Picking sunglasses is hard for me. They are kind of like that pair of old workboots you just love to death. But you need a good pair. They are really a personal preference, because of how they fit and how you like the style and such.

But make some reccomendations to me. I need a new pair.

I'm not going to buy some cheap-o pair, this is something I don't mind spending money on.

Post name, pics, and price if you can.

I was looking at these: Oakley canteens.

Cant go wrong with any set of Oakley's. I'm pretty fond of the gold irridium lenses. Even in overcast conditions they tend to brighten things up instead of darkening like the standard black lenses.

I was toying with getting some Oakley's. I love M-frames.

I've had pro M frame oakleys and square wire 2.0...i've extensively worn five's, pennys, and some other older styles.

Oakleys in general are great.

are these every day sunglasses? work only? winter only?
Narrow it down a bit and i can give some more advice.
