Good morning Hubbers, from a miserable GP.

 

Anyone used these guys before? Seems they made give DÁrcs a run for their money. Been buying DArcs since forever and been pleased with their customer service and pricing. New glasses look and feel great too.

Ive bought several casual pairs, very happy so far.

Optically they seem to work as advertized - polarized and reduced glare.

 

Ive bought a photochromatic pair as well, have not used these yet.

 

I have also not tested the warranty.

Coincidentally I ordered some this morning and just received notification they have been shipped so should know soon. Just took a chance with ordering them.

Reviving the thread for a classic Friday rant.

I've had a pair of "originals" for a while. Bought it on a Black Friday sale R450,00 instead of R650. I needed something sports-casual for e.g. running, paddling, etc. where I won't be too sorry if I lost it in water, broke the frame, etc. General reviews were limited but decent, but my impressions not so much:

  • The "feel" is on the cheap side. Feels more like R150 glasses than a R650 pair
  • "HDo (High Definition optics) lenses" is anything but High Definition. It really does not compare to High Definition Optics with an ® from Oakley.
  • The anti-glare coating wore off after 1 year. Customer service claims that it shouldn't affect UV protection, but I'm not sure. I've ordered a replacement pair of lenses in Dec 22, but they keep getting backlogged due to shipping issues.

So, ja, wouldn't recommended.
