My visually challenged fam: Do you run Rx glasses or contacts for ridings?

@TheBirchCreek 2 года назад

Rx glasses. Mostly just those I wear regularly. Another pair for longer rides etc. Used to have transitioning lenses. Now I also have a "sporty" pair with magnetic tinted/polaroid clip-ons - that works relatively well, but is far from ideal - I probably won´t get another pair of this kind, will rather go back to transitioning.

@lechprotean 2 года назад

contact lenses. A setup like your Oakley could work, but the FOV is pretty narrow with the inner prescription lens. For multi-day trips I take dailies and wipe my fingers with wet wipes before putting them on.

@Schlem 2 года назад

I've just been riding with my Rx spex, but I've been thinking about this for a long time. Haven't found the right pair, and I'm a bit leery of buying a spendy maybe-it'll-fit-my-equestrian-head pair on faith and wishful thinking. Mebbe I'll hit Roka... BTW, a pair of readers is boss when something fiddly arises. thanks!

@pauldeutsch 2 года назад

I switch it up. Usually contacts and Smith cycling glasses, but sometimes Rx lenses in my Oakley Jawbones.

@luizgabeira3064 2 года назад

Contacts all the time - bring an extra in the frame bag just in case.

@mitchrapp9727 2 года назад

Still waiting for the DKlein X Oakley collab. That would be nice!!

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

OMG This would be next level!!

@zimmejoc 2 года назад

When I lived in northern latitudes like you are at in Portland, photocromatics were great. Then I moved to west Texas and with no trees or shade for miles, they just don’t get dark enough to properly make riding comfortable.

@lukehendrickson3669 2 года назад

I don't even need rx stuff, but I watched anyway cause, well, your vids rule.

@4headgaming448 2 года назад

This is awesome, thanks Dustin!

@RobertWallace 2 года назад

I've been using oakley flak for about 20 yrs and I get my Rx photochromic. On the Flak 2.0, but still a bit oldschool design. Photochromic is great for trails with a lot of tree cover and also for long days that end in a pub ride in the evening.

@CheepSteal 2 года назад

Thanks for doing this Dustin! So hard to find a good set of prescription sport frames; my favourite so far is definitely the Ombraz with dark tint. Going to order a set of Dolomites for clear RX night riding lenses now. Cheers from Sydney.

@izakj5094 2 года назад

Thank you! I needed a few recommendations so badly.

@timmer7414 2 года назад

I’d also add that the weight of the frame + prescription lenses is quite important. I got a smith prescription set up and the weight of the frame and lens was so much heavier than my daily glasses that the bridge of my nose would get quite sore after a day of wearing. I switched to a prescription Maui Jim (very norm/dad core) with much better results. I did just place an order for Oakley Sylas with photochromic lenses so I don’t have to think about switching between my regular glasses and sunglasses if I’m out and about

@twgood5882 2 года назад

I like the Bolle that looks like a slightly more streamlined version of the Oakley Jawbreaker. They are also perfect for vlogging while driving.

@adambarlev8992 2 года назад

I would like to see more reviews of the Bolle prescription lens. It doesnt look like its constructed the same way Oakley does it.

@@EverythingsBeenDone I think you’re spot on with the photochrome lenses. Not to mention you got the best shit on the RU-vids. 👍👍

@stuartpotter4923 2 года назад

I've got a set of Bolle that I got from RXSport in the UK - they're bolle RX lenses and I've got varifocal in there... I've got a very strong + prescription and have spent years just putting up with what I could get for wearing on the bike. These are hands down the best riding glasses/lenses combo I've ever had and the first sports specific specs I've had that don't feel like a compromise in performance or my vision.

@scotti_wan_kenobi 2 года назад

I wear prescription photochromic all the time, it saves me having to carry multiple pairs of glasses. My Ray Ban frames have carbon fibre arms, are super light and stay put all the time. Those Roka frames look really good, might look into them for my next pair.

@sandrochiavaroBeerCircles 2 года назад

I got the POC do flow with prescription photocromatic lents from Sport RX. Love them. Just very $$$

@tobotron 2 года назад

You did it! Thank you so much! Will go for the Clifden …

@XR4turbo 2 года назад

On the subject of gear...I'm wondering if you could do a saddle bag or tool wrap roundup? The Outvi Possm and the Blackburn Switch Wrap seem like particularly interesting alternatives to the traditional everything bouncing around type saddlebags. Great stuff as always.

