Fabulous!

Great sunglass to get through the late afternoon glare and into the early onset of dusk. Stay put. Don't fog up. Highly recommend.

Great Glasses

The glasses are nice and comfortable. The lens has an odd quirk of refracting the red wavelengths of some car headlights so they end up duplicated in my vision.

Fit and tint

I was worried that these would be too tinted in the shady trails and too bulky for my face. I was in for a real treat once I opened the package. They fit my face really well not too bulky and not too small. Perfect fit. And the tint is really nice. I wouldn’t recommend for looking into direct sunlight but for switching between shady trails and sunny open areas these are the perfect glasses. I’m so happy with the purchase!

So glad to hear the FixiePhenom is a perfect fit for your needs out on the trail! We really appreciate your feedback!

Great fit for riding

Bought these for riding in changing light conditions and overall eye protection. From open bright areas to deep woods they have been great! Great for hotter days when goggles don't allow enough ventilation.

The perfect choice, most days!

Totally versatile, lighter weight, great for small-medium size faces.

OK, so I have a lot of Optic Nerve shades, and revel in having larger performance shields like the polarized Fixie line, and amazing casual options like the lifestyle styles, but I choose these guys most days.

Here’s why: if there’s any chance of variable lighting, like the sun may go in and out, or I am riding or running in the woods, then it’s utterly invaluable to have photochromatic lenses. Nuff said.

If you’re choosing between these and the Fixie PHENOMS, these are much lighter weight and have a slimmer profile, which can be clutch if you have a helmet that pushes large frames down. My faves!

Hi Amy!

Thank you so much for your review of our FixieBLAST Photochromic sunglasses! We are thrilled to hear that they are the perfect choice for you on most days. We agree that their versatility, lightweight design, and fit for small to medium faces make them a standout option.

We also appreciate your comparison to our other Optic Nerve shades and how these are your go-to for variable lighting situations. The photochromic lenses truly are invaluable in those situations, and we are glad they have been a game-changer for you.

Thank you again for choosing our sunglasses and for taking the time to share your feedback. We hope you continue to enjoy them on all your adventures!

Best,

These are awesome

Started wearing these while I play pickleball. They are so light I forget I’m wearing them. The frameless design doesn’t interfere with the field of vision. I highly recommend them.
