Why do some guys wear sunglasses on the back of their head?

Just a way of holding them without having them on. Some people don't like putting them in a pocket, or on their collar, etc.

 

[D1gger]

to look teh cool man.

 

[meltdown75]

to shade the back of their head, obviously.

Season 1 of the (new) Outer Limits would answer this as "Because of the damn nanobots."

 

[nakedfrog]

Because they want to have sex with you.

 

[zebano]

To give you something to Nef about.

they're a lot more secure on the top of your head.

the same reason he has a bluetooth earpiece and his collar popped.

yeah but you get your hair and oils/sweat all over the inside of the lenses.

I think it's to keep tigers from sneaking up on them.

Depends on the person. I cannot wear my Revo's nor my Maui Jims on the top of my head. They fall with the slightest movement. I don't do the "back of the head" but I just wanted to let you know that they are not always secure on the top of your head by any means. Not to mention people who have longer hair can get their shades fairly dirty nesting them up top.

Always makes me think of that douchebag Guy Fieri. I still like that one show of his though.

Except from the OP's pics, the inside of the lens will get more dirty there then being on the top of his head.

Seriously, these douches think it's cool and that's why they do it.

Red necks use it for sun protection I think.

 

[sandorski]

These are the same people with SLRs around their necks. As everyone knows, They're Douches!

both ways tends to get them dirty quick, especially on hot days when youre sweating. i will put them on top of my head sometimes, but usually ill just collar them or put them on the brim of my hat if im wearing one.

 

[shortylickens]

I heard some douche was running around smacking the cameras off their necks.

 

[mooncancook]

I don't know where else to put them while I'm indoor when I go out on a sunny day. But when I wear them on the back, I don't wear them upside down like the guy in the photo though.

 

[skim milk]

rednecks don't want to get red necks

 

[slightlyhuman]

ha, that guy is a tool. although i do have them on bill of my hat since i'm indoors.
