Bolle sunglasses are worth a look

Reviewing: Bolle 10809 Montauk
Purchased at: Academy     Price: $120.00 USD

With gas at $3.50/gal, my budget could not aford a pair of Maui Jim's sunglasses and I did not have very good luck with Revo brand.Therefore, I looked for a quality pair sunglasses around $100 and this is what I found.

These glasses are both fashionable & comfortable with gray polarized lenses providing 100% UV protection.The earpieces have a rubber grip that helps secure the glasses if you look down, but do not introduce any discomfort. Spring hinges will add durabilty and comfort and the nose pads are comfortable even after 8 hours of wear.

These men's glasses are a medium fit.In retrospect, I wish I would have purchased slightly larger frames.

In addition to the gunmetal lens and frame, a sandstone lens/shiny brown frame are an option.

Overall, I think I made a pretty good purchase at about a third of what I would have spent if I had bought Maui Jim's. I would recommend.

I wish we could see a picture of your new shades! While I would not purchase sunglasses over $50 because I would cry if I broke or lost them, I think it is great that you were able to find the quality that you were looking for for a fraction of the price. I am sorry, however, that the savings is going into your gas tank instead of your wallet...:-(

These look great. I am going to pass this on to my son. Let him know he doesn't need to pay a fortune for sunglasses. Thanks

I just get the 1 to 5 dollar glasses with UV protection. They are much easier to replace when the kids break them :0) Glad you found a quality pair for an affordable price!

I never spend mor ethan $10 for sunglasses, I am a cheapo, my kids tend to get ahold of my stuff and destroy it so I don't spend too much on anything. And my husband tends to swipe my sunglasses every chance he gets, so that is another reason not to buy anything of great quality or large price.

My husband lost his Maui Jim's and is so depressed... I'll have to tell him about these. They look very nice for a little over half the price...

These are very nice sun glasses, I wouldn't be able to get something like this for my husband tho, he is forever losing his sunglasses.

I do a much better job keeping up with the more expensive glasses than the drugstore variety ones.
