Review on Durable Polarized Sunglasses For Men: Perfect For Fishing, Driving & Golf With 100% UV Protection By SUNGAIT by Richard Alemayehu

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best value I've found for knock around glasses

So, I probably have a couple hundred pair of sunglasses purchased over the last 20 years. For a while it was all oakley, vonzipper, spy, etc. But the last 5 years I'm more of an aviator style guy - rayban, maui jim - at least when sports/activities are not involved. I'm always in need of some inexpensive knock around glasses to leave in my car, wear to the beach, forget at a friends house, etc. For a while my go-to was the foster grants when they were on sale, but I found them to delaminate in the heat when left in the car. On a whim, I gave these Sungait glasses a try since I really liked the flat bottom style. I purchased my first pair in gunmetal gray since it would go with just about everything. After spending a few days with them, I was convinced the frames and lenses were much better quality than other similarly priced non-brand name glasses, even those costing 30 to 50 bucks or more. I picked up the other two colors, so now I have all three options for less than the price of a single pair of glasses I'd normally buy. While the lenses are very clear, and polarization is great, I will say there is some slight aberration as the lenses bend near the frame, but its so subtle and so far in the periphery its a total non-issue. Raybans or Mauis wouldn't have that issue, but they're also ten time as expensive. That aside, I found the frames to be sturdy and well constructed, with an obvious high degree of precision fit and finish in the hinges. I did have to bend the nose pieces just a touch to get a better fit for my face, but that's simple enough. Over all, I'm very happy with these glasses. I've yet to find a better value for my money, and suspect I wont find one for quite some time.

Pros
  • Better than my expectations, lightweight, so cimfortable.
Cons
  • The polarization effect can cause dizziness and headaches for some people
