In May of 2008, I ordered a couple of new pairs of riding glasses for Christine and I. We were looking for something that offered transitional lenses (dark in the sunlight and clear at night) so we could wear the same glasses for day and night riding but also wanted somthing that provided both the safety feature we were seeking. We discovered the Global Vision Freedom 24 glasses.

 

We've heen riding with these since and I'm not sure we'll ever ride with another set of glasses! We both enjoy the styling and comfort and also find the removable padding is fantastic at keeping out the wind. Thus far, they've also stood up to the punishment of being mine! I'm constantly dropping my glasses on all types of surfaces and these have held up just fine.

 

We liked these so much, we've decided to start carrying Global Vision's glasses here at Cool Bike Rides. You will find a variety of glasses we're currently carrying below. If you are seeking something in particular, and don't see it here, please contact us at icreswell@coolbikerides.com or ccreswell@coolbikerides.com and we'll see what we can do to help!

 

From Global Vision: "Our glasses and goggles, which have shatterproof polycarbonate lenses, are perfect protection for other outdoor activities such as ATV riding, skateboarding, rollerblading, skydiving, shooting and any other extreme sports where superior eye protection is important."
