    I have a pair of Livestrong Paths and can't fault them in any way. You can try mine on for fit next Wed if you want.

    I have the Radar Range you can try on if you like... I also have these Commits you might want to try on...

    How about a Pitch lens on the left and a Path on the right? Two looks for the price of one!

    Got the Flak Jackets. Better for a smaller face.

    How are the flack jackets for viewing when in the drops? Does the frame get in the way? Is there enough coverage of the eyes?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,318 ✭✭✭✭Raam


    Bummer, the choice had been made, now these flack jackets have thrown a spanner in the works

    The Radars are better in that respect but I don't really notice them blocking my view, possibly because I wear glasses anyways.

    The XJ lenses have good coverage.

    They are much better for peripheral vision where my Minutes fell down, but that's no big surprise.

    EDIT: Try them on in a shop and buy on Ebay...

    EDIT2: I went with the Flak Jackets mostly from a fashion point of view. The Radars looked ridiculous on me.

    I have the Radar Pitch, you're welcome to try them on. Most people have the Paths, and to be honest I do think they look a bit better. I went for the Pitch though, the Path just didn't give me enough coverage for some reason.

    RAAM,

    I have the FLAK and obviously I've a small head also.

    The lens on the ones I have are a different shape to the one in the picture above.

    Alot of glasses don't suit me because of my skinny yet beautiful face and these suit me fine.

    The one thing i will say if your buying buy the path lens as the the pitch is huge


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 279 ✭✭stevie_b


    i read that if you find the bottom part of glasses touch your cheeks, then the path are the ones to go for. the pitch are for skinnier faces (apparently).
    i'll be getting a pair soon. www.cyclestore.co.uk are the cheapest i've seen so far for anyone interested.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,584 ✭✭✭✭tunney

    Can't make a decision without posting on the forum -- pot kettle black I'd say....

    Raam, can't remember what you thought of them, but my ones were path that you tried on. I think they suit a "slimmer" face better.
