    A neoprene-type strap,maybe?
    Or glue them to your head.They won't slip down,you'll never lose them and you'll look cool 24hrs/day.You'll get used to people trying to buy drugs from you and make new and "interesting" friends.

    I have the same "condition". I suggest looking for sport shields/glasses with the soft rubber feet or pads. Some even claim they get stickier with sweat. I have a pair of Nike glasses I use with rubber pads. They don't slip down. Be careful when buying sunglasses for riding. My complaint about the limited number of sunglasses I've used on bike is that they aren't designed with enough brow coverage. What I mean to say is that when you're in the drops, looking up at the road, the glasses force you to look over the top of the rims or the rim obstructs the view. I plan to check this before I buy my next pair, but it's something to be aware of.

  4. i'm also from asia and yes i do have flat nose. i use either m-frame (oakley) or freeon (rudy) depends on weather...

  5. Hi

    BBB makes a very reasonable range of cycling specific glasses
    Some have metal nose supports, which can be bent to fit. They also come with additional lenses for different conditions
    Check out their website at www.bbbparts.com

    Regards
    Ken

  6. I highly recommend the ADIDAS Gazelle Climacool.
    Its made for running so its got a very grippy nose piece.
    Has all the features of other sport sunnies: interchange lense, prescription clipin, fully adjustable....and very looks cool too.
    Pezcycling has a review at pezcyclingnews.comdefault.asp
    and for specs visit adidas at adidas.comindex.asp
