Used and Abused | Liberty Sport Adventure 1 Sunglasses
Liberty Sport was founded in 1929 as a manufacturer of plastic and metal ophthalmic frames and has been banging out both regular spectacles and all sorts of sport frames. I had the luck of getting a set of Liberty Sport’s Adventure 1 glasses and have been running them for a few months now when I ride. The rectangle frame and large temples block almost all of the road wind even at tripe-digit speeds. I also liked the arms of the glasses, they fit really well under half, 3/4, and full-face helmets. The 100 percent UVA and UVB polycarbonate lenses also had a nice shade of tint, which was not too dark or too light and even worked well in the evening time.
I am really hard on my riding glasses and seem to sit on and drop just as many of them, if not more, than they actually sit on my face. These glasses have stood up to my abuse, fit well, and didn’t look that bad on my ugly mug.
–JGH.
