I have heard from time-to-time that Sun Tiger sunglasses work well for
soaring.
Opinions either pro or con are welcomed.


I have flown with them for about 20 years. I like them. I had
prescription lenses made to fit my frames and sent them to Sun Tiger
to be tinted. Even if you don't need prescription lenses that still
lets you choose your own frames and get ones that fit. The color (or
colour) shift is significant but I have not found it to be a safety
concern.

I heard BGA took exception to them because of problems with crop
recognition but in Arizona cotton looks like cotton, and rocks still
look like rocks. When you first wear them you'll be amazed how bright
young green vegetation looks.

Check the archives. They have been discussed before.
