      I've been using them for the past 3 months :)
      Love them.
      Before the Kapvoe, I was using dirt cheap glasses from Decathlon(France)...the were crappy, not big enough, bad glass quality.
      The Kapvoe are(in my thoughts) medium quality glasses, fun to wear(I got the really colourful ones :D ) confortable to wear :)
      I cannot compare to Oakley as I never bought Oakleys for bike ride, even though I got Oakleys for car driving

    I own Tifosi photochromic shades. I paid something around $60 for them. They work and the optics are good. I also own Oakleys. Oakleys are definitely worth what they cost. I'm glad there are more affordable versions of quality glasses for riders who can't afford $200 for sunglasses (even I don't pay full price for them). Plus, once you own $200 shades, you don't just leave them anywhere. LOL I used to lose $5 shades all the time. I'm going on 12 years with the same pair of Oakleys.
    But I have no problem using my Tifosis. I don't feel like I'm missing out on much compared to my Oakleys. I won't spend less than $40 on glasses. Cheap sunglasses are worse. Those Kapvoes look good, but only time & miles will tell.
