The best sunglasses

[Klokard]

Check out the Bolle Vigilantes. I have these in my bag. They are a blade type so they work well under the mask. They also have interchangeable lenses. I love them.

I wear safety glasses from Northern Tools, about $7.99 per pair, appearance similar to Oakley M Frames. I go through about 2 pair per year.

I go through about 2 pair per year.

I bought my M-Frames in 2000 and wear them regularly for everything from biking (which I don't do anymore) and other sports, to lawn mowing. Since I bought a clear lens a few weeks ago, I'll wear them for even more stuff like woodworking and shooting. I think they cost ~$140, which is only $4 less than what your 2 pair per year would cost you from then through this year.

If that's what you like, then that's great, but I'm just saying that the Oakleys should last you a long time and, as you've demonstrated, have a relatively decent cost.

I've been using Easton Diamond Flares for the past 5-6 years but only when on the bases. I have both a black lens and a light blue lens pair.

They are only $19.95 so I don't worry about breaking them. I spent top dollar on my West Vest Platinum, my hexpad shorts, my plate shoes, my base shoes, my Honig pants and Honig shirts but I see no need to drop $100-150 on Oakley sunglasses.

Just my two cents.

I have no need to drive a Limited Edition Navigator L either. But it's nice to have that choice.

I've got a son that is a freshman in college at a private university so I won't be buying any $120 plus sunglasses that can easily be broken. I'm pretty happy with my '06 Toyota Camry and it's paid off next month. I'm sure Totota would like to see me trade it in for an '09 but I've got other priorities.

I could go buy a big gas guzzling SUV for $40k but it doesn't appeal to me.
Ford/Lincoln is going under because there are not enough guys like you buying big boats. To each his own. Next time buy two.

I wear these with a prescription insert. I bought them two years ago and love them. The even work under my helmet behind the plate.

I still wear Oakley Half-Jackets. Keep one pair in each car.

Who cares? I mean, is it better that nothing gets discussed at all?
