Where's a good place to buy sunglasses from?

[glenimp617]

I'm off on hols next month and need a new pair. No more than £100.

Thanks!!

Primark

Primark

£1.50 a pair, don't need to worry about them getting damaged. Seems a good idea to me

i used the optic shop online for my maui jims (glass lenses ,wanted the ultimate clarity ) the always have a 10 percent code
also worth getting gorrills grips to avoid losing them but tbh when you spend a lot you tend to look after them ,ive always lost or damaged my cheap ones
like the way my mauis hinge both ways so they are never too tight on your head ,and been able to see so much more with them on ,when im looking at the ocean you can basically see maybe 80 percent more under water ,also the contrast and colours in trees and grass is amazing

edit probably over budget but its like going from standard definition to 8k

poundland, because you are only going to lose them when you are out on the lash anyway, or just get a pair off the lucky lucky man on the beach for 10 euro

Boots. But if you want the best you need to get a pair of Gucci shades. It's what all OCUK forum users wear.

Mister Spex have a good range and you can order a few pairs and return what you don't want.

Decent cashback too and usually well priced.

This is a terrible place to ask this question. This forum is largely filled with people who couldn't give two hoots about their image.

Surely with sunglasses it completely depends on what you value out of them.

Go to a shop, try some on and find a pair you like

Then buy them for less online

I'll sell you my aviators or wayfarers as I only wear prescription glasses now. Stupid eyes...

no wonder the high street is dead

Could haggle in store too. You'd be surprised what you can get away with.

Or have a seemingly endless supply of disposable income/crippling debts to buy over priced brands.

Yep, but I am not going to pay more than is necessary , high street stores need to evolve their business models if they want to remain competitive

Which is why we're here instead of Instagram! I'm heavily in the 'do they protect my eyes properly' (CE Mark from a retailer who has a reputation to lose, not a street vendor), then 'are they cheap enough to lose/break without crying', then 'do I look like a poseur in these?' camp.

how do they evolve?

 

[Junglist]

I bought some Hawkers that I saw recommended on here last time someone asked the question. I got 2 pairs for £30 seemed decent enough.

Only once have I bought nice sunglasses and they broke and I've never got over that resentment.

I bought my last pair of Serengeti at pretavoir.co.uk
They were the cheapest at the time *shrug*
Ordered a few to try and they have an easy return process

I don’t know , that’s up to them
