Everybody looks good in Wayfarers.
Down side is if you leave them in your car everyday they can slightly distort from the heat. At least they can in South Texas heat. I have to buy a new pair every 2 years because of that. Its not a big deal since I usually end up with a new prescription every two years anyway.

I have worn everything from Vuarnet to Ray Ban to Revo. When I switched to Costa Del Mar's, I never looked back. The wife wears Native's and Maui Jim's. By the way, Gaby, I think the Wayfarer's look pretty good on you.

I alternate between this pair of Ray-Ban and Maui Jim... both prescription. I got the Ray-Bans with gold mirror.

Forget Ray Ban .. I'm not going down to the car to get mine now . But nothing beats Serengeti's for driving and Vuarnet's for skiing .

As much as I like my Serengeti's, nothing beats my Revo's They're similar styles, and the Revo's are lighter and I can see clearer with them. They have spring loaded frames also, which is mucho comfortable

I have a pair of blackframed Wayfarer s that are so old ...they are now gray. I was
recently given Seringeti Dante model glasses....fantastic ! I found Oakleys in the street, handed them into the Police ( Cops not the band ) and got them back after 8 weeks If only it was sunnier in Scotland....I could wear them more often. |

I gotta go with Nicko and the Maui Jims...although I have a pair of Wayfarers, and 2 pairs of Aviators, standard green lens and mirrored brown. The Raybans are good, but the Jim's are the best. Just picked up some Oakley Splinter Polarized (Black Iridium coated VR28) They're pretty good, but the Jim's polarization is better. Unfortunately I don't have any Ray-ban Polarized to compare to the Jim's and Oakleys....yet.

While I prefer the styling of the Ray Bans, I'd say the clarity of the Maui Jims are noticibily superior.

I forgot to mention that both my Revo's and Serengeti's are polarized. I can see better out of the Revo's

I like my Serengeti's too I bought them because they have rubber on the nose bridge and the ear stems. I wear them to work, this way when I sweat, they stay on. My Revo's just have them on the nose
Here's the Revo's The Serengeti's
