Can anyone reccommend a pair of Tri Sunglasses? There are soooo many out there and they all have good selling points. Your advice would be greatly appreciated

Yes, there are so many, and I do believe I've tried my share. I am now a big fan of Rudy Project. I wore Karosenes for a few years, and have recently purchased a pair of Ekynox SX sunglasses. I like these because they fit my face much better. They have a great selection of lenses for each sunglass type, and also a great replacement policy for any damaged lense. Have fun shopping!

This is going to incure the wrath of both the triathlon and consumerism gods.....but....I use shooting glasses by Smith and Wesson. Reasons? 1. Price, at about $10 a pair you can't go wrong. 2. Safety, they meet ANSI requirements for construction safety glasses and that is tough. I don't worry about road debris being kicked up. 3. Comfort. 4. They look OK too.
