I wear $10 safety glasses with a $2 neoprene bungy between the arms. My eyes are protected and i don't care if they break and i loose them which occasionally happens.

I wear them year round, sun or rain. During the storms, high winds and sideways rain or sideways white wash spray that hurts your face you dont have to worry about high speed water in the eye.

Hi, I have been using Lip Typhoon sunglasses for more than a year. They have polarized lenses and hydrophobic coating, so the water don’t stay on the lenses.
Really comfy, I can highly recommend them.

I use the www.seaspecs.com since many years.

With brown glasses...this makes me see chop better than black glasses.

Tried all the brands and have to say the decathlon kitesurf sunglasses are the best I've used . Polarized and strong protection curves around the head nicely and they even float at 25€ a pair you can't go wrong
