I lost a pair at the beach once and promptly bought another pair because I missed them so much.

damn, i ain't spending that much on something unless it operates on electricity

12/30/2011 3:52:08 PM

Didn't think money was an issue with all that $$$ rolling in from TWW holiday rush.

Buy expensive sunglasses but take care of them and you won't regret it. I wore cheap ones for a long time and I'll never go back.

12/30/2011 4:03:23 PM

yeah, on the seriously, the last pair i bought was a $90 pair of raybans. still in great shape, except i left them in raleigh last weekend. the last time i tried to get some cheapos, they broke a week later

12/30/2011 4:05:12 PM

For me, the worst part of expensive sunglasses is fear of leaving them somewhere.

Which has happened.

And is very discouraging toward any prospective future eye protecting endeavors.

My coworker has these and let me wear them for a few days:

Between the color and the very well done polarization, they make you almost feel like you're seeing for the first time (leaves on trees, people, cars all look noticeably different in a good way).

ray ban hipster frame sounds perfect for you, can't remember what they actually call that one though.

To recommend sunglasses, people really need to know more about your facial structure and what you look like. So to be helpful, I took the liberty of finding a recent photo of you from your Facebook profile:

lolol

man, look at my guy! *whistles*

12/30/2011 8:09:14 PM

merbig you just haaaaaaaad to one-up my dorky glasses selection, didn't you?

While 'overdone', or whatever you want to call it, I still think these are incredibly flatting on most all face types. Ive got a pair in the tortoise color (though they make tons of frame/lens combinations) and like them a lot. I too am white, nerdy and despise large sunglasses but didnt quite want a dad pair of sunglasses that looked like tinted eyeglasses. These fit my face well, look decent and dont make me look toooooooo douchey (YMMV) like a lot of todays sunglasses will.

my problem is i have extremely light-sensitive eyes. even when i am wearing my sunglasses, i sometimes have to squint. as such, i require my sunglasses to have a pretty close fit to my face so that as little sunlight as possible gets through

fortunately, i found a pair that works well for me. here is a recent photograph

12/30/2011 9:26:46 PM

We are probably going to hit up the Sunglasses Hut buy one get one free tomorrow. I have been wanting the polarized version of these for a while but the prices stays an outrageous $169 and I cannot bring myself to ever spend that much on accessories.



I am hoping to get a pair of aviators because those actually look amazing on me....who would have thunk it.

12/30/2011 9:26:54 PM

^^ I have the same problem. Polarized lens help some with the squinting though.

12/30/2011 9:31:30 PM

I own these in the tortoise with the dark greyish lenses

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

Punchmonkey, I kinda want those you posted too. Drool

[Edited on December 30, 2011 at 9:35 PM. Reason : I too want the aviators and just need to break down and buy them]

12/30/2011 9:34:36 PM

just got these yesterday



love costas, lifetime guarantee

12/30/2011 10:17:23 PM

Love my costas. ^

12/30/2011 10:21:38 PM

I just got a pair of Costas while at the beach. I like them a lot, but I prefer my Maui Jim sunglasses if it is really sunny. Their Evolution lens is really good, but if you have trouble with bright light the glass lens is the only way to go. They are amazing!
