I see a lot of replies to this post but my personal choice are Sea Specs
www.seaspecs.com they are well priced and you can get 3 for the price if 2 over the internet.
The lenses are polarized, they come with a strap at the back to keep them on and in all sorts of colours. They are hard wearing, comfortable and look cool.
You will need to try a few different ones on to make your final choice.

Kurtis work very well for me and are only glasses that haven't fogged up on me/fit my face with my flat asian nose:)
Surfshades is also a great polarized sunglass company. Never tried them but they have exhibited at the Pismo Beach kitexpo for last few years and locals who have purchased them are pretty happy with them.

Today was my first session with Kurtis sunglasses. They are soft, fits under helmet relly well, no fogging. Never used better one. Worth they price.

Hi,
I´ve no read all the answers but Decathlon is a cheap and very good option in my opinion. You have a lot of models. I lost a pair of sunglasses every year becasuse of crashes and they are good, cheap and you´ll find a modelnyou like for sure.

I've used the Kurtis for a couple of years. Honestly, I don't like their look but they are super comfortable, stay in place, and float really well if they come off. They also fit really well under a helmet or over a neoprene hood for winter kiting. I'm also terrible about abusing my gear and they are still in good condition.
