Looking for recommendations for dual sport eyewear/protection other than tradational mx goggles. I'm a comfort nut (who wouldn't be) and will try on a hundred pair if i have to in order to find the best fit. Brand, Style, $$ ??
Thanks, Chris H.
Many D/S guys I ride with are wearing high impact glasses. Comfortable, cheap and they don't fog up as badly as goggles.

I don't wear goggles anymore opn DS rides because they limit my side vision. I wear my old reliable military plastic framed issue clear and tinted frames that have my bifocals also. I know some of the sport glasses, like Wiley 8 offer prscription with bifocals. I wore those Hi-Point clear glasses when I had my Penton back in the 70s but then I also didn't wear prescriptions. I'm due for a new prescription so I may look around for some of those sport glasses that I can wear with a helmet
You might try Rudy Project if you dont mind impact resistant glasses designed for other sports. I have had them for squash and cycling. Some models have interchangeable lenses. Also Briko are great but Italian and very rare in US unless you mail order. Neither look vintage of course but will prob fit your needs. If you go to an REI they will also carry some less pricy models of sport glasses and you can try them all on. Good luck.
Walmart has foam backed wrap around riding glasses in their atv department. They are inexpensive and I have them in clear, yellow, tan, and gray. This link is not walmart but they look to be the same.
