Yeah, I'm all about the crazy glasses and shoes(as evident by my own offerings), but those are just too much.

I was thinking the same thing. I can't stand those glasses. I think if he went for something a little darker or maybe white frames that might help bring him into into the 90's and out of the late 80's.

I thought the exact same thing yesterday - they look like the glasses that LeMond debut'd in the late 80's.

Levi was never there, unless he is saving it all for the pyrennes(lost a lot already though so I'd say no). Disco's only hope was alberto after basso left, or tommy D 
As for Vino's shades they are very easy to spot in the group which is my thinking behind the horrible color. It is a lot easier to take a quick glance over your shoulder and see the neon yellow than the faces.

Those glasses are awesome, I like 'em. Plus, if you're Vino you can wear anything.

Those glasses are Oakleys new Radar's. Sweet glasses especially the lenses which repel water and sweat. I have a pair and sweat just flows right off them, I can wear them for a 4+ hour ride and not have to wipe them off once. At leat half the tour riders are wearing them. I like the bright yellow though, maybe he was thinking they would look good with his yellow jersey.
