Slap the Giro Fader sunglasses on your dome and find comfort in the fact that, should something pop up and whack you in the face, your shatterproof polycarbonate lenses will protect you. You can also find comfort in the fact that you'll likely spot anything long before it hits you, thanks to Zeiss-certified lenses.

Bottom Line: Distortion-free and random whack-proof.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Great lense, great price

I picked these up to mountain bike in. I'd rather not wear racer-looking stuff, ya know? I love how clean the view is through the lenses and how tough they are. I lost 'em (crashed) on my first ride and they bounced hard off some roots. Not a scratch. They don't fit my head perfectly, they kind of want to push off of my face somewhat. I think that the arms start to wrap just a little too soon for my face and it forces them to hit on a spot more forward than the top/rear of my ear. It's real close though, so a croakie type thing will likely help out. They compare very much to the Smith Outlaw as far as styling goes, with the Outlaw being a bit of a better fit for me.
