Long before buying a Vespa I purchased a pair of Nike Mavrk prescription sunglasses with progressive lenses. Turns out they were excellent for blocking out the sun, and keeping wind out of my eyes at 45 MPH. However the lenses were very dark so I had to switch glasses when the sun went down, and all my regular glasses are way too small to provide any acceptable coverage for wind.
Unfortunately my beloved sunglasses fell victim to a wave runner spill in the Caribbean last week. I miss them on sunny rides to work, and they are an absolute must when scooter season comes back around.
I ordered replacement Nike sunglasses, but I need to have lenses made. So here's my question: would transition lenses in my sunglasses be acceptable? Do they get dark enough when riding into the sun as it dips just over the horizon? Or should I stick to dark glasses during the day, and buy another pair with untinted lenses for night time riding?
Before you waste your time typing, I don't want a full face shield.
