How much do you spend on sunglasses?

Question

and are cheap sunglasses better or worse than expensive designer ones?

Answer 1

Look at it this way - 20 pairs of $15 sunglasses are probably going to last you FAR longer than ONE $300 pair ;);););)

Answer 2

I typically spend about $20 for a pair but usually I get them on sale, besides sometimes you may end up losing them so whats the point of spending $100 or more on a pair that you'll lose or break. I think Cheaper sun glasses are better sometimes even though you may buy designer ones doesn't mean they'll last long.

Answer 3

Well depends of what you buy ?
I have a friend that spends top dollars in designers sunglasses and other that buy affordable ones and never cheap copies ..actually both look like nice and good sunglasses to me.
Other good brands are Playboy and Puma.

Answer 4

You can get reasonable sunglasses at Forever 21 for around $5. They do break if you're not careful though. I personally do not see any advantage in designer sunglasses, except the label.

Answer 5

I buy designer ones now. I used to buy the cheap ones all the time like 10-20 dollars and I end up breaking them and losing them. So I decided to invest in an expensive designer pair and believe me... You are a lot more careful with them.

Answer 6

I think the more expensive ones are totally worth it.. my buddy has a pair that are the exact same shape as mine but a different lens and made by a fake company and when I put his on I get a headache after 5-10 minutes of wearing it, while these ones I dont

Answer 7

I have spent up to $400 dollars on a pair of sunglasses. I have like 30 high fashion glasses.

There no different and break the same. If you can't easily afford it, don't do it.

Answer 8

most of my sunglasses are Maui Jim and cost between $200 - $300. I don't ever lose them, don't break them and wear them into the ground. And the bonus, they will fix them if I ever do break them for a fee.

I think that the more expensive brands are better at blocking the sun rays, and better for driving.

Answer 9

I wear Script Glasses with the transitions lenses.
I wear a pair of $20.00 Sunglasses which fit over my script glasses with shields on the sides to keep the sunlight out of my eyes. They are called Solar Shields by Polaroid. I found them at Walgreen's.

Answer 10

I guess $10 to $15 from Walmart a lot. They are ok, but I only wear them to keep out the sun. I don't like how I look with shades on so I could care less if they were designer or not.
