Y’all don’t want to use high impact polycarbonate lenses? I sure wouldn’t want a jig or tungsten weight to shatter a glass lense into my eye. I have had close contact with this scenario twice over the years. Poly lenses saved my eyes.

You can get the WyleyX in the $125 range. I've been wearing them for years.

I have had close contact with this scenario twice over the years. Poly lenses saved my eyes. You make a good point steez. This, is a chance I’m willing to take. One thing I did do, after having a friend learn for us the hard way, is wearing clear safety glasses while fishing at night. My buddy went to unhook a fish out of a net and ended up with trebles in his eye and nearly losing it…I for the longest time just took my sunglasses off at dusk, now I switch to clear…for safety

Oakley Deep Blue Prism polarized. I don’t remember what I paid for them, but they work really well and I don’t think they were too expensive. Bought em off a tool truck with some other stuff that day. Just picked up a pair of these last week after my other shades ended up at the bottom of Falcon. I like the Gibston frames better than my old Straight Jacket frames, but I'm not sold on the Deep Blue Prism lenses yet. They didn't cut the glare as well as the Black Iridium lenses in my other pair. Got em for $145 online, regular $210.

Looking to buy a good pair of polarized sunglasses. I know Costa are really good but they come w a big price tag. Any suggestions for ones closer to $125 580g blue lenses, 140.00 bought mine here. https://www.ebay.com/itm/185772961364frames are med to lg, vision is excellent and they stay on at 75 mph, so far.

If you end up with glass lenses make sure to wear them with one of those “straps” or “croakies” those puppies will sink to the bottom in a jiffy, ask me how I know
