Where to store your sunglasses whilst cycling

[BoerBiker]

Thought I'd get some input from you pro's.

 

I'm battling to find a place to store my sunglasses when I want to take them off. I've tried putting them onto my helmet through some of the vents, but it hurst my noggin. I've put them in my shirts back pocket, but I'm already storing my weed there ;-) I'm not too keen on a strap and have it dangling around my neck.

 

Any innovative ideas from you guys?

 

Thanks

I usually like them best on my face but if I am going to take them off I hook one arm of the shades to the top of the back of my shirt, by my neck (if that makes any sense) haven't had a pair go missing yet and they are out of the way:)

I press the ear pieces into the vents in my helmet. On the from of the helmet.

Dankie manne....I was thinking more in the way of super glueing a laundry peg on my helmet and use that to clip on the handles, or a crocodile clip.....think I just gave myself a couple of ideas. Probably going to look like crap.

My mother has a system that she is wanting to get into the market.

 

Will get info on it soon (she had just moved down from Durban, so things are in transit or storage right now)

 

Essentially it is a magnetic disc that you can affix to your kit and then securely clip your sunglasses to. This could get fixed to sorts kit out civvy kit pending what you want to use it for obviously.

Shot Hairy, sounds decent.

One I use is to take the glasses off and hang them on the back of my neck with the arms resting on shoulders.

Slide them on from the back of your head.

My oakleys don't fit any vents securely in my mask mojito, so I fold the arms down and hang a single arm in the back of the collar of my cycle jersey. Works a charm and doesn't pick up too much misting in the summer. Was worried about it moving around but the seem to stay put quite well.

Zipper pocket in my shirt.

Oakleys fit perfectly into the vents of Giro helmets :-)

i only trust a string around my neck or I keep it on, especially when mountain biking

Its helmut and sunglasses dependent!

 

Back of the head under straps work for me.

Get clear lenses, then you don't need to take them off. Also means you'll get less bugs and muck in your eyes.

Fold the arms of the sunglasses in and then you hook it onto the back of your cycling shirt/jersey behind your neck. Like some people like to do with casual sunglasses on their t-shirts in front of the neck/chest, just hook it behind.
