Sunnies, shades, sunglasses, whatever you call 'em... whatchu got?

I have Oakley Half Jacket Prizm Dark Golf lenses and Maui Jim's with rose glass lenses.  The Oakley are fine, but the Maui Jim's are superior in every way.  Unfortunately their price reflects that.

I played all last year in Ray-Ban Original Wayfarers polarized and liked them. However, I'm currently looking at Oakleys. Particularly at the Dark Prizm Golf lenses. Haven't quite decided on which frame, it's between the Flak 2.0 XL and the Portal X. Decided it has to be the Dark (not Black) Prizm for brighter sun. I can play w/o glasses in cloudy weather. I've decided I don't want Polarized. I'd prefer the Prizm as they provide better definition. Now just need to snag a great deal on them.

1/26 Update: Acquired a pair of Oakley Portal X with Prism Dark Golf lenses. I tried on the Portal X and the Flak 2.0 XL and preferred the fit and coverage of the Portal X. I like the D Prism Dark Golf for the visibility and the improved definition over my polarized Ray-Bans  I was able to take them outside and test for visibility an sun protection ( it's winter here, with ice and snow) When the sun was out, they were great for light reduction. With some overcast the still allowed my good visibility and definition. On darker cloudy days, I don't wear sunglasses. I used to take my glasses off to putt. I'm going to try putting while wearing these, to determine if the increased definition helps.

I’ll post the lineup tomorrow. Not even sure how many I’ve purchased since moving to FL.

So I had Oakley flak jackets with changeable lenses for all different colored golf shirts.....unfortunately in all sports I go and they popped off my head during a basketball game with my nephew...they were stepped on and very broken so I’m in the market.....

anyone have some suggestions for ones like the flak jacket? I’ll probably get them again because they’re nice and light

I'm sporting a pair of bicycle shades my wife got me for Christmas.  They go from clear to dark as the sun changes, so they're perfect for riding my bicycle or playing golf.  I also have a pair of Tifosi glasses that I like.  Both pair are wrap around style.

Look at Tifosi. They have a couple of styles similar to the Flak Jacket.

I need prescription sunglasses. My first pair was a set Of Oakley's with prizm lens. The lenses kept popping out and after many times putting them back in the thin edge cracked. 

Currently using REKS - half the price of Oakleys; quality is just as good. High quality Trivex Lenses.
