    What sunglasses are you guys wearing? I'm in the market for a new pair. I currently have Oakley Fives Squared. I'm thinking of going with another pair of Oakley's but not sure which style to go with. They seem to be a pretty good company and I also get a pretty good discount being an emt.

    I get mine from the eye doctor so I am sure I have proper up and anti-glare. I get an a tint so I can wear them during night and wet driving. Helps diffuse the glare of oncoming light.

    I also know the frames are of good quality.

    I have Oakley Five Squared as well and a pair of Half Jacket XLJ I've have for 14yrs. I also like Ray Ban. I had a pair of Ray Bans I got when I was 16 and just recently broke them (ssshhh I'll be 43 soon). Costa or Maui Jim will probably be my next pair.

    I’ve been an Oakley fan for many, many years and have about 13 pairs of them. But, the most recent pair of glasses I bought were Maui Jim’s, and they have become my new go-tos. They are extremely light and comfortable.

    Have had a prescription pair of Oakley’s for about ten years. They take abuse well and I feel they don’t go out of style. Best everyday and every sport glasses out there.

    I have about 14 or 15 pair of oakleys, some I've had for over 20 years, they are no longer wearable, but I just don't have it in me to toss them out. My current go to's are either my old inmates, Ferrari edition jupiter carbons, ot Ferrari edition badmans.

    I haven't strayed from Oakley yet, but I should have something else a try someday.

    @rons23 those Costa's look nice.

    Thanks for your service @hillbillytoyo , we all appreciate your line of work!

    Even though Maui’s are currently my favorite, I’m glad to see I’m not the only nut with too many pairs of glasses. I believe I have about 15 pairs of Oakley’s.

    Really can't beat the Oakley discount through standard issue. I have worn Oakley's for the past 10 to 12 years. They have saved me from injury a few times.

    Costas are nice but pricey. I got 50% mil discount on Oakley. Costa gives discounts for mil but they aren’t on all models

    Oakley standard issue? Great site. I have three pairs Fives squared, Daniel Defense cerakote’d Fuel cans(think that’s the model) and another pair with industrial rated and tinted lenses. Have to look up the model later. Those were for work safety glasses.

    Edit: last pair were Ballistic Det Cords

    Smith for me. I get them polarized and with the ChromaPop coating. Makes for awesome spotting of trout on the shoals and in the rivers. Great quality shades too. My previous pair of Smith shades lasted 10 years and I still keep them in the truck for back ups.

    I've never found a pair of Oakley's that fit right, and find they scratch way too easily. :notsure:

    Oakley 5 squared. I did a job for the guy that designs the molds for Oakley. Fascinating stuff. The mold weighs more than 500 lbs. and has more than 500 parts. I like the amber polarized lenses but wanna try the new-ish deep water lenses.

    I've got two pairs of Arnette sunglasses in my Tundra and love them. My oldest pair are about 14 years old and they've held up great. My Oakleys are in my wife's daily driver for when I'm driving that.
