Review on 🕶️ Prada Linea Rossa PS56MS Sunglasses by Ben Dixon

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Good looking comfortable

I hate buying sunglasses, I've tried a few different types, Rayban, Spy, Electric etc which I've had really good experiences with but I just couldn't find it in any of them yet. I always have a hard time finding something that I think looks good on me and still has the color and durability to hang. I mostly wear black and have a reddish complexion and I thought they were perfect for this style. I actually tried them on at a sunglass store while looking at another pair of Pradas and I was blown away. I have to say the quality is just average, not cheap but not what you would expect for $250 and I knew that when I had them in my cabin. However, they fit my face very well, almost like gloves, and look exactly how I wanted to add to my wardrobe. These are glasses to wear while cycling or looking at your watch outdoors. Beach and don't worry about them falling off and being destroyed so that somewhat offsets any concerns about the durability they might have. Another plus is that the arms flex (not specified), they actually flex in the grip and not the hinge (pretty neat). I was very happy with it and it gives them a nice comfortable feeling (you don't get it). binding / no feeling of solid hinge mounting). Being rimless requires care not to crush or break them, the plastic/hard rubber grips feel slightly tacky and somewhat flexible, and the lenses are actually quite thick. so is it hard to break them? The gradient is smooth and consistent, the glasses overall are SUPER light and comfortable, probably the most comfortable sunglasses I've ever had. I have to say that I'm pretty picky about products and they're on the edge of my standard for feeling cheap in your hands, but at the same time they feel really good when you actually wear them and that's the main thing. I was very disappointed that they don't offer a polarized version, I would pay extra for that. The only thing I would change is the Prada logo centered on the side and that they only offer non-polarized/plastic lenses. ?May be? Worth the $150 I paid, $250 is way too much for the quality, but be aware that you are really paying for the style and Prada name by purchasing this pair. Although overall I'm satisfied, I finally got aviator sunglasses that fit me and suit my style.

Pros
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • No shape required
