Got these for Mrs. Last Tri for Christmas.

I have to say I am impressed with them for $49. Thinking of getting some for myself. Anyone have good/bad experiences with them?

Haven’t tried, them, but have heard all positives from those who have.

I have a different model. Huge on my noggin, look a little silly with no helmet, but I have great vision, no edge issues, and great contrast with them. Also, they’re light (and the model I got is heavier than those) and the absolutely never slip. Pouring rain, mega-sweat, no slip. I’ve had a pair of RPs and Smiths before these and found them just as good.

…and three lenses. Sounds too good to be true. That’s why I’m asking.

I love mine.

I have a pair of Tifosi’s. I like them. Light and good coverage. Interchangeable lenses that is easy to use and secure. “Best bang for the buck” in terms of sunglasses.

I wear my Rudy’s for everyday and my Tifosi’s for all my rides and races. That way if I lose them or crash them it’s not a big loss. I really like them though.

I have this same model, and its been a really good cheap purchase of mine. Once, they actually saved my eyes when a spear shaped branch hit right at the lense on an MTB curve. The branch slid off the lense and stuck my upper cheek, required 14 stitches. Imagine if it had been my eye! In that crash, one of the nose pieces cracked off, when I would have expected them to completely disintegrate. After that, I have continued to use them for almost a year, and am now considering a new set. I have loved mine, the price is right, and I was really considering some new rudys or something but as I think a little I think I’ll just buy another set.

Man you should tell Tifosi that story. You might get put in their advertising or a least score a free pair.

That would be cool, do companies actually do that?
How do I contact them to tell them?

I have a set, and like them a lot. Mrs. Vitus used to have a pair. They *almost *survived being run over by a car.

cool, I’ll send them a mail!

I actually prefer my pair to the various Rudy project shades I have tried - and they were less at retail than wholesale cost of the Rudys.

My favorite glasses so far:
