Looking for a place with the mother load selection of sunglasses
Ive been up and down Queen west and Yonge st a dozen times in the last month in all the trendy clothing shops and convenient stores and what ever other hole in the ground has glasses on a rack. Its all garbage. I dont want to pay 200 for a pair I will end up loosing over the side of a boat cruise or some shit either at an expensive name brand store.
Ive checked out the flea market at keele and Sheppard but same generic knock off gino plastic garbage there too for 10 bux each.
Anyone know where to get cool shades that are in the 50 - 100 range that arent nessesarily designer or designer knock offs, which are quality?
There HAS to be somewhere with the mother load selection around.

Ray Bans really aren't that expensive. Just order a pair online.

I totally would love to buy online, but buying glasses without trying them on is sketchy. Kinda like any clothing.
I suppose I could find a pair I like in a store and then order them.
edit* who sells lots of Ray Ban in TO? Honestly Ive had the same pair of shades for over 4 years and I just recently had to retire them due to an unfortunate encounter with *cough CZ cough* so I havent even been shopping for shades in a long time.

I bought mine online and got the perfect pair. The Ray Ban site is great...it tells you if the glasses are made for small or large faces. I mean honestly, you *should* have a general idea of what looks good on you by now?
Just Google some shit on face shapes + sunglasses if you're unsure.
