Spiuk Arqus riding glasses

SO GOOD

The Arqus specs come with three lenses, which are relatively easy to fit. Each gets the same four sizeable vent slots to help dump heat and prevent fogging.

The arms have flexible tips and are curved enough to hug your head without feeling tight. The flexible nose piece is comfy and helps keep the glasses where they need to be. The field of vision is impressive and they offer a decent amount of coverage too.

NO GOOD

All we can really fault with these is the price – 135$ is still a considerable amount of cash, even if there are three lenses included.

PRICE 135$
