what do you guys ride in?

glasses or goggles is where I'm going !
I've have been looking at WILEY X (brick) prescription glasses for everyday use and ridin my eyes are getting a lil worse over the years as I age or all the welding I used to do as a pipefitter. I wear a half helmet all the time even in cooler weather and wear gnat goggles which are awesome but I need to be able to focus more ahead.

Motorcycle specific riding glasses. wrap around, foam padding, vented, anti-fog, shatterproof. Both for sun and clear. I'll be going to chromatic lenses in about a month. The rest will remain the same.

WileyX glasses, smoke and clear lenses. Frame has a foam rubber gasket that allows passive airflow but keeps alot of extra blow-behind grit out.

What ever kind of glasses you wear make sure they are shatterproof! I ride with safety sun glasses and actually had a big beetle crack a lens once, really scary.

I usually wear a full face, but the times I don't, I wear safety glasses. The kind you get from Home Depot for about $5.
