My dr told me when I got Lasik 20 years ago that he didn't want to see me outside without sunglasses due to cataracts. It's made me wear them.

Currently, I've got Costa 580P's...I like Oakley's but their polarized lenses aren't near as clear as Costa's and next time I'll go 580G. The P's scratch easier and there isn't enough weight difference to justify the P's any longer.

I like Brandon's better than the new ones.

I use Shady Rays as I am too hard on glasses. I either break them or lose them so SR's are good enough for me.

I gave up Oakley's for Costa's, they seem to be way more durable to me the 580 glass lenses are much more scratch resistant

Maui Jim polarized are the latest pair that I bought. I have about 6 pair of Smiths, as well. My kids like Oakley's, but I feel like I'm a little too old for their demographic.

Go to Sun Glass hut on a sunny day.

You can try them all out by walking outside and seeing how they work for you.

Try a few before you commit.

Sun glasses are more of a commitment than beer and a lot less than a wife.

I wear Maui Jim’s but more importantly I wear glass lenses instead of plastic. Superior clarity and scratch resistance. I don’t care if they’re heavier. I’m a little heavy myself.

Oakley has a frame that will fit your head properly…..and therefore stay on your face….

Nothing. I wore a pair for years. Classic look IMO.

Currently I’m rocking Oakleys.

I wear both costas and Maui’s

Prefer the costas when I’m on the water and Maui’s for everyday wear

I like my Bex sunglasses and have a pair of RB aviators for backup.

My Maui Jim 501s were awesome when I was flying; they were the only frames that wouldn't give me a headache under a headset.

Oakleys and Costas I had were just 'meh'
