Finding the Right Glasses

Looking to invest in some quality shooting glasses with interchangeable lenses. Wiley X has my attention, but none of the stores around Paducah carry them.

Any tips on determining which model is right for me? I like the sound of an adjustable pair, seeing that I have a round face with a bridge my nose.

Oakley M Frames or Half Jackets w/ Dark, Amber and Clear lenses are my two recommendations

I've got a set of ESS Suppressors (I think they are now owned by Oakley). They came with two different head pieces (one pretty standard one and one that's really thin with a head strap for less bulk under ear muffs) and clear and tinted lenses and a hard case. They've been good for me for the past year or so. Think I got them on a deal for less than $50, but that was a while ago.

I wear either wiley x valors or my oakley flak jackets, the wiley x's are cheaper by far to buy replace and buy more lenses (16$ vs 60$ for oakley lenses). I prefer my Oakleys but I don't wear them shooting much anymore. I usually wear the valors, I prefer the look of the oakleys in my civilian attire.

My flack jackets were my shooting/everything sunglasses for years. The lenses are scratched to hell now and it's like $90 for new polarized lenses, so they're on a shelf

I use the $99 Bob Allen SG6000 same as costlier Hy-Wyd glasses and the 6 base lenses interchange
