Y'all need to hang with DHart a little more; he dove in for my ran bans and grabbed them for me at WL. I'll have cheap polarized glasses in the boat from now on!

I am a Maui Jim guy mainly because they fit my big head. It would be hard to switch at this point even thought hey are pricey. I did break one of the ear pieces and sent it in with $10 and they sent it back in a new case all fixed up.

If you wear prescription sunglasses like me you tend to not lose them....

I have one pair of prescription sunglasses in my car, and another pair on the bottom of the lake. Only cheap non prescription in the boat now. Best to keep some distance at Green Lake.
For thousands of years men have felt the irresistible urge to go to sea, and many of them died. Things got better after they invented boats.

At our club this morning I left my Oakleys in the the boat and the 2nd shift crew came in to start their set. Once I realized the glasses were out in the boat with them I thought about leaving them in there just briefly, then hopped in a paddle boat and paddled my way out there to get them! Added an additional 35 min and a lot of cardio to my morning but I can't chance it! Funny.

I prefer the AO over the ray bans. they come in cheaper too. and a few different lanse options as well as the ear piece option. you can buy everything seperate also.
they are also made right here in MAss

When you add in everything(gold frame $4, cable temples $18) they end up being $113 so no real savings

sunglasses are one thing i think it's a good idea to spend money on...i'm a big fan of Smith sunglasses...polarized is a must...and the more words used to describe the lenses the better...currently, mine are polaraized bronze mirror chroma-pop...they inevitably meet a tragic end after a couple years...but, well worth it...
As far as I can tell, I'm not quite sure...

sorry i linked the AO website directly but I have always bought from AO dealers and have never spent over $60 for a pair, I have gold frames with bayonett with green lenses, and gold frames with hook ears and true color lenses. if you have a military ID or a friend you can get great deals on them on a Base that carries them. I got my last set off amazon.
But yes if you price out from them directly its not much mroe of a bargain.

I have been an Oakley guy for years now. I had 2 sets of Wires done in Prescription 10 years ago. I bought a Matco tools franchise last spring and needed safety glasses in some of the shops. Long story short .. Off to get my eyes fixed. Surgery was cheaper than replacing every pair of glasses I had. Best part is I am an Authorized Oakley Distributor so the case has a few more pairs in it these days.. Crankshaft, and X Wire are probably my 2 favorites these days.
