The Persol 714s are the best pair of sunglasses that I've run across so far. they are solidly constructed and seem to be extremely durable in-spite of the hinged construction that lets them fold up. The hinges are solid, well constructed and feel like they could easily see many years of use without wearing out. Which brings me to the next point - the folding design is just uber-cool! Both folded up and open, they look great and stylish, especially on formals - the tortoise brown pattern is very classic which helps.

Amazons return policy is great.
I ave a hard time with sunglasses. I havent worn any in about 10 years and had a hard time finding a pair for muyself.
I tried the Persol 714's on at a mall near by, but they were the larger size. I wished that this classic design was going to fit me, but when I tried them on in the store,m they were goofy, and too large, eve thought I have a, above average head size.
I found these size 52's here on amazon and figured I'd giver them a try. They fit great.
