ive gone through a bbunch of glasses in the past year or two. my everyday shades were a pair of versace aviators. i conveniently misplaced them somewhere in the past month or so. i had a pair of prada shields that were nice when i would go out or whatever. fishing or driving when the suns low i had a pair of rayban polarized glasses. super comfortable and wide framed too... i also had a pair of nylon framed maui jim glasses that i would use when i went golfing. easy to see and polarized too. off the top of my head, i dont know where any of those are at this moment. i need to go buy new glasses

yep.. i have the brine with the 580 green lens... broke them about a month ago, sent em off and the lifetime warranty covered them and i only paid $20 for the new frame they needed pretty good deal since they're like $250+

I finally bit the bullet and bought a pair of Costas. $200 later i definitely felt poor but man do I love them. They fit really well and the polarized lenses make such a great difference.

electric technicians are good.
i use electric for snowboarding and they are definatly one of the best brands i have owned.

oakley has better lenses though. they were at snoqualmie pass for a snowboard comp last season and had thier rolling lab with them... they shot the lenses with a pellet gun thing. shined the laser through them with no distortion. it was kind of amazing.

I've been buying the columbia or bolle ones when I find them more than 1/2 off. I noticed they don't get scratched up as fast as gas station specials do. I wear them at work. Leave them on the dash, wear them on top of my head and drop them on the floor, etc. I've stepped on them and popped the lens out but was able to pop it back in. Cheap ones though are another matter. I've had frames break on the first day.
