WE SAY...

A bargain multi-lens package with slightly tricky lens switching

LOWS Clunky lens switch

The Omnicron’s shield lens is smaller than most at 42mm at its deepest, which makes them well suited to smaller faces. The curvature of the lens closely wraps around the face and the substantial arms have plenty of spring, so they grip very well with little movement even when riding on rougher surfaces.

The arm tips are rubberised, which also aids grip, and the softtouch nosepiece has plenty of adjustment too. They come with three different lenses and switching between them is a case of sliding a latch on the inside of the frame, which releases the lens. It’s not the easiest way to switch, but after you’ve changed them a few times it eases up.

On the bike the close fit and grippy frame work well at both shielding you from the wind and staying in place.

The lens does tend to fog around the nose bridge when you’re working hard in warmer weather. However, lens clarity is good and the spherical curvature means little in the way of distortion.

The Ominicrons offer great shield lens coverage, clean styling and dimensions to suit smaller faces. A good-value pair of glasses with three lenses for all conditions and year-round eye protection.
