    Re: Sunglasses

    I got a pair of polarized Oakleys 5 years ago...well worth it. They are still almost like new. Definitely worth the cost if you are looking for sunglasses.

      I'm going to get some Oakleys when I'm looking for new sunglasses. They look sweet.

        Awesome...thanks for the input everyone! I'm gonna find a pair I like and get some decent polarized ones. I notice glare when driving here in AZ, and I'm tired of some minor bump/sit/whatever breaking a cheapo pair of sunglasses. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't being suckered in, I know that expensive != good all the time.

          Got the Oakley Half Jacket...I liked the Half Wire 2.0 a little more but it was more expensive and would have required me buying onine to get what I wanted. Instantly when driving I noticed the polarization reducing the glare, I used to have to move my sun visor around to block a lot of it, now I don't have to do that as much. Definitely worth it!

            Yeah, I haven't used the sun visor since I got my half jackets. Congrats on the purchase

              Re: Sunglasses

              Alright... I've never bought a pair of sunglasses before... mainly because I can never find any that fit my head right..

              Where should I go to get help with sunglasses styling... and correctly fitting? And secondly, what are these polarized lenses you guys keep talking about?

                My sunglasses broke last week. I'll definitely look for polarized sunglasses when I've got the funds. Good advice.

                  Polarized lenses filter out some wavelengths of light, so they can take away glare. If you do a search for polarized vs. non polarized you should find some comparison sites that explain more. Basically I just notice that it blocks the sun better, without just being tinted more.

                  I also wanted a pair that wouldn't bend/break easily, so it's worth spending the cash I think. Just got tired of the cheap ones, but I didn't realize the nicer ones could be that nice.

                  I'd check out a Sunglass Hut or some store near you, they should have ones to try on and you can see what you like.

                    If you want to save some money and want a durrable pair of glasses, just go to Walmart into the fishing section and grab yourself a pair of fishing glasses. I have had my pair for about 4 years and wear them most of the time. They work great IMO. They are a litle dark but they work.

                      But do they have people that will help you figure out what is good for you? Like I need style help... I need help figuring out what most people would consider 'cool'.

                        They have people who'll help, but I don't know how much I'd trust them...I went with a basic Oakley type, wasn't really "out there" so I was safe, but I think you'd be fine...I doubt you'd want anything horribly ugly lol

                          It's not that... I just have a really wide head... so its extremely hard to find any pair that fit my face correctly... that's all I'm really looking for. A pair that fits correctly, and doesn't look horribly offensive.

                            Yeah, you'd just have to go there and see if they have anything for wide heads...i think they'd help you out.
