Can any of you well travelled, sophisticated, men of the world recommend me a pair of sunglasses, I’m not aiming to look like a movie star, I just want the best anti glare that I can find.
I have a pair of Bailey Nelson, that I bought in Brisbane maybe 8 or 9 years ago, and a pair of Gatorz Radiator, that I bought in Naples FL a year or two later.
They’ve always been more than adequate, but I don’t know if my eyes are are getting less resistant to glare as I’m getting older, or the sun is getting stronger, or what, but I’m having to narrow my eyes in strong sunlight lately, even when wearing the Aussie Bailey Nelson ones, which had always been good at reducing glare.
 
Thanks for all the input guys, it was appreciated, I’ve gone for a pair of Duco polarised, from Amazon at £18.00.
That way, if they’re not doing the job, i.e., not stopping the glare, plus making me look like a well preserved Ryan Reynolds, I can deep six them, and I won’t have spent Maui Jim money, thanks again.

I'm afraid if I'm buying sunglasses, I need change from a £20. Good glasses, bad glasses - how long will they last if my fat ass sits on them?

Not so long ;-)

If you’d ever punched a 44 ton truck from Zaragoza to Huelva in August you’d know that cheap sunglasses don’t cut it, if you want to see where you’re going, and have your eyes rested and protected, you need to block as much UVA and UVB rays as you can, cheap shades are unlikely to block much.
If you cough up £180 to £200 for a good pair of sunglasses, you’d make sure that you didn’t sit on them.
