Keep out of high intensity heat areas (i.e. car dashboard). For the best possible vision make sure to clean the lenses regularly with the provided microfibre bag. Protect lens coatings by using the protective case.

Great Fit, Great Vision - Poor DurabilityWhilst I still use these glasses and I really like them for their performance, I have to state that they scratch very easily. I have now been using these for about 3-4 months, and despite the best efforts of only using the supplied microfibre cloth and water, there are already some visible scratches on the coating. Furthermore, there is one spot where the coating seems to start coming off altogether.
Whilst I appreciate there will always be wear and tear with an item such as this, I would not expect it to be as apparent as in this case and to occur as quickly. Sadly, there is also no way of ordering different lenses for these, so it doesn't seem like a very sustainable concept either...

High quality, lightweight, good valueI wanted a lightweight pair of glasses to address one issue with all my previous glasses: slippage and movement. Slippage down the nose-- the grip at the back of the arms holds well and are bendable. Movement-- with previous glasses, when I dip my head to look back at my rear cassette, the glasses would lift off my nose due to gravity. These glasses address all those issues and look amazing too! High-quality clarity and tinting. I'd get more pairs.
At this price, they are actually cheaper than the current leading brands. I'd get a couple more pairs just for the color selection!

Great while they lastedI really like the color and style of the glasses. They were comfortable and fit well. Unfortunately when I took them off after a ride (about my 20th ride with them), the right arm came off with a small piece of the lens broken off. I treated them carefully and kept them in the case when I wasn't wearing them on a ride. I can accept that these frameless glasses may be more susceptible to damage, but I've only had them for a little over a month and only used them about 20 times. I've had multiple sunglasses for over a decade with no issues.

These sunglasses are seriousI've always used the big O's for optics, but decided to take a chance on these as I liked the look of them and Rapha clothing is so good. The clarity is outstanding and the waterproof finish is great. It took me a a while to get used to the chamfered edge which creates a kind of shadow at the edge of your vision. Initially I kept thinking someone like Jonas Vinegaard was following right behind me, but eventually my brain has processed the fact that it is actually me. The size of the lens is very good for coverage and best of all, using the correct one of the two supplied nose bridges, they no longer keep sliding down my nose like the oh-so-frustrating big O's do.

Frameless Light Blue Frame, Purple/Green LensI chose the "purple/green" lens. They are extremely vivid and enhance colors - especially when it is bright outside. Their benefit is reduced on dim, overcast days. Everything is sharp and because there is no frame, the view is not obstructed. They come with a handy hard case. What knocks me out is the hydrophobic treatment; it really works. By the end of every ride, my old glasses would get terribly smudged from sweat and sunscreen. Even after cleaning before the subsequent ride, it seemed I always missed a spot. With the Rapha glasses I only have to clean about once a month.

Great fit and coverage but that tint!I’ve always been an Oakley wearer but they don’t make a large coverage frame and I’m tired of seeing the top of the frame of my sutros and Radarlocks so I took a punt on these. They are very light, fit well with my helmet and don’t slip. Love the big coverage but the tint takes a good five minutes for my eyes to adjust too. The only other negative is that if I look under my arm or look through the edge of the lenses there is quite a bit of distortion. Not a problem for the majority of the time but not perfect optics like Oakley have.

Must have Cycling GlassesI got the last iteration of the Proteam Flyweight glasses and found them a bit flimsy, along with a couple of replacement lenses which cracked, fortunately i had only paid £50.00 in the sale at the time so really i was not too concerned, However with these new Proteam Rimless glasses Rapha have completely looked into all the weaknesses and come up with a fantastic,well engineered and well designed pair of Cycling glasses, the lenses are not flimsy but feel as strong as you could want without being too heavy, the frame arms are super stiff and strong also and the Dark navy colourway with the Purple/Green lens with the ROSE contrast treatment is absolutely amazing,the coating on them is sublime and water just runs straight off when its raining,I think these glasses will last last a long time and are well worth the asking price when you consider other well known branded glasses are no where near this quality. Rapha have hit the nail right on the head with these cycling glasses and they look very Proteam.

See and be safe!In the past myself and my wife have used really cheap sunglasses. By cheap I mean £3 a pair. The reason for changing was to have a pair of sunglasses that would work in dappled light as we pass under trees. These are excellent, pot holes in the shade of trees are now depicted. On a dull day visibility is still remarkably clear. Perhaps that now in our late 50’s our eyesight isn’t so good and perhaps that is partly why we have noticed such a dramatic change. The change is significantly an improvement for us.
All the lenses for the Pro Team Frameless glasses meet the UV400 standard.

Is the Nose piece the same as for the Rapha Explore sunglasses?
