Just but $20 sunglasses, but get like 3 pairs. Sunglasses tend to break a lot - out of use, misuse and outright accidents. Most cheap sunglasses designers pretty much imitate current popular styles, so if that's what you are worried about, people aren't going to notice the difference.

In fact, the only people who would truly care what brand of sunglasses you have are pretty much idiots. And the only way anyone would probably ever notice the brand of sunglasses you have is if you showed them...in which case you are just as much of an idiot and I hope your $400 gold-rimmed Oakleys fall off as you're crossing the street and get ran over by a truck.


As much as I agree with you (though they're not really idiots), I can't go into a store and buy sunglasses off of one of those racks. Every pair I've purchased, while looking just fine, has broke within a week even with careful use. They're so shoddily made it's not even funny. I paid no more than $60 for my Fossil sunglasses and they're the sturdiest sunglasses I've owned.

I was exaggerating a bit, of course. The brand of sunglasses you wear does not indicate whether you are an idiot or not. In fact, the brand of anything you wear does not say shit about you in the least - However, if you think that it does, then you are an idiot.

And I believe we agree, that $2 gas station revolving rack sunglasses break in a week regardless of what you do with them. They have like...and expiration period or something. I dunno.

Really though, nobody gives a shit what brand of sunglasses you wear, people. Hats, jeans, shoes, shirts - all of those are easy to spot designer wears (easy to imitate as well ) but sunglasses...wow, nobody really cares...except maybe you. You know who you are.

In my experience, $20 sunglasses last much longer than $100 ones and are also much more expendable, so sturdiness is hardly an issue as far as I am concerned.

halcyon although i do agree with your points the reason why most people would buy the real designer brands over fake ones (lets just say in the case that they look exactly the same) is because 100 percent of the time they are far better made and always last longer. i dunno wat bullshit 100 dollar sunnies you are buying but its worth that extra 80 bucks to get something that has been built well and looks rank
