Liberty Sport Biker Sunglasses

Liberty Sport Biker Sunglasses Review

Marci over at Liberty Sport sent me over a pair of BikerSunglasses to ride with and evaluate. When the package arrived I opened it upand inspected everything and it was quite a package. Included were a pairBikers Sunglasses, a Liberty Sport Eyeglass Case for the glasses, a LibertySport Strap, a F8 Cleaning cloth, a pair of MagTraxion™ Magnetic Dry Eye Eyecupswith a storage pouch, and of course, instructions. All these items made this acomplete package and a great value for the price. You can even get the lensesin prescription if you need them.

Here is the Information from their website:

8-base wrap aroundlens curvature delivers excellent peripheral field of vision.  

Raised eyerim back lipprovides additional lens retention.  

Head hugging, flexibletemple design fits comfortably under most helmet designs.  

Plano frame comes withLiberty Sport Ultimate Driver or Ultimate Outdoor polycarbonate premiumperformance sun lenses:  

Passes all GlobalDriving Standards.

Hard Coat PremiumScratch Coating.

100% UVA & UVBProtection.

Comes with semi-rigidcase & adjustable strap.  

When inspecting all of the items the first thing that hit mewas how good the quality of everything was.  The glass frames themselves, felt strong anddurable, even at the hinge area. The strap was strong and had a uniqueproprietary way to attach to the frames.

I believe the lenses supplied were the Ultimate OutdoorPolycarbonate.

From their website:

Designed toaccommodate the visual needs of the outdoor enthusiast. Lens is extremelyuseful in forested and offroad environments when faced with variable lightconditions, providing low light contrast and good bright light protection.

Amber lens with bronzeflash mirror coating.

The lenses were crystal clear, accept for the tint. They seemedto brighten things up a little like blue blockers or yellow shooting lenses.For riding in the bright Texas sun I would prefer a much darker lens choice.The way that they wrapped around, they provided a pretty good field of view,though not as good as frameless ones like my Oakley’s.  However, with the MagTraxion™ Magnetic Dry EyeEyecups, they provided much more protection when riding on windy days.

Here is some information from their website about the MagTraxion™Magnetic Dry Eye Eyecups:

Eyecups made fromsoft, hypoallergenic rubber.   

Eyecups conform to theoutside curvature of the eye to trap humidity and block moisture-sappingwind.  

Removable eyecupsprovide maximum peripheral coverage.   

Magnetic eyecupssecure easily to frame using MagTraxion™ technology.   

Converts fashionablesunglasses into soothing, dryness-blocking eyewear in seconds-it's like gettingtwo frames for the price of one!   

Comes in a pair.    

 I rode with the LibertySport Biker Sunglasses for a couple of months this summer and the view andprotection was excellent.  The fit for mewas a little bit small with the frames coming under my eyebrows, which I didnot care for. I rode with them along with my half helmet and there was nointerference at all. They stayed in place real well and I did not even have to usethe adjustable strap.

   

The case was a black, semi rigid and made of nylon. Though alittle bulky, the case provided plenty of protection but not as much as a hardcase would have. Clean up of the lenses was a snap with the supplied cleaningcloth. 

After I rode with them for a while I turned them over to myson Jake to ride with them and provide feedback. As much as I liked them, He likedthem even more and fell in love with them. I believe they fit his face betterthan they did mine. He has been using them now for several months andeverything he has said about them is positive.

I would have to say that the value and quality that theLiberty Sport Biker Sunglasses provide makes them a great choice for anyonelooking for a good set of riding sunglasses.

Ride on,
