Don't buy the H.D. signature sunglasses : V-Twin Forum: Harley Davidson Forums

I never spend over 20.00 for sunglasses, but, I thought since these had H.D. on them they may last......wrong!. After 6 months the lens just fell out while I was sitting in my truck. When I took them back for exchange H.D. said they had a 1 month warranty, that was a $35.00 joke!.

That blows. You would expect a better "warranty" than that

They should have replaced them for you.
I bought a pair of HD sunglasses about 2-years ago - still going strong, but also set me back around $70.00......

I bought two pairs of the Curve's auto darkening and lightening glasses for me and my passenger a year ago. Best riding glasses I've ever had. Got them at black River Falls, WI. HD. $55 ea. I ended up buying 5 more pair for friends that tried mine and another for work. I'm EOD and these are great functioning protective glasses.

Wiley-X....Best set of riding "goggles"/glasses I have ever bought.

Add me to the Wiley-X crowd! I have two pairs of Romer II's - one with blue mirrors and the other with yellow lenses (prescription). Best damn sunglasses I have ever owned and they are even comfortable for my big head.

I've had the same Oakley prescription sunglasses for 8 years, the only hickup is when I upgrade the lenses with a new presciption...

I only wear them when riding...
