What kind of bad ass shades are you highly stylish ****ers sporting?

I just lost my most expensive pair (only $80). I'm about -2 and -1.75 and I'm finally going to break down and get some expensive prescription stylish sunglasses. Tired of being blind when I wear sunglasses & no contacts are not an option. I'm one of those people who can't touch their own eye.

Do not respond if you wear crocs, jean shorts, or like sunglasses like this:

my phone camera has stopped working right - sorry it's sort of unclear - you can get some cool carreras for fairly inexpensive - check on Amazon.

Maui Jims

ESS Crossbow $75, modular parts so you can replace scratched lenses or broken nosepieces without buying a whole new pair.

Great for the job, frame's a bit bulky, but they sell slimmer models.

I just get the transitions lenses on my eyeglasses.

Whatever the gas station has in the $15 range works just fine for me

Costas sell sunglasses with 1.75 readers in them. I use them for fishing.

Have had same pair of Costs for 12 years, worn everyday cleaning pools. Now trying to find a new pair, of course mine are discontinued.

Add me to the "I lose or scratch them" group. I just buy Nemesis glasses with +1.50 readers in the bottom. I can usually find them for around $5 a pair.

White trash oakleys baby!

Maui jim and Costa del Mar make some of the best lenses.

I believe recently Costa del Mars parent company Essilor was bought by Luxxotica.

A lot of designer shades (clothing brands) are actually made by the same 3-4 eyeware companies, there are some interesting articles on this.

I personally wear Maui Jim, they have an outstanding warranty and repair division, and their optics are excellent.

Whatever you choose, get polarized lenses

KCwolf · 04-13-2018, 07:13 AM

Maui Jim's are the some of the best sunglasses on the market IMO

wheeler08 · 04-13-2018, 07:20 AM

I’ve always only wore Oakley’s. They aren’t the cheapest or the most expensive, and they e always lasted me for a long time. I had a pair that I bought in high school and I wore them till the ear pieces started fading away when I was in my early 30’s

scho63 · 04-13-2018, 07:41 AM

I only buy cheap sunglasses. My retinas are probably fried from lack of UV protection they claim to have but are more than likely lying.

O.city · 04-13-2018, 07:54 AM

Costa and Oakley

Usually wear my Oakley’s for sports and costa on the lake and around normal situations

Have some ray bans but never wear them

**srvy** · 04-13-2018, 08:03 AM

Ray Bans or Serengeti are classic and forever. Dont be one of those goofs who bought white rimmed Oakleys and still rock them.

Are better yet jet get out look around and see what style fits you not what suits another. Are you incapable of decision making.
