The best sunglasses

To those of you who choose to wear sunglasses while umpiring, I've been reading about all types. Polarized lenses seem overpriced and unnecessary for what we need as umpires. I'm intrigued by a golf lens, lots of our work deals with settings similar to that on a golf course (white ball in the air, green grass and surroundings, etc)...the golf lens is also $60 less than the most expensive polarized lens. $140 vs $200 for the brand that starts w/ an "O".

Is this a case, of the most expensive, not necessarily being the best choice?

This thread is not intended to debate whether or not an umpire should wear sunglasses. Rather, those who do, what is working for you outside of the $20pair of gas station shades that I'm currently wearing? Is it worth it to spend a large amount of money on sunglasses?

Please weigh in.
