Jocke, Do yourself a favor and try on some Maui Jims before you buy anything. IMO they are the best sunglasses made period. The different layers they use in making the lens is incredible.

I wear Oakley Radarlock.
I'm sure I'm paying extra for the brand name and they might not be the most stylish, but for my purposes, they do the job nicely. |

These are really cool, and if you decide to have cataract surgery, you'll be prepared in advance.

Oliver people's are my favorite. Occasionally I'll cave and buy prada or Tom ford. My mother swears by Maui Jim's p, they do seem well made but the style isn't for me.

In Canada, these help prevent snow blindness and the lenses aren't prone to fogging or scratching.

Oliver Peoples Benedict - stylish and my go to pair
Maui Jim Coconuts - very comfortable and the rim is quite flexible. I wear them when I'm doing some physical activities |

Wow Jocke, are you moving from Sweden?
If you do you of course have to go vintage and with your birth year. I'll trade you these 70's for you know what. |

Sunglasses
Mainly Oakley, mainly unobtanium plastic wraps rounds, all polarized. I like that I can store them on my head or around my neck without the need for leashes and since I dive a lot they never rust.

Love my Oakleys, but also have a Julbo Vermont pair specifically for walking the dogs in the afternoon or when it's windy.

I have Revos, Serengetis, Ray Bans and Maui Jims. The Maui Jims are the best of the bunch. I wear the Ray Bans quite a bit too but for work and riding the motorcycle. The Revos are good and the Serengetis just sit in the drawer.

I have three pairs for distinct situations -
Ray Ban Wayfarers - Beach, Pool Oakleys - Running, working outside Persol - Daily driving to and from work, going out. These are awesome and the detail to them is amazing. A few years back I had a nasty eye issue and now I have to wear sunglasses no matter what when sunny or I get blurry vision in my left eye.

If you like to choose your own lenses like I do, then a frame choice is first priority versus a consumer style brand.
Silhouette titanium frames are superior for lightness and flexibility. Then you get to choose your lens options from a shop or independent source and have them shaped as you like. Mine are now in another place, but the stock photo below gives you an idea. I have gold frames and bronze frames for different occasions.

I have yet to find/try a pair of sunglasses that are of better quality than my Oliver Peoples.

Oakleys & Pradas. But it seems that whichever pair I want at that moment is in the other car...

I like the styles Maui Jim has in their mens line. :-)
I wear Maui Jim and Oakley.. Both are polarized. I can't wear any other type of lens now that Ive been spoiled. |
