For the past 15 years or so, I've been wearing the same type of Vuarnet sunglasses (2 pairs of sunglasses, but exactly the same). Well, my last pair fell victim to the recent cold (in my coat pocket, leaned into the car... and snap!).
So I'm in the market for a new pair of shades. I don't do well with cheap lenses as they give me headaches. I've been casually looking for a couple of weeks (and putting up with the bright winter sun without any eye protection) and I haven't found anything that's caught my eye, no pun intended. Most everything I've seen is too small and I don't like the kind with nose pads. I prefer those that are fully formed if you know what I mean.
Any brands that people are fond of? I plan to have these for MANY years (remember I got an average of 7 years or so out of the last pairs) so the money isn't a huge issue.
I didn't find anything in the RayBan line that interested me. I saw a couple pairs of Revo's that felt OK. But since I've been out of the market for so long, I really don't know what the really good brands are.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
