Italian Style Cycling Accessories from
Leave it to the Italians to add some flair to a otherwise boring product like sun glasses. We import these from Italy under the Dolce Vita (tm) name. All models have been tested by athletes and found to be very comfortable to wear. That said, we know every head/face is different, so I tried to show as much detail in my pictures as possible. We offer a range of styles and prices, starting at the highest tech and priced "Air Force" model with 4 lenses, down to the budget-minded "Star Fighter" or "Phanton" model with a fixed lens. We now have a Rx-able model called the 'MIG'. See images below.
Rx: Attention athletes that need vision correction! We have finally found a fashionable and functional sunglass that can be made to order by your optometrist. I asked my optometrist friend and neighbor to put these through his tests and see if they were comparable to various high-end prescription sunglasses. He made up a pair with my prescription for testing (on and off the bike). They passed our tests! Your optometrist can easily work with these to install your lens strength. They charge a nominal fee for cutting a lens, but I've found the price for basic plastic lenses to be $20-40 (not including any consultations).
Test Review: The lens holder can be removed if you are wearing contacts, so the glasses function as normal sunglasses. The three tinted lenses can be switched as desired. The tinted lens can also be 'flipped' up while wearing, if you enter a dark room or tunnel through the Italian alps. The lens wraps around and gives quite a wide field of view, so they are good for riding in a pack or race situation. With the dark lens installed, the correction lens is almost impossible to notice, so they don't look like your dad's cheesey clip-on sunglasses.

The "Mig" has technical glass with Rx-able lenses feature that can be easily removed when wearing contact lenses. Three sets of lenses: smoke, light blue and clear. Note that the Rx lenses will not come with the sunglasses, you will have to see an optometrist and have them cut a pair for you.
For all of the Dolce Vita branded sunglasses, you can find the darkness of the different lenses in the table below. 100% transmission would be a perfectly clear glass, but even glass absorbs some rays of light. Not all glasses come with interchangeable lenses, some only come with one fixed lens, so read the description carefully. No, we don't sell the lenses separately and we don't have replacement lenses if they get scratched. But think of it this way, if you do scratch the lens, you still have extras and don't need to throw out the glasses.
Summer - Very sunny days with direct sunlight
Summer/Spring - Sunny days with haze
Spring/Autumn - minimal shading
Spring/Autumn - dusk or hazzy conditions
Winter - Days with little light
All of the interchangeable lenses are made of polycarbonate shatterproof plastic and meet the ANSI Z87.1 standard for eye protection from flying objects. Which means you can wear these when shooting, using power tools, on job sites or gardening. These glasses are especially well suited to cycling, motorcycle riding, golf, tennis and triathlon. Paintball shooters should always wear eye protection with ANSI ratings. Goggles are best for this, but a wrap around sunglass would also give some protection.
