Maui Jim.

Serengeti Titanium hingless drivers gradient polarmax lens. I've had a pair for 4 years no scratches no problem with the ear pieces and so light I forget that they're on my face. They fit close and provide full coverage to my eyes when I ride my motorcycle.

Serengeti glass lens polarized- AMAZINGLY clear with the brown lens the best driving glasses ever. Glass is a little heavy (in all glasses I think).
Serengeti polarized polycarbonate lenses- I love them too. I wear them if not in the car.
Worth a go I reckon- I bought mine untried on the web ($250 cheaper than in Australia) and bought two more pairs!

Oliver Peoples Nitro VFX dark amber lens birch frame polarized anti-reflective
Beautiful view through these lenses.
I've also got a pair of EZ clips with magnetic attachment points for my prescription fishing glasses.
Shooter's glasses and assorted less expensive shades I can just snatch up. I'm careful with the Nitros though. Really quite sweet. Nice shape, stylish but not flashy at all.

These are absolutely bomb-proof, I have lost count on
the number of times I have dropped them on the road.
I also wear Maui Jim and Revo but in less hazards conditions

Coming from an optics connoisseur, that's quite the endorsement!
Never tried MJ's. Off to Google...

They have Maui Jim's (not Micheal Jordon's) for sale at the Optician's next to my Optometrist. There's a couple named after islands that are no frame. I'd really like a pair of those. They feel like you are wearing air.

I used to wear only gargoyles. The original design. You know the ones where you feel compelled to ask people with a dry Austrian/Germanic voice "Is your name Sarah Conner?". But once the fun wore out and I realized it was no longer the 1980's I stopped wearing them. I still have a pristine pair of them in my old 2nd generation Z28 Camaro but thats another story for a different thread. Lately these days I just go to Walmart and "buy yourself a pair of cheap sun glasses" as Rusty used to advise. You can get a pair for under $9.00 and you will never lose them. :tinfoil:

Matsuda 10622's. No plans to ever replace them.
oo: GreenLED is using a new seasonal avatar.....is this a first? It's spelled maui jim, of course. I posted that message early this morning which is usually when I fumble.
So, yeah...I discovered that I really liked polarized sunglasses a few years back. That along with the the great optical quality has me hooked on them. Last year I had an accident with the mj's and had to replace them. After spending an hour down at my local Sunglass Hut I walked out with another new set of maui jims after walking in with the intention of spending half of what I did but I'm really sensitive to distortion. Oh well. I work outdoors so I figured I'd get what works best for me. They're available for less on line but the Sunglass Hut had a great return, upgrade and warranty policy.
I'm wearing these and these now....not at the same time though...

Not quite. I try to switch it for the Halloween season, but sometimes I forget (like last year).
Ditto. Once I started wearing polarized, there's no way I'll pick a pair of regular shades.
I'm also kinda picky about optics, and have discovered (much to my dismay) that brand-name optics can be better than the $10 shades I used for years and years. An exception might be Chili's and Pepper's (from REI). They're relatively inexpensive shades and the optics and build quality is pretty decent.
