Honestly transition lenses are not effective enough for me yet. I want them to be entirely clear, to very dark. I’ve tried a few that could provide neither, effectively enough. Like I said before, even if they were to address the lens issue, I wouldn’t want to be wearing clear glasses all the time just to listen to my music, and I don’t want to have to carry around 2 pairs of headphones, just to own these.

I bet Akin Bacioglu was excited and giddy about posting his ‘cool’ new concept of yanko. Now after realizing its fatal flaws is now hiding in a corner.
Bit of thought in the next one mate.

Wait! Who said these were designed for humans, its assumed, but maybe they’re designed for an alien race with ear canals behind their ears.
Great concept in that case.

Well the obvious problem of slipping needs to be addressed, however I’m more worried about wanting to take my sunglasses off freely without loosing the tunes. I mean they do seem rather clear for sunglasses which would work indoors, but how effective in direct light is it? I know it blocks rays, but I’ll be blind! I have to ride public trains for example, and they go underground a lot, I wouldn’t want to have to keep swapping headphones based on location or dark/light changes. My usage between sunglasses and headphones vary to greatly for these to work for me, even if they make them stay on, and make them block light.
