I just tried on some Prada PR54IS's over lunch, and they are quite possibly the most comfortable and best looking thing I have ever put on my face. the $250 price tag however made me save my money for a change of underwear after I crapped myself.

How the hell can a bunch of plastic be worth that much???

:cool:

Next time, try on a Mans pair.

Cheap shades don't block out as much UV as high quality lenses do.

Bullshit. Polycarbonate is a great UV blocker, whereas glass needs a coating of some kind to be effective at blocking UV. I'm sure the expensive glasses use these coatings and do a great job, but any sunglasses will block UV quite well.
