I have fake Ray Ban aviators off eBay they were like £22, fuck paying £150+ for shades. They look identical to genuine ones aswell

You need wrap arounds then if you want them to be secure, you are quite a meathead and meatheads suit wrap arounds anyway, know what i mean
Just get a pair of Police shades or sumin, they do a few nice wraparounds

I had a look on eBay but tbh i couldn't really find anything to pick for you, sunglasses are all about personal taste...ones i love you might hate
Just don't get ones with cheesy coloured frames and lenses with like spiky frames, you know the ones you see with a fire-coloured rim and stuff, hate those so much and it just screams I LOVE STEROIDS

I recently got myself a set of carves from my local surfshop, Cracking shades, Really comfy and don't move. They cost me about £55 but you can get them for around £40 online i think.
Note: You will NOT look as cool as me in them, Its impossible.

Done that a few times, rang the bloke who drives the mini bus up to the yard, ask for a lift from somewhere else in town, taking half a bottle of vodka to prevent hangover in the middle of slating a roof or something!
Its ideal if you have nothing planned for the saturday, helps pass the time..

I'd say definately go for a pair of Raybans, they may be expensive but they will last forever plus they do different sizes etc. Don't get the mirrored ones because a lot of shops have these nowadays so everybody is wearing them!

I have these in small because I'm only little and they really are a snug fit, the lens on them does a good job too.

It's piss easy to make the difference between genuine glasses and cheap fakes. Fakes have glare in them and are not polarised. You could have bought the same, non labelled and save £18.
Real quality specs last years, fakes a few weeks... False economy really, plus you end up with shitty glasses. You should try the real stuff and see how much difference there is.

Just dont see the point of splashing out over £100 on some shades when £20-£40 ones will do the job nicely, maybe if money is no object and you live somewhere where you have sun 365 days a year then yeah ok.
That example for your theory is just stupid though..

the £20-40 ones will do as nicely as the £2-£4 ones... And it's not a theory, some people buy fake stuff and pretend it's real, it's not just for sunglasses.

When i wore mine for the first time one of my mates said "they are cool like", and i just said straight away aye they are Fakey McFakes though, only 20 odd quid on eBay
Same with shoes i used to buy expensive trainers, and i'd be tip-toeing around trying not to get them scuffed...whats the point?
Now i spend less on trainers and with spending less it means i can buy new pairs more often so if they get fucked i just buy a new pair without any worrys

Im not a fan of ALOT of modern sunglasses, since the whole covr up most of your face like some kind of retard thing became cool. My Gascan S' are a bit more chunky than most of my stuff but theyre not OTT
The old retro frogskins are a bit done to death but I just want something a bit more wild to add to the fleet.
