        Comments about Native Eyewear Attack Polarized Sunglasses - '08 Closeout:

        These glasses are perfect. They were comfortable the minute I put them on. I love that they are light enough to go through a tunnel on bike rides, yet dark enough to protect my eyes when I'm snowshoeing. One note, though. If you have a VERY narrow face, these may not be the glasses for you.

          Comments about Native Eyewear Attack Polarized Sunglasses - '08 Closeout:

          These sunglasses are SO COMFORTABLE and lightweight -- they fit my small head -- and I love the fact that I don't need umpteen pairs of sunglasses, I can just change out the lenses if I'm biking at night or skiing on a really sunny day. My only complaint is that the case doesn't hold the spare lenses well enough and they rattle around.

            Comments about Native Eyewear Attack Polarized Sunglasses - '08 Closeout:

            I couldn't find my running sunglasses so I took advantage of the Outlet sale and bought this pair.

            Not knowing anything about sports sunglasses, I was really surprised when I got my package. It's so worth the $ to get two sets of lenses, soft pouch, leash, and a semi-hard case. The construction was really good and nothing out of place or pinches my face.

            It balances nicely on my nose bridge. The frame shallow enough not to touch my cheeks but the wrap-around style gives good sun protection.

            The lens change is easy enough.

            I believe that this style is discountinued because it is not on Native's own web site. Grab one while REI still offers it.

              Comments about Native Eyewear Attack Polarized Sunglasses - '08 Closeout:

              I am still trying to figure out the benefits of "polarization"... so I deliberately used the sunglasses at the beach to see if it improved visibility when looking for fish (as one of the reviews claimed that it did). As far as I am concerned, there was no improvement ! To be fair, I noticed that in full, bright sunlight... the lenses are very clear (probably good quality lenses) and cool- and they are comfortable. On the other hand, when walking or driving under cloudy conditions, I feel that perhaps the visiblity is compromised.
              I am still searching for the perfect pair !
