I rarely lose/break sunglasses, and I need polarized lenses (not teh gas station kind) so I stick with Oakley. And i've got a huge cabeza and oakley's fit me.

What are you looking for? A buddy of mine sells NOS hi end shades. I've bought Serengetis, Raybans, and Bolles from him in the past. Even some vintage Varnets from the 70s, brand new. Less than Half $$.

I had underarmors a while back... but they scratched easily and were uncomfortable.

I then had some Sea Strikers for $25 and they were great... but they didn't float

I know oakleys are good.. but pricey.

I lost my Maui Jim Big Beach glasses after a day of fishing and , well you know.
Luckily we met the girl who is the regional manager on the Key West Express and she gave us two 60% off cards for them. I still have one left

I gotta order me another pair right now. That'll make me feel better after not being able to find that part for my pond.

As long as you are going to drop them over the side of a boat, I would recommend buying them at Walmart.

You have to go to Sunglass Hut and survive the hard sell and try on the ones you may like. Then buy them on line.

I bought fake Oakleys in Mexico once, for ten bucks. They looked the same, but the polarization on the lenses was not as good as the real ones.
