still a no on the oakleys?

Dangit! 2nd pair of Maui Jim frames (Waimea Bay) just busted today...right at the hinge...while in it's protective case! Twice in a year now... Have had my running Oakley's (Pro "M" Frames) for 5 years...thought I'd give them a chance on the daily wear side... :(

Might MJ make a more durable frame...?

agingMadCow:

Contact them - they will replace them. They are very good about their service.

Asked my optometrist to send them in for me, so...will wait and see!

I do it for patients regularly.

Would never have guessed! Heck...they broke... Wasn't the company's fault. I had them sent in at your suggestion. Returned today good as new...for 10 bucks apiece! Can't beat that...thanks for the word!

I am here to serve. And to spread itude. But mainly to serve. And laugh at poop stories.

Well, I do carry Bolle, but what are you looking for in a sunglass?

I don't really care. I was trying on sunglasses the other day and liked the Bolle Limit polarized the best of what I tried. I have a rather large melon and they wrapped around it nicely and looked good too.

meter down? No, it really depends on what you want in a sunglass - fashion, sport, driving, all-around, polarized, etc. You tell me what you want it for and the look you are after and then I can make recommendations.

Not down, just not tech savy enough to even know how/if I got screwed by Dell or not.Well, I am going to Los Angeles for 5 days and Vegas for 4. I dont have any sunglasses right now, but surely will need them for the beach and desert sun. I'm not looking for something to wear while playing sports (and poker isnt a sport) just something that is fashionable (but not those aviators or gucci glasses) that will keep that intense sun out of my eyes.

I generally do not wear sunglasses, but I know I need them in Vegas from past experience.

MC...I need some for all around and I tend to like oval/rectangular and, as mentioned above, on the larger size. I'm not a big fan of the 'sport' look. I tried on a bunch of Bolles the other day and liked several styles but liked Limit the best in terms of fit, comfort, and style.

 

[_4_]

Do you do any Oakley's?

Currently, no.

:( I haven't been able to get a pair of emerald juliets yet - I won't pay more than $180 for them. Got blue ice and fire for under that - can't secure an emerald pair yet though.

Not on my face. I prefer the more sporty styles. However, I have done aviators for my sister and a FBG.There is a cool hybrid by Bolle called Sin City, though. It has a little aviator look to it, but is rimless.

Forgot to this the last time around.

 

[BowieMercs]

If i ever get good ones, I'll come to MadCowsDiscountShades.com. I lose or break em too often if I spend > $15 on a pair.

I use the $6 polycarbonate 99.99% UV blocking safety glasses from Lowes/Home Depot etc. No they arent optically correct, but wtf you want for $6?

Smoke colored lenses for day use, yellow lenses for shop use/night driving.

Yep, Im cheap.

Indeed I can. I have helped a couple of FBG's with Rx glasses and sunglasses as well.

Since you are the resident glasses expert, what's the best thing for playing golf. My sight is starting to go, and the ball 5-7 feet away when I address it is a little fuzzy. And as soon as it's gone 100 yards, I can't see it any more.

Any suggestions? I have progressive lenses, but they don't work too well on the golf course.

Sounds like your distance vision is going - time for a new exam.

My cheap-### sunglasses I got from Maxim magazine 2 years ago are now lost and I need a new pair. I'm feeling like I'm suddenly responsible enough to care for a real pair of shades that cost more than $20 so figured I'd drop in here. What are the lines you carry? Should I just go to the mall and find the ones I like and report back to you? These are used mostly for driving and some outdoor activities, and I would like them to be polarized. Any tips?

That is what I always recommend - see what you like and let me know. I carry a lot of major brands - Maui Jim, Costa del mar, Ray-Ban, Revo, Arnette, Killer Loop, etc a lot more. I do NOT carry Oakley.I love the MJ lenses and feel they are about the best in the market, FWIW.

 

[RageRhino]

what would you recommend for fishing...but still somewhat fashionable so i could wear them day to day as well.

dont really have a brand preffernce, do have a smaller (thinner) head so any huge goggles dont really work for me.

any suggestions would be helpful. thanks MC
