All the glasses in the test look dead cool however with a   -7  prescription lens  you can't have wraparounds of any description. 
Kontrolsports have inserts that take upto -10 in inserts for wraps.

I believe Kontrol has their sunglasses made in the same factory as Rudy and they are much cheaper, perhaps you could look at these. The are found at Kontrol

As I wear prescription lenses I always run in sunglasses ( unless its dark ) Does anyone know of a manufacturer who makes "sports" type prescription sunglasses ?

Kontrolsports makes prescription sunglasses albeit with click in inserts and I believe they have a night vision yellow lens.Kontrolsports

Thanks mercury - I take it that photo is the specscavers ones?

These are the ones I have found:

If anyone has tried these or any others and they think they are great, I'd be interested to know. I have qutie a strong prescription so the frame would have to be pretty light.

They may look strange but they are quite useful, at least I look good in them rather than my normal glasses, I bought mine from Kontrolsports, although you have to get your prescription fitted yourself with an optician (I believe they'll recommend one) I don't think I paid more than £80 for mine all inKontrol Rx Sunglasses
