 Posted: 05/23/03 - 10:44 Post subject: Sunglasses
I'd like to get some sport sunglasses for running & cycling but currently wear bifocals. I don't like wearing my prescription glasses for athletic activities especially biking since they weren't made for such activity.
I saw these offered on the net and wondered if any of you have tried this solution.
Opinions?

Hmm, interesting. I guess I was expecting them to cost a lot more. Might be worth the try at that price.

husband had inserts for his Bolles.....they did NOT look like old man shades!!!! You can also use the same concept for swim goggles...............he got his eyes fixed in November. I got prescription running sunglasses and they make me a little dizzy with the prescription throughout the lens because of the curved/wraparound style. I think the insert idea is actually better and hella cheaper

I got my sunglasses at Lowe's, they are wraparound contractor sunglasses and I never had a better fit or better sun blocking.
And they was $9.98
