              After riding in this glasses for 6 months I am still trying to decide whether this glasses fit my face well, I guess it's kind of strange. Very light, excellent fit, perfect wind and bugs protection this glasses worth every dollar. I used them when riding at night and they provide very good visibility even when it's pitch dark. I am not sure if the lenses change to a dark color when riding in the sun, but they do provide an adequate protection against the sun when required. I am still not 100% about how they fit my face, but every time I put them on I forget about this little problem :)

              Comments about Tifosi Slip Fototec Photochromic Sunglasses:

              The feel of the glasses and fit were fine - very happy with how snug they were to my face even when wet. The downside was the lenses. The photochromic lenses were problematic. I generally move between light and dark situations much more quickly than the tint changes could keep up. I would think if you spent more time outdoors in bright light these would do. I liked the fit so much I returned them and bought the Slip Polarized version. I have owned interchangeable lens glasses before and had no problem with changing lenses when needed. Overall, the Slip frames get a big thumbs up.

                  The glasses are very nice looking and fit well. If you want to use these for eye protection at the Archery range or such, they're very nice. They just don't get very dark but they do get very light so indoor use at a range is good. Just not made for the Beach or to climb a Glacier.
