so what brands make aviators in a size less than 50? I havent been able to find Ray Bans in a size 50 so I'm guessing they don't exist.

I'm Rick James *****! I agree, they're a little loud. That's why I'm leaning more towards the Barton Perreira Swindlers (few posts up).

well, they are only one of the most ubiquitous sunglass models ever. Do you really need a specific brand name?

So these are my options (any suggestions/opinions welcomed). I'm most likely going to pick up two pairs out of this bunch, one square and one aviator style.

Barton Perreira Swindler (Steel Nightfall/Polarized)
