 Posted: 07/01/04 - 12:14 Post subject: Legit Sunglasses question
OK guys, I need to get sunglasses for running.
What brand/style has worked for you ?
Have you had problems with sweat buildup behind the glasses ?
Fogging up ?
Slippage ?
Thanks
Andy

I wear huge mirrored Aviators sometimes.
Although I wear them as a joke, because they look completely ridiculous.

So you didn't like the Oakley Over the tops?? 
The latest ones I bought for running and cycling are these, they are Native brand (what do I know about brands  ) and are polarized, which has helped a lot more than I expected it to, especially with cycling.
I actually have them in the brown
As seen here
You can kind of see in the bigger picture they have little holes across the top (that you can't see when they are on your face) that vent the sweat preventing fogging which is WONDERFUL. No slippage.

I have a pair of Nike's; lightweight plastic, slight wraparound to the lenses, polarized, and they have a non-skid pad on the bridge of the nose. They're great. I have a different pair for cycling - these have pop-out lenses for changing conditions, but otherwise they are much like the Nikes in construction.
Edited to add that I don't have fogging problems with my Nikes unless I slip them up on my head for a few minutes. I guess the sweat in my hair makes them fog up once I put them back down over my eyes. No vent holes, no slippage problems.

I'd like a pair of Oakley M-frames for cycling and running. Very lightweight, vent holes available, and no slipping. I think you can get them polarized too. The downside is they're really overpriced.
About $105 for base model
$145 for vent holes
$200 for vents and polarized
I have a friend that wears Eye Jackets to run. I guess he's never had a problem with them because he still wears them.
