Sunglasses
« on: May 13, 2012, 01:20:21 PM »
What would you guys say are the best sunglasses, but I'm only on a cheap budget of around £40. Ive been on cricket supplies and sunwise appear decent, has anybody used them are they good?

Hey, the glasses i use are currently some Oakleys Jawbone - white with purple jaw bone spent 170 quid on them but my god the two pair of lenses you get with them are genuinely incredible <3 so if you get the money i'd get some oakleys

They're expensive, but a pair of Oakleys is money well spent. I've also got some Jawbones with transition lenses - they're the dog's (No Swearing Please).

Oakleys are awesome if you don't break them....if you do then they're a complete waste of money! At the cheaper end of the market, Sunwise are pretty good, Slazenger Elite specs are dead cheap at Sports direct and come with different lenses and on eBay you can buy 2 pairs of Woodworm specs for about £15 posted. Not particularly flash but decent enough lenses (uv400) and cheap enough so that if you do break them you don't need a bank loan or another payday to come around in order to replace them...

don't think any glasses are good if you break them.

Get insurance on them.
I have oakleys now - with prescription lenses. Frame is 120 USD. freaking lenses are 350 USD.
and insurance is only 30 bucks for a year - break them, scratch them, put them under a running car - as long as I can bring something back to the optician he will hook me up another pair of frame and lenses (don't cover lost).

I cant recommend oakleys high enough i have 2 pairs (polarized jawboes and gascan) however they are expensive but well worth the wait to save up for.

however i have also heard good things about adidas.
