Great suggestions for cheaper alternatives in this thread! Does anyone knows if it's possible to get cycling sunglasses of similar quality as Oakley/100%? By cycling sunglasses I mean:

-shape (those need to be big and go over forehead so you see clearly from hunched position)

-lenses (tint, increased color contrast, preferably not polarized), anti fog -safe in case of a crash

I tried shopping around but couldn't find anything that fits as well as 165$ pair of Speedcrafts (the lenses are amazing as well). The glasses are just 4 pieces of plastic (frame, lenses, nose bridge, nose pad) but somehow it's not easy to find a decent cheaper alternative.

try payneglasses.com. I got some sports sunglasses from there. They're wraparound and have polarized lenses. They were around $25.
