The Oakleys are really cool. I've always like their optics, but had bad luck with their plastic frames. Yours are metal, right? Just ordered a pair of Von Zipper Shams. Hope I'll like them. Like yourself, I usually buy nice sunglasses and keep them for years. I'm getting ready to sell off some of my old ones on eBay. The oldest ones I've had since 1988.

I ordered a dozen from X-Loop USA. I got steered onto these by Madturk. They are decent shades, total out to about $3.50 a pair. I lose 'em and break 'em so I'd rather trash a pair of $3.50 shades than a pair of hundred dollar Gargoyles. I have couple of nice pairs of Gargoyles and a pair of RayBan Aviators with cable temples that I wear f I'm just going out somewhere but if the possibility of tossing a football or shooting a few hoops exists I'm wearing the Loops.

Not a dumb question at all. The glasses are the same style but will have a mix of frame colors and lens tints including some that are mirrored. They also sell a package that includes 12 different styles but I figured if I bought one of those they would all be the styles that everybody hates. -

This thread inspired me to get another pair. The shades in my avatar are my prescription sunglasses (which I love). My only other pair is a pair of Oakley M Blades. They're a few years old, but they're still in mint condition (you tend to take good care of something that costs a little more). So, I was cruising around our local Kohl's and found a pair of "Relic" brand glasses. Reg. $30, on sale for $15. They're lightweight, durable, and if something happens to them, no sweat.
f**k, I CAN'T GET THE PHOTOBUCKET THING TO WORK. -

I have two pairs: one for my car, one for the motorcycle. They're both Walgreen specials that are designed to fit over regular glasses. That way, I can actually still see while I'm driving. I've always thought that was a good idea.

Those are some sweet Oakleys James!
I have a bunch of pairs from years ago. They don't look as good as the newer styles now.
