Been using this nose protector. https://nozkon.com/

Using smaller memphis shades hellcat shield, full face helmet with shield removed with the noxkon attached to safety sunglasses.
 Haven't had any problems with the wind moving it around or the glasses so far.

using this one which can be trimmed for a custom fit.

Post needs close up shot of you wearing it!

I remember Frank Smoak wearing fake glasses with a big nose
and mustache before he'd ride in my Mini Cooper...

Sunblock.  I would not put anything on my expensive prescription (all wire) glasses.  Though those might be OK, they might not.

I googled images and almost everyone had hard substantial plastic glasses frames to mount them to.  This might fly them off my face at speed on a bike.. in a half helmet anyway.  No chance to stop on the freeway and run between the cars to retrieve them either.  Grin


Wires.


I have a hard enough time keeping my glasses undamaged as it is.

The leather ones really need studs, and maybe a little gremlin bell.

And if you chewed all the flavor out of your gum (I always chew gum riding), you could save it up under there for later (and glue it down).

I wonder if one could get a snap button piercing on either side of one's nose, and just snap the nose-guard in place without involving glasses? Talk to your local body piercing shop, Jess!  No, I don't need to be a guinea pig for this, as I have a Transitions photochromatic lens on my helmet.

No thanks Gryph, the only piercings I have are accidents with the tools and power equipment.
