Sunglasses

I have owned one pair of Oakleys, but they broke one year and one day after I got them. I have not been able to find another pair that fit my big head. Now I normally just just a cheap pair from Academy. I have a hard time getting any of the name brands to fit my head. Need to keep trying to find a pair of nice ones that fit.

 

I've worn a few brands from Kaenon, Persol, Maui Jim, Oakley (Tundra Crue favorite), Arnette, Von Zippers, Smith, Electric, Hoven all of which are polarized and ideal around water. The current favorite has been Kaenon Jetty and Kaenon Malaga on the way.

Hoven is a good reasonably priced polarized sunglasses.

I started out with the half-jackets, but got tired of replacing the nose pieces and the socks. I found the Bottle Rockets and have had them since! Their just like the half jacket, but they don't have the extra pieces and parts to lose. I've had mine now for 3 years and love them! I've replaced the lenses several times for about $30 a pop.

Thanks guys I ended up going with the Oakley Gascan blackside prism black polarized. I visited an Oakley store over the weekend and it was between those and the crankshaft. Again thanks for the input

 

Older thread, but highly relevant to my current needs.

The favorite pair of glasses I've ever owned.....Costas with the polarized green glass lens...are about to be sent back after years of great use for a temple piece coming off.

The polarization doesn't play well with the HUD on my new Tundra....nor does it work with most gas pump displays and other stuff.
Gonna feel weird not going polarized.....but this next pair will likely live in the truck and hopefully my repaired/replaced Costas will arrive for everywhere else.

Going to give these a hard look.

I want MADE IN AMERICA and made to last.



Heck yeah.....just saw they have polarized lenses that play well with HUD, gas pump displays, ATM's, etc.






"OPz - Optimized Polarized for full visibility of digital screens. Visible Light Transmission"

 

Vuarnet for driving, Heatwave for range, Gatorz for range and shoot house, Maui Jim awesome but they got stolen, Costa great outdoors, Smith good pool glasses and killer warranty.

 

I wore Rayban for decades but switched to Native Kodiak about 10 years ago. Framehave held up and only replaced the lenses twice.

 

Oakley for me and they are prescription also.

 

I believe I'm going to give a pair of Gatorz Warhawk w/ the gold mirror OPZ lenses a try.

Driving & general purpose use.

 

Struggled to make up my mind……so I am also getting a pair of their Specters w/ the dark grey OPZ lens and adding the removable foam insert that seal them for yard work and similar use.
