deuces wild Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 I am not a sunglass snob :ninja: but when on the water or driving I need decent sunglasses as I am sensitive to sun glare.I don't like to spend a fortune on them (already lost a pair on my friends boat) but I like polarized glass lenses.I currently wear THESE glass lens polarized Ray-Bans. $100 usd. Not the quality of Maui Jim's or Revo's but they do the job. ;-)How about you. Cheap, moderate or expensive?++++++++++++Cheap Sunglasses - ZZ TopWhen you get up in the morning and the light is hurt your headThe first thing you do when you get up out of bedIs hit that streets a-runnin' and try to beat the massesAnd go get yourself some cheap sunglassesOh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeahSpied a little thing and I followed her all nightIn a funky fine levis and her sweater's kind of tightShe had a west coast strut that was as sweet as molasesBut what really knocked me out was her cheap sunglassesOh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah(solo)Now go out and get yourself some big black framesWith the glass so dark thay won't even know your nameAnd the choice is up to you cause they come in two classes:Rhinestone shades or cheap sunglassesOh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scuzzman Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 Pffft!I pick'em up at the local gas station for $3.99 - I lose them too often! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deuces wild Posted July 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 I used to have the same philosophy until I saw the difference a pair of polarized sunglasses made on the water (I was a boater for 25 years).....they reduce the glare 100%.....take them on the road and they do the same. Add to that the fact that the screen out harmful UV rays that my lead to eye problems.Since then I could never go back to the drug store sunglasses. :) My eyes are worth it And I am pretty frugal. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artist Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 .Since then I could never go back to the drug store sunglasses. :) My eyes are worth it And I am pretty frugal. :DThere's drugstores - then there's Boots (chemist) over here. I buy their £25 range. I have a problem with the sun's rays too so need something decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expertec Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 I can't remember ever seriously wearing sunglasses... I don't think I ever have. I don't really like them, same as I don't like wearing hats. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catgate Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 .... Boots have their B.O.G.O.F. offersI thought they were "bog off" sales, until I worled out what those initials meant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug Posted July 14, 2005 Report Share Posted July 14, 2005 I'm having to wear my prescription sunglasses all the time, at present. I'm having new lenses fitted to my normal frame - just very minor changes but the old lenses were a bit scratched. I had my sunglasses with me, so I left the normal ones as I had a spare pare at home. Could I find the old ones! Felt very daft watering all the hanging baskets and pots these last 2 nights in the dark while wearing the sunglasses.Am trying to mow the lawn at present and it's very cloudy grass really looks funny. Hope the new lenses are fitted very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
