As most of us drive convertibles and summer is almost on us i ordered some new sunglasses as mine are now 3 years old and it got me wondering what sunglasses does everyone else wear.
I have ordered some new Oakley Conductor 8s to replace my Oakley Crosshair and banish them to my works car.
I wear Oakley Polarised as i think they look smart and are excellent in the Sun. Mind i dont tell her indoors how much they cost =))
So what sunglasses due you wear and why

Me, I have Raybans, like Dirty Harry. Because they look nice and protect my tired old eyes, just fished them out for a clean ready for the off!

Mine are prescription sunglasses (varifocals) that came free with my bins .......... that cost £300! Deal :mad:

Do the job as advertised but normal sunglasses are a thing of the past :(

Just the opposite for me Andy, after having to put up with poxy clip-on type sunglasses all my life, since I had laser eye surgery some years ago I can now wear "proper" sunglasses.:)

Oakley square wire for me Billz, polarised and prescription lenses, brilliant sunglasses but you need to remember to put sun block on your nose or the l lenses seem to act as a magnifying glass.......Ouch.

I wear my prescription glasses, the lenses are reactors and as soon as they meet sunlight they darken. I do have a pair of sunglasses sat in the door pocket of the zed but never get worn.

I couldn't really afford it either Bri but it was either that or find myself a different job which wouldn't have been testing vehicles. But, depending how often you have new glasses (always 2 pairs) it's no cheaper than Laser in the long run.
