A trip to the beach will make it crystal clear that white frames are the style..hence my Oakley's...

Yeah, if you're between the ages of 16-21. Otherwise, grab some David Yurmans.

Disagree...get to the beach when you get a break gathering baskets in the Walmart parking lot.

maybe I'm the idiot, but I prefer the glasses from the dollar store as opposed to a pair that cost 10 times as much and do the same thing and look the same.

i was never insecure enough to buy expensive sunglasses just because they were expensive.

that was my take too, and i have a lot of cheap shades. but..when it comes to sunglasses..you get what you pay for..the oaklye's much better than the cheap ones.

.

Fit my face, don't feel self-concious wearing them, and they're cheap enough that if they break, etc..... I don't feel bad.

No. The ease on your eyes as they block the sun. If you haven't had a real pair, then you have no frame of reference.

Nirvana..I ask you...have you ever owned a pair of expensive shades? I can completely identify with you because 7 years ago I was you. I was all about cheap shades. Then I got a nice pair. Night and day. Have you not experienced this?

yes I've "experienced" plenty of the expensive pairs. you can find a $30 pair that does the same thing. to say otherwise is

false

now I'm not talking a $2 pair that doesn't block uv rays yeah those suck. but spending extra on designer shades is illogical

Noted. I'll be on the look out for quality 30 buck shades. I appreciate your input.

I've been faithfully wearing Oakley sunglasses for over 10 years. Even my regular eye glasses are Oakley metal frames!

Just picked up these bad boys last month - A bit out there and I know I look like a douche... but I love them!

Someone said it before. You get what you pay for. In terms of clarity, uv protection and quality. Cheap Chinese sunglasses are junk and even harmful for your vision. I don't know why you would have a decent haircut and wear good clothes to put on $9 dollar plastic Chinese crap on your face.

I brought a pair of Ray Ban aviators 20 plus years ago and they look like new until the day they broke. I brought a new pair of them plus prescription Ray Ban wayfarers. I bet they will look great for 20 years too.
