    Comments about Native Eyewear Dash XP Polarized Sunglasses:

    These glasses fit great, and I love that I can change the lenses out to suit the activity I'm doing. MY only complaint is that the nose pads wear very easily, and while the glasses have lasted me almost two years; I fing myself having to replace them ONLY because the nose pads are close to falling off.

      Comments about Native Eyewear Dash XP Polarized Sunglasses:

      I use these sunglasses for everything. They are by far more comfortable than any of the Oakleys I've owned and much more durable. Swapping the lenses easy and they stay in place. I use these for mountain biking and have taken branches to the face, plenty of crashes with the frames and lenses still look new. I picked up these glasses with my REI dividend and have been a huge fan ever since. These are light weight comfortable (on me), durable, and worth the money.

          Comments about Native Eyewear Dash XP Polarized Sunglasses:

          I bought these glasses in 2003 and I'm still wearing them... or am I? I tend to insist my expensive purchases (highend outdoor gear for instance) including a lifetime warranty. This warranty tells me the company has every faith in the product and, hopefully, will be around in the future to live up to that warranty. This is my third pair of DashXP's. The first two got stratched and the nosepads fall off after a couple a good amount of use. I mail them to native (with a small service fee) and within a week and a half I have a brand new pair with brand new lenses. Native has even been kind enough to swap out the lenses for different colors with each replacement. Knowing that this item will always be replaceable under warranty is what sold me. For [$] (what I paid in 2003) I have purchases sunglasses that will last me a lifetime (assuming Native stays in business).

            Comments about Native Eyewear Dash XP Polarized Sunglasses:

            I won't leave the house without my sunglasses so these get put thru the wringer when it comes to abuse. They stay in a jacket pocket or on my head as long as I'm awake. I've dropped them on a few occasions but they have only scatched when I would expect anyhting else to have done the same or worse. I like that they are light and stay put when I'm wearing them. I have a rather large head and often think glasses look too small on my face but I really like the look of these on. For over 5 years I have had been wearing Natives of several differnt styles and the current Dash XPs have been in service for about a year, I sat on the first ones after having those for over a year, which brings me to the only downside in my opinion which is the $30 price tag for warranty replacement. It's not because I sat on them cause I've replaced 3 pairs thru the warranty in the past. While I dont like it its still cheaper to replace them twice than the last pair of Oakley Flack Jackets I bought when I broke my Natives since I couldn't find a dealer nearby. I really don't consider another brand anymore when I go to get new sunglasses.

            Best shades I ever owned. Fit and finish is superb. The lenses are still scratch-free and the frames glassy smooth despite a year's worth of considerable abuse. Mine are just as likely bouncing around my glove box or in my workout bag as in the case. They're so light I forget I'm wearing them sometimes. And they stay on at speeds up to 100mph on my motorcycles.

            Negatives, the firm-sided case is too large (but a microfleece bag is provided). Oh, and the lense edges are not polished.

            Highly recommended.
