I don't buy any over $20 anymore. Last nice pair I bought was a longggggggggggg time ago. Lasted about 2 weeks before I sat on them and broke them. A cheap pair will last me a couple yrs though. Go figure.

I just spent $130 on a pair of Native's. Worth it, IMO.

Sunglasses are an item that has huge markup because of name brand, not their actual effectiveness.

I bought some New Balance sun glasses at Sam's club for $29, great sunglasses. You don't need to spend much money to get quality sunglasses.

I have probably 6 pair that are over 150 with 3 of them over 275ish.

I have the
- Wiki Wiki Maui Jims
- Maui Jim Road Trip
- Maui Jim Aviators
- 2 pair of Costa del mar Harpoon
- Costa del Mar Prop

I'm outside at least 10 hours a day so sunglasses are something I will drop cash on and I am on my feet 12 to 14 hours a day so shoes have no limit on a budget either.

Ray Ban Aviators

I like aviators and all the other options looked cheap or didn't last long so I went Ray Ban.

Hard to beat the classics. I lost a pair my dad bought in the 80's on a canoe trip. Looking back, it was a poor decision to bring them

$150 for these by Tory Burch.



I always have to get plastic framed because while I love the look of the aviator style I can't wear any glasses with the metal nose pieces. I regularly push my sunglasses up on the top of my head and those metal nose pieces end up tangled in my hair.

I don't buy expensive knives, watches,or sunglasses. I just lose/break too many to put money into them.

$120


That's what I pay for mine, but I take good care of them and they last me about 4 years

Paid $120 for those Oakleys, but only because I was splurging on vacation last year.

Usually stay in the $8-$25 range.

The most I've ever paid for Sunglasses is $19. Probably bought 10 pairs like this.

However, I do own a pair of Costa Ansils.
