However, I was equally blown away by the price. Shades for over $200 is not what I normally consider to be in my budget. However, I am quite happy now that I purchased them. But there is one note, however, that these shades don't like to stay prompt and tight on your head when you put them in the upright position (say when you move from outdoors to indoors), unlike sportier Oakley's and such. For this reason, I primarily use these sunglasses for driving or boating but not for sports or for going to the beach (I have other shades for those activities).

I have only had these for a few weeks and have only worn them a few times, but they are very comfortable, give great face coverage with no "leakage" of sunlight around the frames. As for the build quality of the frames, they seem solid though I have not had plastic frames since my Ray Ban Wayfarers 20 years ago ! No creaking, the temples work smoothly and all of the joints line up perfect. Frames made in Italy, not China. Overall extremely satisfied with these. And now a comment on Amazon.com. I originally bought these at Sunglass Hut for list price. Found them here on Amazon for much less AND got a cyber monday discount bringing the...Read more 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Maui Jim Classic Sunglasses - Stingray - Tortoise Frame w\ HCL Bronze Lens - H103-10 (Eyewear) This is my fourth pair of Maui Jim sunglasses, spread out over a number of years--because they last forever, unless you sit on a pair and break them, as I did! The clarity of these sunglasses is phenom, as well as the reduction of sun glare. I don't buy anything but the Maui Jim brand. |
