itguy Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 Hi all I've decided that I need to get some goggles rather than struggling on with my old clear M-frame oakleys I've got left over from my old mountain biking days. Are there any shops that sell Wiley's so I can try on etc before I buy? (midlands preferrably) If not, where can I get them mail order? I saw the bulk-buy on blatchat but I guess I've missed the boat on that one as it was at the start of March. Cheers Will. Quote
Richgm Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 Never used the company but a quick google gave me this http://www.stoppa.co.uk/acatalog/Wiley_X_Ballistic_Eyewear.html In Nottingham so not too far from you. Quote
stu999 Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 Will, if you are going to Stoneleigh (and can wait a week), you are welcome to try mine before you buy. I think they are great... Stu. Quote

itguy Posted April 24, 2005 Author Posted April 24, 2005 That would be great Stu - thanks, not sure which day I'm going yet, are you there for both? Quote
a4gom Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 I'll be there one of the days and I have the SG-1's so you could try them as well. I like the SG-1's but they are a little big for me. I ordered mine from the states so couldn't try them, I'd definately recomend try before you buy. There not the cheapest glasses on the shelf. Quote

Why not the SG-1 ones (on the completely unscientific analysis that they're more expensive, therefore better)? Quote
a4gom Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 I'm probably going to get some XL-4's, still adult glasses but 'built for the smaller face'. Unfortunately our trip to the states has been postponed this year so I will have to wait till next year unless someone starts stocking them over here. Quote
stu999 Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 That would be great Stu - thanks, not sure which day I'm going yet, are you there for both? Yup, both days mate. Quote
higgsti Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 if your thinking of wileys as a fathion statement forget it they simply do a good job of protecting your eyes .i would recommend them and especially the rust coloured lenses:0 Quote
Muttleys V8 Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 I have talked to the guy who is the only importer of Wileys in the UK. He's based up in Scotland and gives good discount to 7 owners (about 45%), send me a PM and I will pass on his details. He stocks all the range and if they don't suit your face, he will exchange them. Steve Quote
