Re: Sunglasses

I've got a pair of Timberland's myself.

Although if I got a new pair I'd go for Persol 649's or 714's (as in Steve McQueen in Thomas Crown Affair)

Re: Sunglasses

Oakley Flak Jackets at the moment but mostly Oakleys before

........have found Qakley lenses very good at reducing the very bright sunlight in this country

Re: Sunglasses

Oakleys, a great investment. They are really good for driving, especially as I wear contact lenses which seem to make my eyes more sensitive to bright light.

My standard glasses are Oakley frames too...

Re: Sunglasses

Oakleys with polarized lenses. Before that I wore Ray Bans.

Brought the Oakleys in San Francisco three years ago and saved a fortune. They are £240 in the UK and only cost me £90 there.

Will pick up another pair of Oakelys in the US next year.

Re: Sunglasses

Love my Maui Jims but the puppy loved them too $170.)

Now I'm wearing 2 for $20 Adidas knock offs, I'm on the hunt for a good pair at the moment.

Just as long as It's not one for each eye

My specs are Okleys with CZ reactolite lenses.

Re: Sunglasses

Oakleys. Cheapest pair I could get from their store at Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth.

Used to be more than happy with my Bloc glasses though and they cost 40% of the price of the Oakleys!
