You could also try ordering a pair with a "saddle bridge," or buy a "bridge strap" for the current frames. My problem is a thin nose, so nose pads have to be adjusted carefully. I tried installing a "bridge strap" on my favorite Ralph Lauren Polo frames and the problem was cured.
Now I'm looking for an affordable source where I can order bridge straps by the dozen... WHL On Feb 12, 12:12 pm, RedStickHam <[email protected]> wrote: > On Feb 10, 7:52 pm, "J.
