shades

[danyroo]

Hey how many shades do you have?
what brand and why?

I have mostly Oakleys.. also my prescription glasses are oakleys. I have a few other brands of shades.
here's a couple of them.

I have 7 pairs of shades, unfortunately none are Oakleys.  While awesome, I am rarely outside without shades on and am the most accident prone guy there is with them and am always losing, crunching, my shades.  Generally have Oakley style knock offs for daily wear and on the motorcycle.  Flight glasses (Cartman shades as schro might say) for driving or for impersonating a state trooper j/k

well my wife works for a optometris. on her way to be a optitien.
so she gets good deals from reps.

otherwise I don't think I would be purchasing 230.00 sunglasses

I'm partial to Costa del Mar's.

I'm rough on shades; hence I go for the cheapies

I have a pair of Oakley blade style (M Frame, circa 2000) that I never plan to part with. They are perfect for golfing or running when I wear my contacts. When I'm not wearing my contacts, I wear these prescription sunglasses shown in my Schrotini shirt pic. I don't know what the brand of the frame is, but they're actually just regular old frames for glasses I had fitted with shaded lenses. I like the look.

I have two pairs of Arnettes, a pair of Ray Ban Aviators, and a pair of Ralph Lauren sunglasses. 

I really like how the Arnettes look.  I bought the first pair on a whim when I was at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk and had forgot my sunglasses.  I recently bought my second pair when I was in Hawaii.

I was given the Ray Ban Aviators.  And I bought the Ralph Lauren because they were around $50 and I thought they would look good when I wore a business attire.

I only wear Oakley's.  I bought my first pair with my high school graduation money and almost ten years later I'm on my third pair.  I think they look good with the bald head, kind of gives Big Jeffrey the tough guy look.  At least until I start laughing at everything.

Ive had loads of Oakleys over the years,i am wearing Ray Bans at the moment (polarized) bronze tint to them ....very nice

[danyroo]

Polarized.. that's what My wife wants to get me.. theirs the UVEX one I tried nice look

perhaps she'll manage to get a good price from the Oakley rep.. 

Raybans have nice stiles to.. Ryders also but to small for my head..

[VFRWolf]

I have to have polarized, I just see better with them.

[Sgt. Pate]

Let's see... 3 pair of Oakleys, 2 pair of Nikon shooting glasses, 2 Ray Bans, 1 polarized pair and 1 no name pair.

WOW!  I had better go shopping!  I need some more peepers!   

[PigPen]

Polarized makes a huge difference. I've got some cheapies from Sportsmen's Warehouse I paid a whopping $18 for, then a nice pair of yellow shooting glasses from S&W. I also have a pair of mirror tinted safety glasses that our first aid rep gave me. Very nice.

[BigJeffrey]

What about those in your pic Pigpen?  Those take the slyness to previously unreached heights.

Let's see...

a pair of Maui Jim's that never leave the car

Oakley's that I wear on weekends or special occasions

2 pair of safety sunglasses. They are ANSI safety glasses but look like Oakley's. I have a pair at the office for kicking around in and another pair that I wear to and from work. Why? Because it doesn't matter if they get scratched or I lose them. They only cost $10.
