I've had a pair of Serengeti sunglasses for over twenty years now, and they just broke in half yesterday. The lens is glass and good quality, I took good care of them and I don't wear them very often, just for walks in the park, or on vacations. Anyway, I'll have to get another pair soon. The only complaint I had about these glasses, were they were very heavy. But, I have to admit, I hate to wear any glasses (hats or gloves), so they bothered me more than they would someone else I'm sure.

What kind of sunglasses do you wear? Are you happy with the brand, and what are the things you like or dislike about them?? I've bought a couple of cheaper pairs of sunglasses in my day, like Foster Grants, but they were never that good and were easily scratched (plastic lenses). :sunglass:

I have a pair of RayBan "aviator" style, gold frame and gold wire temples that I've had for about 20 years. The top and bottoms of the lenses are thinly silvered and they're very effective but I don't wear them often....mostly for driving or flying.

My "daily" ones I wear whenever I go out, 2 pairs of 3M, heavy black frames and kinda oval shaped lenses.

(As an ex USAF pilot, I got used to wearing sun glasses most of the time and now I can't leave the house without them.

BTW, I don't have an American Express card.)
 
Thanks Falcon, Ray Ban is a brand that I was thinking about, they seem to be a good quality sunglass.
 
Here in Scotland (especially in the west), an umbrella is more useful than sunglasses. Yet even on dull days, I see loads of people wearing what sometimes look more like welder's goggles than sunglasses. Perhaps there is a very high incidence of eye problems here, or else the wearers simply don't realise how stupid they look. It also must make their obsessive, compulsive looking at their dumbphone very difficult, and when they cross the road they won't see the ... SPLAT!!!

I don't wear sunglasses.
 
I always wear my prescription sunnies, even at 7 am when I go walking, all year round. It's a good habit that just comes naturally, as soon as I'm ready to go I pick them up and put them on. I've done this for as long as I can remember, it's an automatic reaction.:sunglass:
 
Clip-ons when driving or mowing. :)

I've never been one to wear sunglasses for some reason. I've always worn visors instead.

I wear el cheapo sunshades because I lose or break too many, I've just recently started wearing my glasses to drive and I have clip on shades for that.
