Customers are mixed about the lighting of the sunglasses. Some mention that they darken with sunlight and lighten at night, making them perfect for riding in bright daylight or dusk. They are also quick to change from clear to dark. However, some say that the photochromatic lenses is not as dark as they would prefer, the tinting is weak at best, and the pinlock lenses lose some of their clarity at night with oncoming lights.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best riding glasses I have had!

The fit and finish are great!
This is the second pair I have used.
The lens changes from clear to dark rather quickly when exposed to direct sunlight, but not instantly, as some would think.
The foam liner around the eye openings do allow some air to circulate when your moving, stopping any fogging of the lens.
They actually remain snug to your head when moving at 80, without vibrating or jumping around.
These Fat Boys are getting hard to find now a days, but if this model was not available, I would not hesitate to buy another style of Bobster.

I purchased these Bobster Fat Boy riding glasses to block the wind from my eyes while riding my motorcycle without having to wear a full face helmet in this 100f Texas heat. I still get air leakage around the sides of the glasses but not as bad as regular sunglasses or safety glasses. The translon of the photochromatic lenses is not as dark as I would prefer.

I like this pair, but the only thing that I don't like about it is when you ride at faster speeds 60+ I felt that there was still wind buffeting underneath the shades. I don't think that it protected me as well from the wind. Other then that than it is a really good pair of shades.

4.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't get super dark, but enough to create some shade

I was a little hesitant to purchase riding glasses without trying them on, as I have a smaller sized face. While they are a bit big on me length wise (they go beyond my ears towards the back of my head), the frames have griping material at the ears, so I don't find that they slide around at all. Especially with my helmet on. They are ok at not fogging, so long as they are clean. I purchased these to help out with the severe dry eye I was getting with my contacts when I ride my scooter, they solved the problem completely. While they definitely don't get as dark as a normal pair of sunglasses, I find it enough to help out on a sunny day, without the need to remove them if a cloud or two should suddenly pass.

after about 2 years of use the foam started peeling off. and, the surface does not seem to hold any glue I've tried.

On the level of actual sunglasses - good. Not scratched up enough after 3 years to be noticeable, reasonably comfortable fit.
