Sun glasses & headsets
I have upgrade from my old David Clarks to Harmon Kardon noise canceling headset . It's really sensitive to sun glass arms . I see Flying Eyes are designed with paper thin arms but start at $160 . What are others doing ???

Do they offer different ear seals? I wear plain $10 sunglasses with my Bose and there's no difference in sound/noise cancellation with or without the glasses on.

Agreed. I wear the Zulu's over my thick glasses as well. No issues.

I wear Serengetti sunglasses which have flat arms and when I used my Bose headset, no problems. I now use Clarity Aloft headsets and definitely no squeeze problems.

For years I got those titanium flex frames and really worked well with my David Clark noise cancelling head sets.

I have wire type glasses. Works great with ANR headsets. These drop in and work well. Not stylish, but a simple solution.

Years ago David Clark used to sell thin foam diamond shaped wedges, with a hole thru them (the long way). Put your eyeglass ear piece thru the hole, the foam padded and sealed against your head and the headset.

Maui Jim
I have Maui Jim Peahi which are approx 5mm (~.25") thick on the triggers which are very comfortable under the Bose A20's.
They are significantly more expensive but once you've flown with them you probably won't fly with anything else.

Bolle Silium
If you don't like the glare on the back of aviator style lenses and prefer a wrap around design, I found a pair that have thin arms and fit comfortably under my DC H13.4 headset.
