With a larger silhouette than many of the cycling glasses here, the Smith Pivlocks have a more feminine shape that could work off the bike as well as on it. With the great coverage you also get excellent ventilation and top of the range protection from the elements. A secure fit is ensured with soft TPE at the nosepiece and temple pads, and the lens has a hydrophobic coating to repel water, dirt and grease as well as providing 100% protection from harmful UVA, B and C rays.

Price: £113, available from Smith Optics.
