    Default The Sun Never sets on a Badass: Sunglasses Thread

    What type of shades do you rock? Have a favorite brand? Style? Post up what you have!

    Used to rock Oakley but i have loved Aviators ever since i saw the movie Top Gun. I have a pair with the silver frame and a pair with the gold frame, both made by Ray-Ban.

    Oakley has a site for gov't employees (Military, Police, Firefighters, EMT, etc). Very good discounts. everything is cheaper than any website and it comes directly from Oakley. They do tend to backordered on popular items though. https://secure.usstandardissue.com/Index.cfm

    I had a set of Oakley Canteens w/two sets of polarized lenses for the longest time. They got stolen from my ski-shop last winter. Now I rock these awesome semi-aviators w/gold frames I picked up at CVS a solid ten years ago. Favorite and best pair of sunglasses ever... except maybe my Oaks

    When I have some disposable income to drop another 150+ on shades I'll prob get a custom of Oakley Oil Rigs

    These Ray Bans have been good to me, and the quality is phenomenal.

    Lots of Oakleys... I'll add my favorite to the mix. They go along the lines of Joey's OP with the retro 80's look. Oakley Frogskins with Matte White frame and Gold Iridum Lenses:



    I fully intend to get a pair of Maui Jim's one day. They feel as if there is nothing on your face and have a lifetime replacement warranty. Well worth every penny.

    Seems like a lot of people are big fans of Oakley. I like the Gascan... might pick up a pair of those.

    I have gone through probably 4-5 pair of oakleys eventually they just weren't my thing. I now have a few pair of basic gold, silver and black aviators similiar in look to Joey's first post but with smaller height lenses. Much more fitting these days for me, don't really know who made any of them, jut know they were the ones that fit best.
