indyz 1 #1 October 16, 2001 I'm still on student status, but I'm looking at my own set of goggles because the student ones are occasionaly smudged, and god knows how many people have worn them before me. Plus, they seem pretty cheap. Anyway, I wear glasses, and the glasses, helmet, kroops-style goggle combo can get pretty uncomfortable. I was wondering if anybody knows about any Torsan style goggles that you can have presciption lenses put in. Barring that, how safe would it be to wear my cheapie prescription sunglasses without the goggles over the top?--Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #2 October 16, 2001 I have been wearing basketball glasses for the last 2,000. Most of those jumps were with students, so I have been smacked in the head more times than I care to remember. The basketball glasses only came off my face once, during a PFF evaluation dive. I flipped the "student" stable, and just as I was starting to figure out the next step, the elastic strap around the back of my head flipped my glasses back into place!These basketball glasses are similar to racquet ball glasses, with thick clear plastic frames, just a bit bigger. The larger frames keep most of the wind out of my eyes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gman 0 #3 October 16, 2001 Have you tried looking at www.sportrx.com ? They make goggles with prescription lenses, they don't make torsan style goggles but you may find something that you like. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
