Could do with some new shades. Currently using some that a bird left at my house Alright for in the car but they are clearly womens ones so I can't wear them out & about

So, what do you all have? Whatrs good? Were is cheapest etc etc

Im guessing I should avoid ebay as it'll probably be full of fakes

Im going to get my eyes tested on Friday anyway so if I need glasses I'll see if there's any offers on

I think some Oakleys are over rated. Had a pair before & they were pretty ugly

I bought a cheapish pair in Debenhams - £25 but IMO they look quite exspensive

It's rained every day since I bought them

i wear oakley minutes too, but miss my eyejackets, i sat on them and bust them

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

i've used Foster Grant the past few years, i pay around £15 and they tend to last me 12-15 months, always seem to break/step on them just before the summer months start!!

i got these last month

£15 available in Co-ops!!
i use sunglasses loads so dont mind paying £15 as i get good use out of them!
although i know FG arent a brand to shout about!

Ive got these Prada ones... http://shadestation.co.uk/cPath/-1_2/products_id/3553/osCsid/35a3898ba3e774f834364c23e930f15c/product_info.php

Got them last summer in the airport so a little cheaper than that website but really worth it. Have some older Oakly ones Ive had for a while now for driving though. Anyone who tries on some decent sunglasses with good lenses over cheapo ones will really see the difference.

I paid a hell of a lot more for my oakleys than £100

There definately worth the extra money as the lenses are awsome and there really solid and not flimsy like all the other ones you get from boots etc...

Really cant go wrong with Oakley I've got a few pairs and really cant fault them at all. My favourites of the bunch have to be my WHY 8.2's and My Titanium Square Wires

majority of mens glasses are below £200 normally (Im talking the proper makes like Roberto Carvalli or Marc Jacobs)...now womens glass is a whole different story (as my gf has two pairs of Cavalli's )

to me there is three brackets, ultra cheap ones, usually poorly made, better made ones with decent lenses etc usually plus 30 quid, then 100 plus you start paying for fuck all. I'd like a really nice pair, but i'd be too worried about scratching them or losing them, i'd never pay over 200 quid for a pair.
