I just buy cheap ones from wherever since I only use them to drive -- New Balance or Speedo or something. Right now I can't justify spending over $100 for a pair of sunglasses. Ridiculous

I'm sure they are nice but I just don't care. I have used the same $9.99 ones for almost 2 years and still work great and don't look old or anything.
 
My brother doesn't wear sunglasses and since we've moved to the desert, he's noticed that he's lost much of his "night vision".

you can get damn decent ones like bolle for 50, and theres a world of difference between them and 10 dollar pairs at a walgreens.

 
Just some cheapos from wally world. I think they cost under 10 bucks, but they've held up ok. I've had them for 4+ years now. They're not polarized but whatever.

cool then, more power to you

I wear prescription so my glasses have to cost a fuckload

If I didn't I might have the same luxury of not caring about em 😛
 
Either:
Prescription safety glasses (they look like aviator glasses) through my work, free.
$20 polarized sunglasses from the grocery store.

I got a pair of knock-off polarized Oakleys for ~$8 USD here in China. They seem to work pretty well.

I'll give you $20...... :shocked:
 
maui jims- the greatest lens ever made. anyone else who disagrees never have worn them before. /thread

the only thing that comes close are oakleys
 
Some cheap things I got at Sports Authority a few years ago. At the time, it was hard to find cheap sunglasses that meant the USAF requirements for wear in uniform.
 
Black aviator polarized Foster Grant, $20 @ CVS

For those of you who have not tried polarized... YOU NEED TO! They are amazing.

I wear some Oakleys, nanowire polarized . They cost $280 but my gf gifted them to me, and bought them online after trying them at a store.
