Let's see them!

Also post where you got them and what you paid.

I'm shopping for prescription sunglasses right now, it's hard to find good ones cheap.

I used to love finding cheap drugstore sunglasses that looked good, such a shame I need prescriptions.

I think extras like anti-glare and polarized lenses are well worth it. The less crap for my eyes to deal with the better.

Now if only I could wear them inside without looking like a total sketchball...

Mine are Kirkland brand from Costco, polarized lenses (non-prescription due to wearing contacts), $43 with tax, about a week's wait.

Kinda like this:

I have two pairs of the same and try to always keep one in the car. Does the job.

You can get knock-off Rayban wayfarer's almost anywhere now. I saw a pair at Safeway the other day.

Buy the real ones! They're only like €150
I have black rayban wayfarers, couldn't live without them.

I have a pair of Oakleys that I bought when I had my eyes lasered in 2008. They cost $125.

They have more than paid for themselves by now. I wear them almost every day, have abused the crap out of them, and they're still clear and comfortable.

I'll get a pic for you asap. Mine are amazing Dolce and Gabanna. I've had them for years. I've had them fitted with regular prescription lenses as well as prescription sunglasses. No. They were not cheap. But, They are a simple style and I just keep finding ways to wear them. I guess it's like a good basic piece of clothing. Buy the best you can afford and take really good care of them.
