I've owned numerous pairs of Oakleys, they are exceptional quality, but I loose glasses maybe once a week. I can't ever remember where I set them down so I just buy cheap glasses anymore. I have four or five pairs of bombers that I usually find at marina's for about 20 or so dollars. Good enough for me and if I loose them I have back up pairs stashed in my boat and truck.

I go with the Dragon "Box" Polarized.

Only thing I wish is they would float. Lost two pair.

A great cross between goggles and glasses.
And only $80-$90. The lenses are plastic, but they are interchangable, so its easy to pop in new ones. I got these, SG-1. Made for paratroopers.

well i hate tell you guys this but my step son works at maui jim. i have 2 pair right now. best glasses i have ever had on. the pair i was wearing today only weigh 11 grams. don't even know they're on your face. there are lighter ones also. they wouldn't work for boating. i wear the mj sports for this. maui jim is also a great company to work for. they treat there people like they are all family. they could teach a lot of companys how to treat their employees. they encourage their employees & their families to wear their glasses. so i pay a little more for mj than you guys pay for gas station glasses. they are very easy to deal with on the customer service end also.

For years now I have used Maui Jim's. They wrap well and no glare. Heck, they'll even repair yours if you break them or damage them for $18.00!!! I did it twice now. They stopped making one pair of mine so they sent me the newest version new for free!

These glasses float, so they have to be super light...Nice wrap around frame that blocks out wind.

:cool:

Yep, that's what I have. Love them. Glass lenses don't scratch easy, polarized, and they have a coating on the lenses that resist water spots. Got them at sunglasshut. Kind of pricy but well worth it www.revo.com they are actually the mdl. 3050 Flex

Costa Del Mar Fathom with a blue lens are fantastic. Wouldn't buy another.
