Real review from someone who bought the sunglasses
I noticed a ton of "non verified" reviews where they give or discount the shades for an "unbiased", so wanted to put up one as a guy who actually paid full price for the sunglasses. Overall these are well worth the $20 they cost, mainly due to the lenses actually being quite nice. Pros: Lenses are in fact polarized; vision quality is as good as my Nike's and Bolle's (doesn't compare to my Ray Ban's, and not even close to my Maui Jims... but then again most don't. Arms of the frame feel tight, and based on build should stay that way short of you yanking on them. The lenses have a good looking flash blue and are grey when looking through them. The shade of grey to me feels like something I'd want on a semi overcast day. Not quite dark enough for a full bright day, and as such not sure I'd consider these on the slopes. Good shade overall though for the most typical light situations. Neutrals: Frame is cheap, but sufficient, and considering the $20 cost it's fine. Cons: No anti reflective coating on the backside, so I am noticing a fair amount of reflection from light sneaking in the backside of the lenses (for $20 really didn't expect it though). To me though this is a fairly strong pet peeve, so others may not notice it as much. Lenses are loose in the frame and rattle a bit if you move aggressively (running, etc.) However, since I won't be swapping out lenses I'll just put a dab of super glue on a needle and insert it inside the edge of the frame, should shore it right up. Rubber nose pad sits almost flush to the white nose section you can see in the picture (meaning it's almost like it isn't there and the hard plastic rests on your nose). Additionally, the nose pad isn't adjustable in any way. In short, if these happen to fit your nose perfectly I don't see an issue. If they don't, they are slightly uncomfortable. Me specifically, the frame size matches up well with my head from an appearance standpoint (wear a 7 5/8 fitted hat), and I have a nose that is symmetrical to my head size. That said, they sit a bit tight on the bridge of my nose, which I guess I'd classify as sorta uncomfortable, but not bad. In closing I'd say these are exceptional glasses for the situations where you may be putting the shades at risk of damage or being lost. I'll be sticking to my higher end semi rimless for baseball and using these for camping or rafting activities.
