You’ve seen these bad boys before. Whether in vintage photos from the 50s and 60s during their all-time popularity, or on Bruce Willis in Moonlighting, half frame sunglasses are as classic as they get. Our single, unisex style in this shape needs no peers: the Avila can do it all, and then some. Featuring metal detailing with colored lens options, the Avila elevates the category of half frame sunglasses as an eye-catching look for women and men (and those above the binary). Tell us what the product is for and who it's aimed at. What do the manufacturers say about it? How does that compare to your own feelings about it? John has been writing about bikes and cycling for over 30 years since discovering that people were mug enough to pay him for it rather than expecting him to do an honest day's work.

Half-rim glasses have a bold upper frame while the bottom of the lenses is uncovered. But the reverse could also be true. Sometimes, the frames may cover only the bottom of the lens. They make an impression on people even before you utter a word. While choosing glasses for your face shape can elevate your look, how people will perceive you depends on the frame style you’re wearing. Tester Lara writes: “The frames are made from lightweight Grilamid TR-90 nylon material and the lenses are scratchproof and shatterproof polycarbonate. They come in a massive array of frame/lens colour combos. The bottle green/smoke lens option I tested has a mid-range tint, making it dark enough for casual summer use without being so dark you can't use it in slightly lower light too. The Glare Guard lens coating does a good job of reducing glare nicely. The frames and nose-piece are non-adjustable, but I found them comfortable with or without a helmet on, and the subtle shaping of the arms kept them secure to my head without gripping too tightly or interfering with my ears or helmet if I was wearing one. Tester Stu writes: “The fit is good with enough pressure to hold them in place with your head down or in your helmet vents when you're going for that pro look. There is nothing worse than watching your glasses go underneath a following car's wheels. The refraction of oncoming headlights was my only issue which in the winter months would see me struggling a bit as all of my riding is done in the dark at rush hour.Featuring a half frame, the dhb PhotoChromatic sunglasses offers protection from sunlight, wind and debris and has a lens filter category 3 which is heavily tinted for use in bright sunlight. These glasses are popular among the hipster crowd. When you wear a full-frame, people will think that you are opinionated, bold and trendy. Those days are gone. Eyewear manufacturers have raised their game for both quality and style, and enforcement of standards means you can rely on even cheap cycling glasses to protect your eyes from potentially damaging ultra-violet. Glasses are much more than just a means of improving your vision, and our range of designer half-rim glasses includes fantastic frames from internationally acclaimed designers. From ultra-trendy to chic and classic, you'll find half-rim glasses that perfectly accentuate your individual look. Our collection includes frames from designers such as:

I have experienced some minor misting, but this was cured by adjusting the glasses' position and moving them away from my face. Fit/comfort The half-frame has the sophisticated air of full-frames but works just fine in casual settings as well. This is why they are considered to be a versatile accessory that’s perfect for every occasion. He was heavily involved in the mountain bike boom of the late 1980s as a racer, team manager and race promoter, and that led to writing for Mountain Biking UK magazine shortly after its inception. He got the gig by phoning up the editor and telling him the magazine was rubbish and he could do better. Rather than telling him to get lost, MBUK editor Tym Manley called John’s bluff and the rest is history. The arms are less tenacious than some designs, but have gone unnoticed, with no hint of discomfort even on day rides, keeping the glasses exactly where I've wanted them.The Tifosi Swank Single Lens Sunglasess are genuinely useful on the bike, but also don't look out of place mooching down to the pub or coffee shop. Think fashion shades that you can wear on your bike that will still protect your eyeballs. These glasses were first designed to slash some weight off your eyewear. And now that we have better material options both in lens and frame, these glasses have become super lightweight and comfortable.

Off-road, they tended to bounce around a little – worth noting if you're fond of mixed terrain riding or take towpath cut-throughs on your commute – but they are geared towards road riding. Durability They're not as big as some in my collection, but I'm pleased to report I've had no issues with rain, wind, dirt or grit sneaking past.
