Anyone have a go-to set of shades they love for riding, who also happen to have a high nose bridge? Having a tough time finding a pair that don't end up sitting up super high because of this honker I've got. Was looking at the Oakley Sutro, but after finally trying them on at a store recently, I found the angles of the lenses don't really fit my face that well. They do have a relatively deep nose bridge though, which felt nice compared to others I've tried. I also ordered a pair of the Tifosi Sledge but had to return them because they too sat up a bit too high.

Bonus points if they come with a good set of all-light condition lenses.

I also have a large nose. What I have found to work best for me is Smith and Wesson shooting glasses. They fit my face well, come in several options for tints and lens colors and are fairly inexpensive. I have 3 different pairs, 2 tinted differently from each other and 1 clear.

Many Tifosi models have adjustable bridges. My Veros do.

FYI, some sunglasses made for road cycling intentionally sit a little high since that's where you're looking when you're tucked into the drops position.

That's actually a great idea, thinking outside the box 👍

Damn I honestly didn't even think of that, but makes sense.

Hopefully the Sledge's didn't have that feature or I'm going to feel kinda stupid for sending em back.

Check out all the tinted safety glasses at a welding supply. Be prepared to spend about $8 for the good ones.

Eh, they don’t advertise it so it’s their fault. I only figured it out because I started wearing a pair as casual sunglasses and couldn’t figure out why I looked so weird.

I came accross them in a Sports Authority and decided to try them. I think they cost me $12 a pair and have been using them for almost 10 years now
