Look snazzy. More stylish than goggle type foggles or a hood. Flexible and easy to put on under headphones. Comfortable to wear.

Pros
Light set of glasses. Great to have the wrap around feature so there is no need to put a map on the edge of the windshield.
Cons
shipping was almost half the cost of the glasses. I suppose with some planning and buying more from Sporty's that could have been less of a percentage.

Just what I needed! My instructor had the clear foggles, but the glare from the sun was killing me! The tinted foggles I received let me concentrate on my flying instead of trying to dodge the sun!

You can see a little bit out the sides but I haven't found a pair that doesn't allow this. Very comfortable.
