EJThe Main Street Original Clear-to-Grey Auto-Tint Motorcycle Glasses

All the things you need to know about these glasses.
I've now purchased three pairs of these since last summer, one for a gift and two sets for myself. The first pair that came in was slightly scratched, I contacted the seller and was sent another pair immediately with no issue. Having a company that stands behind their product is a big deal to me.I started riding young and have owned countless pairs of motorcycle glasses over the last 15 years, some from cheap multi packs online, some expensive photochromic pairs ($100+) straight from dealer stores, thinking that spending more would make a big difference. These glasses block out the wind just as well as the expensive glasses (or better) I've had and far better than the cheap ones, most definitely.Things I love about these glasses - They work great to block out the wind even at highway speeds of 80+ mph. They fit my head great and they're very comfortable, whether I'm wearing a helmet or not. When I do occasionally have them on inside a helmet, they have still been durable and haven't bent or broken. For me, they work to keep wind out at multiple angles of wear, meaning for both sport bikes and cruisers. When I have them on without a helmet, I can turn my head to check my blind spot and they don't fly off. I like the style and get compliments on how nice they look, sometimes people even notice while they're transitioning. I have had ZERO issues in terms of tint transition and they tint exactly how I need them to at all times. I haven't had any issues with them fogging up at all like some of the other brands that have the foam/rubber lining while I'm sweating on a hot day. They come with a solid, fairly heavy duty box to keep them in while not in use. I don't have them out of the box unless they're on my face.Issues I've seen from other reviews and most likely how to solve them -1. People that say they don't block the wind. - It is possible that these may just not fit your face, different glasses will work for different head shapes/sizes. Secondly, you're moving at high speed in open air, there are NO glasses that exist that will block out all wind 100% of the time. This should be common sense. Other factors, were you riding with a cross wind and used them once for 5 minutes before assuming they didn't work? Give them another try on a different day of riding and maybe they'll work great.2. People saying they don't transition. - Did you give them more than 3 nanoseconds to change? They're photochromic, not magic. Give it some time. Also, I can't believe I have to say this, but don't stare directly at the sun in anticipation of watching them change... OR, do that so you can't ride a bike anymore and we're all safer on the road. Finally, if they really don't change or there's a manufacturing issue (most unlikely scenario), did you contact the seller and exchange them, or did you come here to complain and leave bad reviews without talking to them first?3. People saying they're "hard to clean." - If you have road splatter, dirt, grime or bug goo that's stuck to them, take them off and clean them right away when you stop. Don't let them sit overnight or for days at a time and then expect a dried, caked on bug carcass to come off easily, that's probably not going to happen. Once again, they're glasses, not magic. They're not hard to clean if you use a microfiber cloth or some cleaning wipes.4. People that complain about them not being durable and breaking - How do you treat your glasses? They come with a solid box, keep them in there at all times when you're not on the road. It's a small box, put the box in your riding bag. Sure if you're out and about and they keep falling off your head or you smash them in a bag, they're going to get weaker and break. Common sense and logic should be used.

All day wear
I love these glasses. I work in law enforcement and am constantly going from outside to indoors back to outside whether walking, driving, biking, or riding the motorcycle these glasses are perfect to wear all day. Only wish they transitioned a bit darker but they’re still pretty good

Riding Glasses
Just received the shades this afternoon. Firstly, the look and feel are of a pair of RayBan Wayfarers. I like the rubberized frames, lenses are of good quality, very trendy. Next, I wanted a pair of shades to wear anytime of day while riding my Harley. I've sent inside pic of the glasses clear lens, and I went outside to experience the shade transition. As you can see, they DO NOT, turn black, and hide your eyes. They transition subtle to not give you a freak mental adjustment, but, just enough to SHADE your eyes. I have black out shades, but, I have to change them when it's dusk, dark. This is inconvenient and a hassle to me, so, I am pleased so far with the transition test, just enough for to SHADE your eyes, and use inside or evening without having to pull off the road to swap out. The cost is exceptional for the quality. They fit nicely on your face, I'm not skinny, or on the heavier side, but they feel that they would have a nice flex to fit any face, boney or chunky. I read the reviews and looked at the images of others. I feel it's a good buy. The versatility of the transition lenses are very good. Very light weight, but, they feel like they could stand up to a bug punch! I've not used them riding yet, will be road testing them this coming week off of Labor day weekend. Will report back with ride images etc.

Great photochromic riding glasses
Man! These glasses should be the standard for any body, but perhaps a requirement for those riding a motorcycle.Good looking, sturdy, wind protections, clear enough for evening rides, dark enough for sunny days.Not enough good things can be said. This are a must.

Dosent work
TintReviewed in the United States on February 9, 2025The "tint" of the sunglasses is barely noticeable or none at all. I used these in very bright conditions for roughly 45minutes and was not able to notice any changes in the tint and the glasses remained completely clear.

Best sunglasses I own
Highly recommend these glasses to anyone. I bought them for riding my motorcycle but use them now in my SxS. They work great for either application! The auto tinting is amazing. Perfectly adjusts to the time of day and are clear to see through either day or night. The wind doesn’t whip around the side of them and they fit perfectly on my face. I’ve had these for over 6 months now and they are still as perfect as the day I bought them. They are durable and have held up when all others have failed by now. Definitely a great value for the money.
