Ordered some ally cats in the new Emerald colour, as I really like it. However putting it on with my usual riding outfit they just looked out of place. So I asked for an exchange on a completely different colour scheme, which melon optics did no problem, which I did not think would be possible due to how customisable the product is. And melon optics then sent me a returns label straight away. And the product is great too! I never write reviews so this review speaks for itself!
Great pair of glasses, very comfortable, no restricted field of view, barely notice I have them on. Thought I would be wearing the low light lenses the majority of the time but the red chrome lenses have been great even on overcast days through tree cover.
These are ace. Lenses are sweet and having tried a lot of riding glasses these ones make you look the least of a plonker.
What can I say? Apart from the Alleycats are the best glasses I’ve ever used for mtb...and I’ve tried a lot! The quality of the frame and components are brilliant. Then there’s the lenses...absolutely faultless! They don’t fog, they don’t move, they just get on with the job and look so sick while doing it.
Do yourself a favour and get yourself a pair, you won’t regret it.
