      Comments about Pepper's Black Jack Polarized Sunglasses:

      Love that I can exchange these sunglasses every time they get scratched or broken. I'm on my third pair in many many years.
      The sunglasses are comfortable and lightweight. The nose piece is flexible and the sunglassess themselves are stylish yet provides great eye protection.

        Comments about Pepper's Black Jack Polarized Sunglasses:

        When I made the mistake of losing these glasses on campus last month, I was devastated. I picked up another identical pair today, and I wouldn't buy anything else.

        These glasses are comfortable, stylish, and tough.
        Good fit for people with a slightly larger noggin. They look good on all face types (oval, square, etc) The earpieces are slightly flexible, and open smoothly, and the lenses have a slightly reflective coating that looks good. The smoke color is a perfect medium tint.

        The polarized lenses are such a benefit over the cheap sunglasses that are just tinted plastic. They help you see reflective surfaces without the glare, which is not only useful when fishing in bright sun or hiking in snow, but around town when the pavement is wet. Keep in mind though, they will scratch if they come in contact with anything like keys or your fire steel like my old pair did. Common sense, but it's easy to forget when you get used to just how tough these glasses are.

          Comments about Pepper's Black Jack Polarized Sunglasses:

          First off, if you aren't wearing Polarized Lens then you might as well not be wearing sunglasses.

          I got smashed by a wave on Cinnamon Beach in St.John and my beloved Black Jacks got ripped off my face and swallowed by the ocean before I could find them.

          I've owned three pairs of Peppers and they are always the best value for your dollar in my opinion. The Black Jacks polarized lens have a blue tint to them which I liked compared to my other ones with an orange tint. Makes everything a little brighter without straining your eyes.

          Lets face it though, glasses are expendable and breakable and thats even a blessing in disguise with these as I get to pick out a new pair of Peppers every 8-12 months or so.

          I also wear these driving in the rain and they really cut down on glare. Basically they are always on my face when I'm outside.

          Comments about Pepper's Black Jack Polarized Sunglasses:

          I am pretty tough on sunglasses and normally go through several pair of expensive sunglasses a year but these have really hung in there. I decided to give these a try nearly 8 months ago and they still look and function great! My only complaint would be that with any wide sided style of sunglasses, they tend to give you a bit of an obstruction in your peripheral vision.
