Best Glasses ever
I‘ve already owned a pair of Kingpin-glasses and lost them. Couldn’t emagine a life without them. Great price for loads of style and highend glasses!

Well worth the money
Bought a kingpin bundle in the Christmas sale, got three lenses with it and wow, well worth the money. The optics a really good and the variance in the lenses I got is evident so should be covered for all riding condition.

Honestly the best riding glasses I’ve ever used!
The photochromic lens on the Kingpin is pure witchcraft. One second you’re blasting through bright sunshine, the next you’re in a dark forest tunnel — and somehow you can still see everything! The lenses adapt so fast! The frames are flexible enough to survive a pub bench stress test (ask me how I know). Also picked up the low-light lens for night rides and it’s brilliant. Fit’s spot on, function’s top-notch, and they look cool enough that I might wear them even when I’m not riding. Even talked a few of my mates into buying them. Nick Shack Wrap

From Sunshine to Shade—The Kingpins Just Work
I’ve been using the Melon Optics Kingpin glasses for just under a month, and they’ve already become an essential part of my mountain biking kit. The fit is spot on, being secure without any pressure points and the lightweight design means I forget I’m even wearing them. The fact the lens that adapts to changing light has been a game-changer. Whether I’m out in bright Scottish sunshine, or weaving through dark forest trails, the transition feels seamless and keeps my vision clear and comfortable. No more swapping lenses mid-ride or compromising visibility. What stands out most is how the glasses balance performance with comfort. They’re clearly designed with riders in mind, and it shows in the small details—fit, clarity, and durability.

Kingpin is KOM
From day 1 I got these Kingpins(yes I got 2 of em. .LOL) it’s always been sick. Fits great, lenses are wicked. And the after sales service was next level. I had an issue with one of my Zeiss lenses and Christian sort it out like a charm. FYI …. I only have Melons for my rides now Kingpins for Trails and Diablos for Bikeparks Now itchin’ for more…Cheers Mates

Comfortable to wear, but not nearly dark enough lenses
