    For pikeyness I'm using some MuddyFox glasses from Sports Direct. Fairly wide for my fat head and a bonus of interchangeable lens colours.

    what Helmet you have also needs to be considered as not all fit with all helmets.

    I have to swap between my Oakleys depending on XC or Pisspot lid.

    They arent crap but arent Oakleys... put it that way.
    For £8 I thought it was worth a punt, otherwise I was going to have a go with some of the safety specs from screwfix :lol:

    You can get fakleys for a teens of pounds on Ebay. I picked up a pair and they're pretty wide. Good fit. They do the job alright. I did actually have some Oakleys but lost them on the trail and figured that eye wear is too disposable in our sport to warrant spending that much money on. I do have a bit of a concern that I have no idea if there is any UV protection on them... That and one of the Fakley badges fell off. Sad face.

    I like the look of the mullets. Will have to try and find them in my LBS.
