Will post up a picky tomorrow, they arrived today and for the price I thought they were top quality. Well engineered and the presentation case is something to behold.
Just need a nice sunny day to test them out.
They fit like sunglasses, but the visor rotates up so you can shield your brow with it. Hopefully it will allow you to drive without sunglasses but avoid that nasty glare when the sun is too high.

It's an interesting idea but can they help those of us that already wear glasses. The glare from the sun above the top of the windscreen is pretty uncomfortable (as far as I can remember!). I really don't want to resort to a baseball cap :-)

I tried them out today, not in the car, as its in for a touch up job on the front bumper, but in the garden. Its really bright and sunny too, but the work better than I hoped and after a few minutes, I forgot I was wearing them at all!
Not sure if you can wear them with existing glasses, but I do wear glasses for reading, not driving, so will see if its possible to combine the two later!

Here's the opposite to your minimalist sun visor.
We have lots of Mainland Chinese here who like to wear these things. They look like they are going to
do some welding but they are just trying to stay as pale as possible. :pinch:

I wear glasses so tend to use a baseball cap. Has the added advantage of keeping the sun from burning my thinning noggin

Well I tried them with normal reading glasses on, mine are not too bulky with a wire frame and they will both sit quite comfortably on my head,
So it may be possible to wear both at the same time, maybe not if you have those big FO style eighties glasses though!
