If you wear sunglasses skiing, where did you get them from?

I'm looking for some for me and ds's. I want them to be relatively gap free around the edge for maximum protection but am struggling to find anything.

Any recommendations would be gratefully received!

Mine are by a brand called Riders which sounds a bit Jilly Cooper but they stay put, block the run, look ok. They were from either snow & rock or Ellis Brigham but expect available elsewhere.

I wear ray bans or Maui jims; both are great for glare but they aren't full wraparound so I wear them elsewhere eg for driving.

Oakley are fantastic I always used them for skiing, windsurfing, sailing and they are pretty bullet proof.

Bloc. They do very good polarised lenses without a designer name price tag.

Goggles are the only things that don't look ridiculous with helmets!!
