What kind of eye protection do you use? I have some Oakley M-Frames that I like alot.
I recently bought a pair of the 5.11 Harrier glasses, which I dont like at all. |

Half Jackets, want to get some M frame or radars when the budget allows, and by budget I mean wife. Love my Half Jackets, had them for 5 years, had a pair of XX and moon before that, problem is at 60-70mph on the bike they swirl the wind around and into my eyes, hoping a full shield style lens will be better for this. |

Cheap ones, less than $10. This. I have some yellow-colored ones that I got from Gander Mtn. Just bought some $20 sunglasses from Academy. Both are essentially M-Frame knockoffs. 
A pair of $90 (with .mil discount) Monster Dog Oakleys saved my eyesight when a detainee used a slingshot to hurl a piece of metal at my face during a riot. He had stuck a bunch of pieces of c-wire in one of the rubber buckshot balls (non-lethal  ) that we had shot at them during a previous riot, and fashioned a sling shot out of latex gloves (which were supposed to be accounted for) and cardboard(from their milk).
One of the interpreter that was with us on the catwalks wasn't so lucky. He was wearing PX bought aviators and, long story shot, had his eye shot out a few weeks after their attempt on me. Got hit in the face, Oakley saved my eyesight. I'll never buy another brand. EDT: Moral of the story....don't go cheap |
