Sunglasses

Honestly, they look like aggressive toy sunglasses for kids, the kind that Action Man would wear.

I'm surprised they don't have "EXTREME" written on the arms.

They remind me of this:

Wayfarer II, strapped to my face with an old inner tube.

Hipster cycling, all day every day.

Just ordered a pair of these, can't wait to get them!

They were giving those out down the cinema last time I saw a 3D film.

Damn, could have saved myself £80 there.

Have to say I agree with all the Oakleys comments, functional yes, stylish no. Do they still reckon the lenses will survive a shot gun blast though? Not sure my Ray Bans would.

Fucking fuck face, why do people keep saying thatttt!

(I have some wayfarers myself, cost a fortune with prescription lenses)

What model are those Bans!!?

i just bought some sunglasses on the market for just 1 euro a piece, after 1 week they are fucked up, but for this price you can use every week a new one, and they are shiny

another word over the oakley's. they do have the best lenses imho but, and this is observation from years of use, they scratch by just looking sharp through them. for today's possibilities in coatings and all, theirs seem just not made particularly more resilient and replacement costs an arm and a leg.

one gets the idea that this is all tactic as my other fav, smith optics, are well tougher on that, have a little less choice of otherwise awesome lenses and less cyborg/more slick frames.

the lenses, smith provides for my snow goggle of choice, are amazing and wouldn't let oakley even try to curl one out on them. i'd go and get me another of their shades if my oakleys would decide to fall apart on me.

just thought i'd share my favs with you.

Smith are rated as being the best goggle lenses out there for wintersports, they just look gash!

much less so then cyborg oakleys, but well ... taste differs, innit?

Smith do not look gash. Just my opinion though.

I also like Spy optics.

This information is all rather useless though, unless you are considering purchasing me a pair of sunglasses.

I would recommend against that though as I'd probably forget to say thank you and then insult your dog/wife/bike.

I've always liked Persols. The 714 folding pair is what I've been wearing for a while, a kinda crossbreed between aviators and wayfarer -

Smith googles look gash - they do some nice sunnies though

I've always liked Persols.

The always added so that we didn't lump you in with all the hipsters for whom these are the latest flavour of the month??? ;-)

ha! I've had them for over 2 and half years so O.G hipster (well at least 2 year hipster anyway).

A die hard hipster you mean...

Oakley have so many models now though there's summat for everyone there. Their lenses rock.

I tried some giro sunnies and they did not suit me at all so settled on some cheapy pbk ones. Their lenses are gash tho...

I've been riding with cheapo sunnies for a while now, and frankly its dangerous. Fecking things fog up in both good weather and bad weather. Going to try some of these...

With the Met stradivious I've just ordered, they should make me look like robocop a complete wanker.

Whoa!

i pass a young kid in shepherds bush most weeks who rocks these

on his way to the mosque in full attire.. it looks so damn good i give him the universal signal for "nice" every time i pass
