^No that'd be a cock

Ebay is a great place to find expensive quality sun glasses for cheap, my dad has two pairs of Carreras and a pair of Ray Bans as proof of this. You just need to dig around to find the real deal.

I wasn't aware that Oakley products are associated with cocks. Or maybe I've been a cock (first pair of Oakleys) since 16 at not noticing it

What about FILAs then? I hope my FILA shades won't make me even bigger of a cock.

Anything with a sports brand says cock, to me.

I have found it is real easy to spend money on performance optics. I have a pair of Oakley Flak Jackets with 3 pairs of different tint prescription lenses and I would gladly spend the money again because I only have one pair of eyes and I'm grown attached to them

I can't be bothered to find the picture of Jezza in the M3

No, Oakley's are fine, I have a pair of Crosshairs, and just sold some C-wires. I've grown attached to my Wayfarers though, I use those 95% of the time. Really gotta buy some nice Ray Ban Aviators though.

If your sunglasses have a name you know off the top of your head...

Labcoatguy · May 8th, 2009, 2:32 AM

Mine are licensed replicas from the Matrix Reloaded, but that just makes me a fanboy.

It's a case of "just because cocks wear them doesn't mean they're for cocks".

There's a large number of people in the services that wear them because of how tough the lenses are; we have a stash of Oakley shooting glasses at the house, and I have a pair of Oakley Five's that are at least eight years old that you would think were new if it weren't for the faded Oakley logos.

My sunglasses are elcheapo thingies from SpecSavers with normal UV blocking lenses. They're the only ones with small lenses i coul find. I hate sunglasses with big lenses.

Buba · May 8th, 2009, 6:46 AM

Nonono... Big glasses are teh hawt!

Final Daihatsu · May 8th, 2009, 7:55 AM

I have a pair of sunglasses made by Julbo, they're grey and that's the extent of my knowledge about them.

brydiem · May 8th, 2009, 11:22 AM

Mine are Fiorelli's from last season's range discounted by 50%. Started out at $150AUD, got them for $40AUD from a reputable specialised sunglesses chain along with a lifetime warranty.
I love them, will post a pic if I can be bothered.

geeman · May 8th, 2009, 11:25 AM

Sunglasses seem to have huge discounts often. Mine were originally over 100 euros, but I got them with 80% off. It says Dunlop on them.

Buba · May 8th, 2009, 11:33 AM

The ones I wear in the pic above are RayBan and they were 3 Euros in Thailand

I have recently purchased an Oakley, and since it´s from the Ducati line I am pretty sure it goes pretty high in the Cockometer.

Am I right in saying that wearing a set of those huge sunglasses lowers your iq by around 10 points?

Speedtouch · May 8th, 2009, 10:37 PM

^ I would agree. My sunglasses cost about £15 from Boots. They aren't huge, they aren't a 'designer' design, they aren't trying to be something they're not, they're not bigger than my face, or indeed my eyes, as those are all they need to protect. They look fine and work well enough for me, and thats all I ask of them. (Pic of me with them on, but my hair is better than this now).

I also cannot see why anyone would spend more than £50 on sunglasses unless due to a prescription set, but even so.

Same reason people buy Rolexes...

News flash guys, this isn't the talk about your sunglasses thread.