@KarlHerr 2 года назад

I primarily wear rx glasses that have a color tint (I've got a set of pink, and a set of yellow lenses). I tend to wear these as my everyday glasses but they work great on the bike as well. The only time I find myself wearing contacts is during snow storms and then I wear regular goggles. Sweet Roskopp deck.

@PaulBeiser 2 года назад

Hey Dustin, Great video as always :-). One thing to look out for wrt photochromic. They have to sacrifice range of darkness, they cannot cover the full range from very dark to very light. So.. I have several pairs :-), I use the lower range for cycling (for the Oh Dark Thirty starts), but use the higher range ones for skiing. I prefer polarized and just deal with my cameras (note the smartphones have very high tech screens that are not impacted!). My favorite glasses are made by Oakley and Julbo. Final note, you are young, :-) have you seen a high end opthamologist to discuss options so you do not need prescription? That would be life changing, btw. Thanks again for a wonderful informative video! btw, there is a whole separate topic on color of the lenses, which is 'better' (or more accurately stated, the tradeoffs)!

@SashaLokhtin 2 года назад

I have julbo ones that is cat 0-3 something like 87% to 12% of light is coming though. I guess for skiing in the mountains you are need cat 4 but at sea level while xc skiing in bright sun i am ok with cat 3

@marcokalle2452 2 года назад

Photochromic surely is the way to go, no need to think about what lens to pop in your sunnies. Massive kudos for the Rob Roskopp board! That was my first board some 35-ish years ago 🤘🏽😎

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

Marco! The Rob Roskopp was my fist board as well! You called it with Photochromic I never want to wear anything else!

@gwynnlyell2539 2 года назад

I hate wearing glasses, but, have too. This was helpful. Oh yeah I do need glasses in spring and summer when the gnats are gnasteeeee and seem to have a craving for getting in your eyeballs. Excellent as usual.

@hansschotterradler3772 2 года назад

All of them make you look really good. The ombraz dolomite seem interesting since they have no arms that can break

Thanks for posting! Out of the prescription glasses, which had the least obstruction when doing an over-the-shoulder check for cars/lane changes/group rides/yadda?

@monsterthemink5787 2 года назад

I wear contacts and Oakley Jawbreakers with photochromic lenses (love those).

@passingmebri6974 2 года назад

Will always love the use of NORMCORE

@kelvindavison3314 2 года назад

I wore contacts for quite some time but find them a tad uncomfortable. I also had some RX inserts but they were garbag: made the frames heavy and slide down, would mist up and catch dirt, just not a great option. My go to now are a pair of Tifosi Amok direct lens photochromics. A bit pricey here in the UK but for almost all of my riding they have me covered. Look a bit full on when off the bike but they look fine when on it - I find they just do the job well.

@xpelled 2 года назад

i’m on prescription, i have siroko k3 and with photochromic yellow lens i’m happy as hell, especially for the price

@oheso 2 года назад

Will stick with my Rudy Project flip-ups, thank you very much. Dorky? You bet. Do they work? Far better than photochromics which (as others have noted) neither get dark enough for really bright light, nor light enough when it's dark. I wear them for anything outdoors: riding, driving, even just commuting when I have to walk 10 minutes in the bright sun.

@hungri-yeti1885 2 года назад

Photochromic is definitely the way to go. I have some nike sport frames with polarized & photochromic lenses. One thing I always use is a croakie eyeglasses tether, so don't need to ever worry about glasses slipping due to sweat or bouncing off when I crash, not that I ever do that...

@waisinglee1509 2 года назад

I wear Adidas Evil Eye Half Rims from Austria. They come in a variety of fixed tints with a snap in carrier for prescription lenses. The carrier does NOT move around.

@Havebikewillride 2 года назад

I have a pair of RX sun glasses. Maybe you would call them wrap around? They help keep the wind from hitting the side of my eyes and aggravating my dry eye condition. They’re basically one step before going full goggles.

