    Without spending a fortune can anyone recommend a good pair of Polaroids

    I'm using a pair eye level amber lense and being honest they are terrible and every time I go out I tell myself I will change

    I prefer an amber lense if that matters

    I don't want to spend too much as chances are I will break them

    Say 50e budget

    I got myself fox sunglasses with removable lenses.... brown..yellow...grey.. they are superb... polarized ofc... so depending the weather i can adjust them to my needs aka sun...rain...cloudy ..etc


    I paid 30e....have them over 2 years..

    Got them of ebay.....cheapest from germany but there is an uk seller as well...


    Got you a link....honestly superb for the money.... just keep the lenses protected...as they are plastic not glass.... prone to scratch easy

    These are currently available at a great price... have had several pairs and very happy with them (but keep losing them!).

    The lenses comes with plastic pouch that fit the case itself... look its just an option.... they are budget sun glasses.....

    Best of luck.


    I do a lot of canal small and/or lake spinning.... and polarized is the only way to go....so long story short....if i had black glasses in rain or cloudy weather it would not suit the purpose while with fox glasses i only replace the lense and i am not saying its 100% ideal but for sure more natural then with black only.... but thats my 2c...other people may have different taste....again good luck.

    Argos do a cheap set of Dunlop ones that are OK, keep an eye on Lidl and Aldi websites, they do them for a fiver now and again

    I use Polaroids - great lenses!
    Check some of the big chemist chains.
