Value for money MTB sunglasses

[Wimmas]

Call me cheap (I'm a student) but I got sunglasses from Mr Price Sport @ R120. They're 100% UV protection but not polarized.

 

They look pretty slick and do protect my eyes from the sun rays. They also provide a light vision, it's not dark and one can still see everything as you would if not wearing sun glasses.

 

When I'm all grown and rich I'll get a set of Oakleys for R1800

Aayuni Optical in Observatory have less 30% on adidas evil eyes!

 

Give them a ring! Will get prices in AM

I've just bought some Bolle from Kiwi. 2 pairs for R350.

 

Wasn't prepared to pay over R1100 to replace the lenses on my current glasses.

Had a lot of glasses. Yup Oakley's are good but bit too much coin for what you get. Bolle, decent and a bit old school.

 

Gone the 'cheaper' route and to be honest you pretty much pay for what you get. There is a quote that says "pay extra on glasses, watches and rings. It's the measure of a man" it's true.

 

I got the Rudy photochromtics and hell they are good. got them for a shade over R850 and would pay easily R1500 - R2000 having raced, trained and done long distance driving in them throughout Africa. There are something that are worth money for a purpose and some that exceed the original use.

 

If you have R1000 +/- you really can't go wrong with watching ASG auctions and getting something that will last and serve you well. Jeez, my 2 year old decide they were 'Ella's glasses' and preceded to drag them around the sandy beach house by their arms, on their lenses for a day and they still are hundreds.

I've had these for over 2 years. Great value and they've held up really well. It doesn't say so in the description, but the dark lenses on mine and my GF sets are polarized. Might have changed since.

 

Unfortunately the exchange rate hasn't been kind. I paid less than R300 landed. Bargain!
