I agree. I think the people claiming that the $10 AM/PM sun glasses are equally as good are kidding themselves.
Nice, expensive sun glasses are well worth the money. I've owned many, many pairs of cheap sunglasses and the difference between them and My Oakley's are night and day. The Cheapies would start to give me a headache after an hour or so of use. If i were to go to Disneyland, out to a game or anything outdoors for a prolonged period of time, i couldnt wear those cheapies. I can wear my Oakleys all day and forget they are even on my face.
The cheap one's don't sit right, sometimes sit crooked on your face. The arms don't close right, causing the cheap paint to wear off from extended opening and closing. They don't fit nearly as well.
I can go out and PLAY sports with out my Oakleys falling off. My GF has sat on my shades so many times i thought i'd have to kill a bitch, but the arms just snap back into place. And don't they have some sort of warranty on there Lens?
It's just like buying shoes. sure, you can go to Payless and drop $15.00 on anew pair, but if you want nice, good looking shoes that will last and be comfortable in, go buy a nice $60+ pair of shoes.
