Review : Tifosi Tyrant 2.0 Sunglasses

Tifosi Tyrant 2.0 with Smoke lenses
I have always used my regular sunnies for any exercise, be it cycling, running, walking the dog, etc.  Basically, I use my expensive Oakleys for everything!  The lenses got ridiculously scratched and the frames caked in a salty residue from excessive sweating.

I replaced the lenses for some ridiculous amount of money and vowed these glasses were NOT for exercise!  So I needed a new pair of exercise sunnies.  They had to be reasonably priced - less than $100, come with multiple lenses, and of course, look good.

I found a brand called Tifosi who specialise in sports glasses.  I'd never heard of them, but they have a huge range and are my kinda style.  Unfortunately, they don't have any stockists anywhere near me.
