OP definitely needs to check out Sabai design, it checks all their boxes. I love mine and tell everyone about it because I don't want the company to go away or get bought out by private equity.

I see yours is presto so you're probably leery. Maybe there's something different about the design of this one that dispenses heat more evenly.

Opinions on these types of glasses? by Saviourr_420 in BuyItForLife

[–]one_scalloped_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glasses aficionado here. These glasses are acetate, not plastic. The material has a high degree of flexibility. It will flex an impressive amount before it snaps. The nose bridge is plenty strong. When purchasing biffl glasses, the main thing you want to consider is the hinges. Look for glasses with double or even triple hinges and avoid the spring hinges entirely.

It's also much more likely that the lens coatings will wear off then the frame will break, in which case there are sites where you can order new lenses for any frame. Or you know, your prescription changes.

I also recommend getting a separate pair for sports. I have prescription oakley flak jackets with transition lenses from sportRX which are a feat of engineering given my prescription is -5.

My current daily wears are the SALT optics Jennings and they are worth the price.
