Small clear glasses?

miss notax

Hello!

Right - the daft questions are starting....!

My other half is insisting that I wear clear lens glasses for some of the more tricky trails (on the basis that I am bound to fall off!) which is fair enough. I am having real problems finding some glasses with a small frame though - I seem to have a small face and buying sunglasses etc is always a total nightmare.

Are there any suggestions? I don't really want to spend too much, and don't really mind what they look like, they just need to be really small. If they did childrens versions they would probably fit me to be honest...!

Thanks 8)

hi,

only ones i can think of are Rudy Project www.rudyproject.com female range, sx-girl i think it'scalled kinda mid-range not silly expensive like oakleys etc or go for something quarter the price and prolly look too big but hey they're cheap'ish http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... delID=8123

Hi Dunker - thanks for the recommendations. The Rudy Project ones look good but i'm not sure whether the fames will be small enough (I really do seem to have a freakishly small head!)!

Both me and my girlfriend use these..

Made by Bolle, but for a fiver I don't feel devestated if I break or scratch them.

There are other pairs on the screwfix site if you don't like orange!!:

The arms are adjustable in both length and angle.. my girlfriend is petite although I wouldn't say her head was freakishly small!!

I bought a tinted pair of these:

They are excellent for cycling. I can get bounced about and they do not move at all.

Don't know what size your head is, but mine ain't big - sort of Small to Med for cycle helmet.

Thanks for the replies. FSR_XC - I like the look of the Bolle ones off Ebay, and for about £12 all in you can't really go wrong can you!

Cheers, Sarah

with those you're losing 40% of light though? not the best thing for low-light or evening rides? can you get those with clear lenses?
