Comments about Pepper's Sophia Sunglasses - Polarized:

I am a huge fan of sunglasses in general and I needed something I could keep with me throughout the summer as well as traveling all over urban and rural China. The glasses served me well, good value in terms of price. My two problems with them are that the lenses get scratched because I would shove them in my backpack, purse with my keys, ect. And also one day the screw that keeps the glasses together simply fell off one day. However I love these glasses so much I going to buy it again and get another pair in black. : )

Comments about Pepper's Sophia Sunglasses - Polarized:

I really like these sunglasses because they look pretty darn stylish, however I think they are a little large for me. Sometimes if I'm in the right light I think I look a like a bug (who really cares about that though), but in addition, I work in the field all summer and every time I would turn my head to look at the ground, they would slip forward...not very snug that is. The lenses also scratch very easily. I did not throw them into my purse with keys, but took pretty good care of them, even still, the reflective part on the lenses has scratched off...and that is less than a year of wear.

Comments about Pepper's Sophia Sunglasses - Polarized:

I have been buying expensive Smith's for years, and always end up scratching the lenses like crazy. So I decided to try some cheaper sunglasses. The good thing about these is that they don't look cheap, so I still feel stylish in them. They are fun and functional. I haven't had problems with scratching on the lenses, but I never just put them in my bags or purses without a case. The only drawback is like others have said, my long hair sometimes gets snagged under the 'P' on the sides of the frame. They are bigger glasses, so if you have a small face or head, you will end up looking like a bug.

Comments about Pepper's Sophia Sunglasses - Polarized:

I coach swimming and have spent a lot of money on good polarized sunglasses over the years. I was pleasantly surprised when I bought these glasses. I bought them for a camping trip because I didn't want to take a pair of my more expensive glasses. These sunglasses were great! They cut the glare and held up pretty well.

The only negatives...if you get hot and sweaty, these are wraparound glasses, so they will fog up a bit. I also don't keep these in a purse or backpack because they'll scratch. Other than that, great pair of polarized glasses for the price!

Comments about Pepper's Sophia Sunglasses - Polarized:

These are some great sunglasses. I use them for everyday use and I've also had a chance to use them for early season skiing. They do not have super dark lenses so they're great even later in the day. They're light weight and they fit my large head! The only issue I have with them is that my long hair constantly gets stuck in the emblem on the sidearm. Other than that, great shades, good value.

Comments about Pepper's Sophia Sunglasses - Polarized:

These sunglasses would be great if not for two things: they are too large and my hair gets caught in the P logos on each arm. I can deal with the size, however, it is very annoying, not to mention painful, to lose hair every time I remove the sunglasses!