@machikot5527 2 года назад

Good to know about photochemical lenses. I have been contemplating on them. They look completely clear in your video and they will come in handy in Seattle winter! BUT, unfortunately my eyesights are too bad for prescription sunglasses 😭

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

Photochromic is a game changer!!

@MrChuckmart 2 года назад

I wear Rudy Project Rydon RXs and they are excellent. With photochromic lenses, these have become my any time day or night riding glasses, my work safety glasses, and my all day every day glasses. One little gripe is that they don’t get dark in the car, as they rely on the uv to make them dark and uv is filtered out by your car windows. I’ve been thinking about getting another pair of dark (non photochromic) ones just for driving duty. They aren’t cheap. But they are so good. And They are so very adjustable with the wire core nose pads and temples. Far more so than the molded plastic of Oakley and most other glasses brands. Rudy Project is top notch!

@leslie7922 Год назад

I'm looking to buy a pair of these :)

@arcadialive4265 2 года назад

Smith is the best sport sunglasses, rx or any. (Anticipates feedback from Oakley fan boys ;)

@SashaLokhtin 2 года назад

My go to is julbo ultimate photochromic cat 0-3 lens and anti-fog - very comfortable and good side vision on bike. Lifestyle/run/hike is julbo Powell cat 3 polarized lens. Also have a julbo blast with cf3 lens (also cat 3) not really like the frame comfortwise - it is kinda push to much on the ears if used over long periods of time - wear them in dusty/windy conditions since they’re tight to face and stop sand from my eyes. All non prescriptions

@randallsmith7885 9 месяцев назад

I have been using Oakley Flak 2.0 RX version since 2017. Just broke a lens and am trying to decide whether to just get a new set of lenses in my new RX or go for a whole new set of glasses. Seems that none of the 'shield style' glasses that are so popular generally can't be done in RX... And the Jawbreakers have been around since before the Flak. I would love the mountaineering style glasses, but my road rides involve pacelines and people that are way too close, so I can't lose my peripheral vision.

@brettknoss486 4 месяца назад

If you get a green mirror on a green photochromic, the lens will shift from rose to grey, which I find nice.

@EverythingsBeenDone 4 месяца назад

Oh wow I really want to try this now!

@randallgd 2 года назад

Prescription without photochromic is what I've found to work the best. We live in Idaho, so we use them for various sports in the summer and in the winter. Since we play in the snow the photochromic goes dark from the brightness of the snow even at night. So my best set up is clear prescription glasses and several pairs of prescription sunglasses. Also, my experience with photochromic is that they don't go dark in your car because of the UV on the windshield is my understanding. It's been a few years since I've had a pair of photochromic lenses, maybe they've changed this? Rock on Dustin!

I went full meme mode and picked up some of those Pit Vipers off of Amazon. They are pretty sweet actually, but I don't love the polarized lenses, makes checking the phone, using a camera, or looking at other screens a bit harder

@alifecycles 2 года назад

I love my Jawbreakers. They are by far the best cycling glassed I've ever had. I dont wear glasses though.

@cjstudios5170 2 года назад

DK, I can tell from recent experience that there are some sunglasses that won't accept an Rx. That last pair you reviewed a prime example - size and shape make it difficult for an Rx, which means they provide that useless insert. Best to stick with an almost flat type of lens.

@whirving 2 года назад

I like the idea of photochromatic lenses but since I mostly fatbike in winter in Alaska the cold makes them turn dark...even when it is already dark outside. Which is a lot. I have really dry eyes so I finally gave up on contacts :( and now just wear normcore (love it) prescription frames or sunglasses. I have both dark polarized for the bright days on open snow and yellow/amberish tint for more diffused light. Fogging is an issue.

Wow, I normally just go with whatever $20 sunglasses I can find at the gas station, but I might have to get those Xandis if they offer UV protection. One thing i've noticed is that some glasses funnel air into your eyes and dry them out as you ride. It's hard to tell which ones will do that

Rudy Project "Fotonyk" user here, with the Rx insert. Using the same frame for more than 2 years now, have both dark-mirror lenses and the photochromic, so far so good. Swapping lenses and having to clean up between the Rx insert and the inside of the lens is a pain though...

@stevedykes2114 2 года назад

I'm rocking the Rudy Project "Cutline" with a progressive insert. I've got good at popping out the insert for cleaning, every fifth ride or so.

