As the spring arrives we all need to protect ourselves form the dangers of the sun.
There are a lot of threads about what we think of a specific per of sunglasses but almost no threads of sunglasses in general.

What nice brands should i be looking for. I'm interested in getting a per from a dedicated eye-wear producer, i.e. not Gucci or Y$L.

So far these brands has caught my attention.
Oliver Peoples, Cutler and Gross, Persol, Oliver Goldsmith and Initium.

What am I missing?

The classic Ray Ban Aviator can be a hard fit for some.

I just got their new modified Aviator called Cockpit in polarized crystal green/gun metal (RB 3362/004) and I'm satisfied with them so far.

I really like my Persol 2720s. They're marketed as the 007 glasses from one of the Bond films, but don't let that deter you.
