    eyeballs and across your face?

    BLOC Stealth goggles from Halfords cheap (£15) as shop
    'soiled' -- looked fine to me! Included 3 lenses: clear
    (very slightly tinted), yellow and dark. Very good goggles.
    No scratches after about a year and a half's use (Summer
    and Winter), very light and sit well on the nose.

    I concur. My Stealths have served me very well, and the UK
    importer sent me two new nose pieces (valued at £2.99ea.)
    for free after the original submitted to a car tyre.

    Madison D'Arcs.

    Cost something like £30 and come with three
    interchangeable lenses - clear, dark and yellow.
    Comfortable, don't steam up, fit well and don't fall off.
    No complaints at all, really.

    Haven't had them that long though and can't compare them to
    anything else, but one way or another, I would say that some
    kind of eye protection is an *essential* part of your
    cycling wardrobe.

    I like them a lot but the quality control is a bit suspect
    in that the leg hinges crack as the frame part was too thick
    and the lenses (eventually) all cracked in the middle as the
    frame was stressing the lens upwards at the outside ends
    (does that make sense?.

    I never found an adress that they replied to when I wanted
    to see it theie "Lifetime Warrenty" was any good :-(

    My eye protection comes in the form of my oakley sunglasses.
    I love them to bits. superbly well made. The price is
    offputting though, but they last for ages.
