Re: Yates back with Wiley X in '08

Anybody have experience with Wiley prescription sunglasses? I am skeptical that a decent correction can be placed on a lens with significant curvature (ie. not referring to the flat prescription inserts). My suspicion is they do it at the expense of peripheral vision -- you probably see well only when looking straight through the lens. This could be a handicap for driving, cycling, tennis, etc. But I am only speculating here. Someone with experience should correct me -- then I will let Wiley correct my astigmatism!

This is AWESOME!!! I was worried that Jim wouldn't have sponsorship for next season. Jim and Toni are such classy people, and I'm doubly happy that I won't have to drop by their pit in Pomona and thank them for the memories. Thank you Wiley-X.

I would get with Jim himself..... i was told by a few of the people at Wiley X that Jim glasses are all done to his prescription... i had a list of what all glasses he wears from them.. and one or two were the rounded lens verions they offer.... i will keep digging and see if i can find the list again....
