Home Depot, some other hardware stores have a variety. Check their websites.

These ones are discontinued, but they are the ones that I like for daytime when not raining. I got two pair, gray and brown tints.

I have both clear and tinted. Clear works great for nighttime or low light conditions and of course tinted for sun. ....
I prefer yellow for dark or rainy conditions over clear, I have tried clear too.



Since my GPS is pretty close to my eyes when I am looking at it, I got stronger ones than I would normally use for other activities. I think mine are 2.5 strength. Touring, I am looking at the map on my GPS screen at times and it is a small screen.
