Quit staring directly into the sun unprotected
Are you torn between love for knockoff wayfarers and your love for new flavors? Do you need a sturdy pair of sunglasses to lateral into your truck without fear you've just hucked away your burrito budget for the month? Do you need something to protect your eyes while you wait for a tow truck in the middle of nowhere off a dusty dirt road without service where all you can do is wait and brush your teeth out of boredom? Well then you're like me, and I like these sunglasses. Likely if you answered yes to many of the statements above, you'll like them too.

Nice fit but coating is cheap
I’ve had these for just over a year. They fit nicely and have good quality hinges, but the mirrored coating wears off. Very disappointed.

Love the style but not very durable

I love the look and style of these glasses and they are comfortable but I've had them one year and some kind of coating on the lens is peeling off around the edges near the frame. These are my driving glasses and they just stay in my car so they have had light use. Big bummer

Great for bigger heads!

After going through 2 pairs of SPY Rocky's in a short period of time, I bought these. They fit my larger head and face perfectly. They look great and they stay in place while hiking. Optics are not as good and there is some reflection of my face on the inside of the lenses when the sun as at certain angles but these issues are not nearly enough to lower the five star rating (especially considering that these are a fraction of the cost). I highly recommend these if you are looking for affordable, great looking sunglasses for larger faces.

Cheap garbage

I'm not sure why people are buying these, the mirror coating on the front dissolved from raindrops in the first month I had them.

Great high sierra mountain protection.

I found a pair while going up Donahue Pass on the JMT in Yosemite not a scratch yet were found on granite just off the trail. I have a large head and fairly wide face. Regular glasses tend to be too narrow. These are big! These work as good as my expensive Ray Bans which are annoyingly scratched up. These have spring assist arms. They bend out as well to prevent unwanted shape changes. Polarized lenses are not cheap ones that make glare look purple. Work great. Quality is great. Look is great. Price is great. I’m buying a pair as a backup for when they eventually scratch. I’m notorious for being hard on glasses.

Disappointed

Not sure if I got a dud but I dropped them from a short distance once, one time, on my hotel floor and the screw popped out and they fell apart. My wife's pair is still solid but it was very disappointing especially after only having them for 2 days

Large size is good and bad

I have only worn them for a few weeks, but the build quality and optical quality seem to be good. The size is larger than I am used to, but that is a positive in that the field of view is larger and glare is reduced. The wide field of view helps with peripheral vision. A significant downside, though, is that the lower rims of the glasses sit on my cheeks instead of the nose pieces holding up the glasses. It's a little uncomfortable, and I anticipate sweat and facial oils building up on the lower rims.

10/10

It’s hard for me to find sunglasses. My head is usually too wide and sunglasses too tight. Not with these. So freaking comfortable.

Stay Away from the Mirrored Finish

These are fine.. for the money great... but the mirrored finish doesn't last... after only a month it started to wear off.
