intelectual in you
4) Super Security Inuits - these are being custom made for Ant-Knee's trip to PCB GTG

5) and if anyone doesn't like the inuits this is what I think :)
