    I have two pars of Oakley Polarized. One pair of Monster Dogs with the amber lens, and I just got the Gascan with the Matte Black Frame and mirrored lens. I'll probably always wear Oakley.

    Oh now you gotta get me started with sunglasses!! LOL!! Well lets see I have a pair of the Magneseum Oakley's with the fire red lens the big ones. I have a pair of Gold Gargoyles that I have had for a few years, used to have a pair of Ken Griffey Jr. Gargoyle performance wraps with the blue lens til after about 4 years I finally lost them. Then here lately just been kinda wearin some cheapy's but thinkin bout investin in another pair, just don't know what to get yet........I wish Gargoyles were still made cause I really did like their styles and durability.

    And for sport shades I like Briko and Rudy Project. I wear them cycling and climbing and they work great and stay put.

    I've got 3 pairs of Oakleys, 1 pair of Ray Bans and 1 pair of Dolce & Gabbana. I have to say that they are all very nice and have unique style and qualities. The Oakleys are great for sports and 1 pair are more everyday wear (whiskers). The Ray Bans and D&G's are very nice and classy when wearing a suit or dressed up.

    I started off with a pair of Ray Ban gold-frame aviators, then graduated to a pair of Revo Curies, a pair of Porsche Design Boxter (aluminum frame) glasses, a pair of Oakley 'Michael Jordan' style tortoise, a pair of Ray Ban Italian-framed polarized half-aviators, a pair of purple-steel FireFlys (my surfing days).....but on a trip to Sicily, I bought a pair of Persols. Between the Ray Ban Polarized and the Persols, the others are rarely worn.

    I just received this carbon fiber official Ferrari aviator sunglasses (made in Italy by same maker for Montblanc and Tom Ford).

    IMO I own many pairs of Sunglasses from Louis Vuitton to Diesel (no chrome heart yet). I am quite impressed by the quality of Ferrari Sunglasses

    For those who did not know, Enzo wore only Persol sunglasses. I am going tomorrow to buy a pair of Persols or some nice Prada shades. I wore my Ray Bans out in 5 years of hard usage. Ray Bans are built great, I just want a more fashionable pair.

    I've been wearing Kaenon sunglasses for the past few years, and love 'em. Kaenon was started by a former Oakley employee, and while I've never had Oakleys, I'm impressed with the Kaenons.

    I've had Ray Ban, Maui Jim, Revo, Serengeti, and Nikon in the past. I liked them all in their time, and would probably buy all again but Ray Ban, which seem to have gone down in quality in recent times.

    I have a pair of ray ban eyeglasses that say 'made in china' so that could explain the drop in quality.

    Just bought a pair of YNIQ Sun One Aviator. Company started by Jon Olsson, the skier famous for driving his SV670 with roof box in the Gumball3000. Looks great!

    since I cannot post a link to YNIQ (?), google it! ;-)

    Morpheus's magical stay on shades in the Matrix. He's so badass that the lenses just stick to his face.

    I want that.

    My girlfriend got me some Ray Ban P's in carbon fiber, I want to say they're the 8302 model. They're absolutely fantastic.

    They are very flexible, and if anything a little front-heavy because the frames don't have any weight. Definitely my favorite glasses. I try not to wear them often, but I can't help it. :cool:

    Smith Optics.

    I have had four different slider frames over the last 13 years, and I have loved them.
    The clarity of the lens is remarkable.
    (they actually say Made in France)

    They have saved my eyes on from rocks, bugs, and wind. I like having glasses that stay on my head at high speeds. (145mph thus far)

    I am currently wearing the Interlock Trace frames, with polarized lenses.
    These are actually my first set of polarized lenses, and I cant not have them now.

    Ton's of Oakley's, I hunt with with a director at Oakley so tons of free swag for me and my wife and sons.

    Most of the other brands I see look like they are designed for Metro's.
