Gents I need your help! Someone stole my Maui Jims out of my Jeep today (my fault) and I need some ideas... Thanks!!!

Pix · 5 May 2014, 02:29 AM

I have Oakley's (prescription)

lig · 5 May 2014, 02:33 AM

Can't beat MJ for sunglasses. I've worked in the eye business for literally decades and used to try just about every brand available but the go-to glasses are Maui Jim in the bronze lens for PacNW overcast days for the contrast or grey for bight sun.

Sorry about the theft - it is truly maddening.

AF_Rob · 5 May 2014, 02:55 AM

Thanks guys... The bronze lenses were what I had too... Might as well stick with what works.

Wesley Crusher · 5 May 2014, 03:22 AM

You can't go wrong with Ray Ban / Persol / Oliver Peoples.

newu5er · 5 May 2014, 03:38 AM

MJs here too. Hands down best for me.

wantonebad · 5 May 2014, 04:05 AM

BNA/LION · 5 May 2014, 06:21 AM

Maui Jim's

I just picked these up... http://www.sunglasshut.com/us/603429028602

GB-man · 5 May 2014, 06:37 AM

Oliver peoples for me

AF_Rob · 5 May 2014, 07:23 AM

Thanks guys! I got the exact pair again. I loved them before, I'll love em again.

Lion · 5 May 2014, 07:31 AM

Glad you bought what you like and wanted but for me I chose Ray Bans with prescription last year and really like the ones I bought!!!

z32turbo · 5 May 2014, 07:34 AM

Maui Jim's are my favorite.

alubin · 5 May 2014, 07:44 AM

Oliver peoples here, haven't been disappointed yet.

samsam · 5 May 2014, 04:03 PM

MJ have the best customer service, but I can find a pair that fits me. I like Ray Ban and Persol. Persol looks really nice, I think.

Edit: that was fast, OP.

When I called CO home:

Summer -- polarized Oakley
Winter -- non-polarized Natives, for snow/ice

I have a strange melon, and (unfortunately) MJs never fit my head properly.

Edit: oops...I see you already replaced them!

Touring · 5 May 2014, 04:39 PM

Have to agree with the others here. Get a replacement pair of Maui Jim's. Best lenses and polarization. I own two pairs and could not imagine getting another brand.

East Bay Rider · 5 May 2014, 09:18 PM

Glad to hear that you replaced them.
My daily pair of knock arounds are an old beat up pair of Ray Bans but for riding or driving I rock Persol and Serengeti.

Presa canary · 5 May 2014, 10:18 PM

I have about 30 pairs. Salt optics are by far my favorite

uscmatt99 · 5 May 2014, 10:23 PM

I've always liked Oakleys, may have to try out some Maui Jims after reading this thread.

padi56 · 5 May 2014, 10:26 PM

My prescription glasses will do me they have quite good transition lenses, so cannot see the need for in most cases very expensive so called designer sunglasses.

mannyv11 · 5 May 2014, 10:38 PM

I love my maui jims

77T · 5 May 2014, 10:54 PM

Sunglasses, like shoes, are a matter of taste and quality. Anyone who chooses 100% UVA/B, Polarized lenses will do best when battling Mr. Sunshine.
