Ski Diva Extraordinaire
Okay, I'm putting this under ski gear because I know a lot of people use them for skiing although I want mine for running/cycling/general use.
I need new ones. I'm realizing that mine are not doing the job. My eyes still feel stressed and tired after spending time out in the sun, especially if I don't have a hat or visor on. My current pair are Tifosi but I don't think the lenses are polarized so that's probably the problem.
What I need. Something that will work with a hat/visor. I don't think I want interchangeable since the ones I have are but I rarely take the time to change them out. Most of the time I'm in a hurry to meet my training group and the last thing I want to have to mess with are lenses.
And while I'd like to say that I change out my shades for lifestyle and sport to be honest I end up grabbing the same pair so I'd like these to go across.
So, I like the looks of the Zeal Optics Airstream with their ZB-13 lens which they tout as being good for a wide range of lighting conditions. Anyone have any experience with this lens?
I'd like to keep the price closer to $100 but willing to go to $150 if they fit and look right as I've finally gotten to a place in my life where I seem to be able to keep a pair of sunglasses for a couple of years. This seems to knock out Oakley (gosh they think a lot of their sunglasses!). I'm slightly partial to either Zeal or Smith because my run shop carries them and could special order anything from them for me. Not only do I like to patronize them but I do get loyalty money from them so this would be a good chunk toward another $25 credit. :p
Okay, now that I wrote a book, any thoughts or suggestions?
