I'm looking for an everyday work and pair... My main concern is I want a frame that breathes or vents preventing lenses from steaming up. I work in the construction field and I need something durable too(frame and lense)? other brands better?
I typically buy $20-40 glasses 2-3 pair a year because I'm so rough on them but I want to try a premium pair to see how long it takes before I destroy them. I used to be the same way and went through a pair of sunglasses about once a month. I discovered that if I bought cheap sunglasses I didn't take care of them. If I spent $200 on a pair of sunglasses, I took care of them. You spend 20 bucks on a pair of glasses you set them down and forget about them. You spend 200 on a pair, you always know where they are. Just my theory. You need to pick the frames based on the shape of your melon. As far as the lenses, buy an amber set for low light cloudy days and a blue mirror or green mirror set for sunny days and you are done.

Fantail frame with copper lens fan here. Especially for sightfishing. I wore the Strike King's a while, also had the Hank Parker Mustad polarizing sunglasses and they are both very satisfying glasses if you are looking for a lower price point but the Costa's were just so much better.

Fathom frame, 580 G green lens, love 'em. Have the same frame with a 400P green lens as back-up but they have a scratch on the lens from a drop.
