Smith Optics Overdrive riding glasses

Smith Optics Overdrive riding glasses

SO GOOD
The flexible arm tips and two-position adjustable nose piece help to make the Overdrives some of the comfiest specs on test.

They're also the only full-frame glasses here, but luckily the deep lenses provide a good amount of coverage and you barely notice the lower part of the frame. Three lenses are included in the case and, thanks to Smith's innovative design, they can be changed with no faff in seconds. Lens clarity is good too.

NO GOOD
Although you get three lenses, 230$ is still a lot of cash. There's no venting on the lenses either, which means they fog up quicker than some others.

PRICE 230$