@loft4me 2 года назад

Having the need for a prism in my eye prescription, it limits the type of frames, as frames with a pronounced wrap will not work. But switching to a full face helmet with goggles, I can simply use my narrow frame everyday seeing glasses, worn under the goggles. Thanks Dustin for the video.

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

Thank you for clarifying that, I was never sure if one could use glasses under Goggles. Stoked on this intel.

@leodino3873 2 года назад

@lorrienitti9071 Год назад

Need prescription sunglasses with single vision photocromatic lenses that are more blade style. I need thick frames around the lenses - specifically no frame at the top. The frame at the top blocks vision when riding on a tri bike or an areodynamic position. I can't find anything. We like the Oakley EV Zero, but can't get it in prescription.

@troglodytestroglodytes220 2 года назад

@seancolwell3815 2 года назад

Prescription without photochromic. Options are much more limited with dual prescription lenses. Even more of a PIA for snowboarding.

But do these photochromic lens go tinted even across the entirety of each lens. I've had lens where only the part of the lens that's in direct sunlight go dark (e.g. I'm driving and the sun comes through a the driver side window and only 75% only lens become tinted. I literally have to close one eye and use the one lens that didn't go tinted since it was was in the shade on the other half of my face)

@bikepackingadventure7913 2 года назад

I don’t like photochromic glasses cycling as if it goes cloudy (U.K.) or stop off at a coffee shop it takes ages for them to clear. Because my eye sight is so bad, it can’t see without them. Also have dry eyes and using the Wilex X BOSS glasses for cycling as they have a gasket to block out the wind which is great for winter wind and good because they can take my strong prescription 🤔😊😊

@GuyMrIncognito 2 года назад

Important with any kind of sunglasses is the UV protection. Very cheap sunglasses i ok ften use only tinted glasses that don’t offer any UV protection at all, in fact those can even damage your eyes because due to the tinted lenses the incoming light appears less bright, so your pupils will open wide (like in the night). But because all the invisible UV light coned through your eyes can get damaged. Always check the UV protection before buying!

@billoneill6114 2 года назад

Fucking great Bro. Appreciate you! You're four eyed Philly friend likes this. Excellent breakdown on all the options.

@EverythingsBeenDone 2 года назад

@pookienumnums 2 года назад

about photochromic lenses: ive had two pair of transitions glasses. clear to black. im cheap so i got them at eyemart, and i dont replace them but every 2 to 3 years. if you are the type of person who doesnt replace them yearly, be aware that at least with both pairs that ive had, the transition eventually begins to wear off around the edges and gradually more and more toward the center to the point of when i finally replaced mine last week, when outside, i had about a half inch border of plain glasses with a dark center. looked totally stupid. ALSO, after the transition wears off, the lenses start to turn yellow.. so yeah.. i had a yellowed border around the dark center. double weirdo. this time, i just went with plain lenses so that if i still have these a couple of years from now they dont make me look like a creep.

@CarlosAvilla Месяц назад

is there a video on glasses for people with long eyelashes?

@ghettojohnny 2 года назад

Great Video! After watching it, I decided in Ordering some Clifdens but I got the Photochromatic in Clear to Grey. Got a couple of Question for you if it's ok? How fast is the Transition from Clear to Grey and back to Clear? Does the Cold Weather have any affect on the Transition? Thanks for any Input.

@stuartdilts2729 3 месяца назад

If anyone else is wondering this: The transition probably takes 1-2 minutes. It's fast enough that they don't stay dark too long when you go indoors, but you can get caught not being able to see if you suddenly go into dark environments. You mostly don't notice the change. The transition is slower in the cold. I mostly notice this during winter twilight. Sometimes you think it's getting real dark, but you take off your glasses and there is still plenty of light to see by. Overall, I do recommend them for your normal glasses or if you can't afford a second pair. My complaints are notable, but don't really come up that often for me.

The issue with photochromic lenses is that they dont work when driving since windshields filter UV

If it rains or is too hot, contact lenses. I prefer glasses. I dislike wrap-around glasses due to fog/condensation. I like dedicated sunglasses or clear -- I hate the "smokey" in-between look. Until you buy a pair that slips off, you don't realize HOW vital a tight fit is.
