X-KD's Pacific Coast Sunglasses Black Frame/Grey Polarized Lens, (1019)

I wouldn't change a thing. As KDs are known for they fit very comfortably close to my face. I think this helps keep more of the sunlight from coming in around the edges. The X LDs like these have a larger frame than the original. The original KDs are too small for me. I'm about 5'11". They have the right "darkness" and are polarized. Good looking glasses too.

Thes are great, the X-KD is a decent size and my first pair. I'm concerned how small the regular ones would be (20% smaller, duh) and face wise, they would probably look like reading pairs. Now, I'm used to aviator style glasses so this took some getting used to as it does restrict field of view some. The polarizing is spot on, very good and surprised at the clarity for the price.Now, one caveat is that this does prefer a particular nose type - typically white. Due it resting flat on the nose, it blocks incredible amount of wind though if you don't have that subtle bridge at the top of the nose, you'll notice that it will slide down until the nose widens. Is it racist by design? No. The original designer, designed it for his nose and then mass produced. Obviously this should be a factor in a helmet though my be an issue with 3/4 and half designs.In the end, I'll probably buy another soon and keep replacing frequently worn/chipped riding pairs with casually used pairs.

I've thoroughly enjoyed my X-KD 1019s. I have a pretty large head and they still fit me great. The polarization is great for driving and is also handy if you spend much time around water. My only complaint is that one of the screws chronically loosens itself until it nearly falls out, but that's nothing a little thread locker can't fix. Other than that, the frames have been really durable, and the lenses haven't scratched much even though I carry them in my pocket.

Had purchased a pair of the original size, and like their reviews say, they're tiny. Like child-size tiny, it's a bit of a joke that they sell them as adult sunglasses. I really like this style, so I was happy to find the larger size. Well, I need something between the two, because these are super-wide. The lens size is perfect, but the arms are so wide that they won't stay on my face.It's funny, I think Pacific Coast saw the complaints about the original size and thought "okay jerks, try these on, muahahahahaa!"I've heated the bridge to bend them in a bit, but it didn't hold. So, I added rubber bands to the hinges. That's a bummer, because they require constant fidgeting and are ugly. Dang it. Every pair of off-the-rack sunglasses fit me fine, but not these.So, there you have it. The quality is okay (they're just plastic sunglasses), the polarized lenses are nice, and I like the style, but I'm giving three stars because Pacific Coast doesn't seem to have access to a normal human head. Also, this is just kind of silly, but the inside of one arm says "The original biker sunglasses" and the opposite arm says "made in Taiwan" ...oh yeah baby, bikers love Asian imports!

I have purchased three pairs of these and have had an issue on all three pairs with one of the side pieces being warped. I really like the product but wish they were a little higher quality. For the money, they are definitely worth it. To fix the warping/twisting (as it has been called in other reviews), I heat up the side with a hair dryer and place it under some heavy books for an hour or so. This seems to work well.I will continue to purchase these but with the expectation that they will need to be straightened out (I know this is not ideal). The only area of improvement that I would recommend for the company is to have a little bit stronger quality control process.Great product for a cheap pair of motorcycle glasses. The average size head should purchase the X-KD because the standard KD's are too small (I purchased a pair and gave them to my girlfriend. They fit her well).

Fit great on my big head. Liked the originals, but they felt like child's glasses on my face and left marks. I'm not a motorcycle rider, so I can't speak to how well these work inside a helmet and such, but they are great as every day sunglasses and the polarization is very nice.

Love the style and fit of these, mine showed up bent like many reviews here and online Google search.. I still gave them 5 stars, because the fix was super easy, 60 secs with a blow dryer gently twist and use a table as a level and there perfect.. Would be interested in playing more for a similar style better quality, if anything knows of a brand

They somehow keep the wind out of my eyes when riding my Harley, while "aerodynamic" glasses won't. Cool enough to be seen in, and cheap enough that you won't cry if you lose them. I've gone through many pairs after losing my Ray-Bans!
