"When wearing them outside and having the sun on the side or behind you, there is a bad glare on the inside of the lenses."
"This isn't necessarily bad, but it is difficult to pull them out with one hand while driving."
"4 Stars because I was disappointed that they were a bit darker than I hoped and aren t actually polarized."
"But do keep in mind they look and feel cheap, and there are other online budget pairs Ive ordered that kicked more butt for around ten dollars."

"I have owned more expensive brands and, while you get what you pay for, these are very effective for the price."
"I chose the matte black finish because I wanted to avoid a painted color coating that might peel off (as I've had problems with that happening to other pairs of sunglasses), and I am happy I did."

"The case is handy as well, I'm pretty hard on sunglasses, I usually end up sitting on them or loosing them in the ocean or having one of my kids see how far the arm pieces can spread... When wearing them outside and having the sun on the side or behind you, there is a bad glare on the inside of the lenses... I've had other mirror finish lenses and had the same thing happen, so it's just a side effect of having this style of lens."
"I still gave these shades a 5-star review because under ideal conditions, these scrapes don't affect the performance of the sunglasses... Ray Ban has this major slant on some, if not all, of their Wayfarers... This isn't necessarily bad, but it is difficult to pull them out with one hand while driving."
"4 Stars because I was disappointed that they were a bit darker than I hoped and aren t actually polarized... However, they are great for walking around inside stores and the bright lab that I work at and can see... 2 months later: my eyes have adjusted to these and I wear these things everywhere including my labor/delivery job and I ve dropped these things at least 30 times on concrete and road and wood and they are so incredibly sturdy and barely a scratch."
"They definitely behave as a lens with decent UV protection, but they darken what you see, for sure... These sunglasses are certainly going to do their job, and I have not forgotten that they are about 12 dollars... But do keep in mind they look and feel cheap, and there are other online budget pairs Ive ordered that kicked more butt for around ten dollars."
"Since I have a habit of losing brand-name sunglasses and travel a lot, I decided that I needed to go back to cheapy sunglasses but still look good and are polarized... - polarized, check - slightly bigger than the traditional Ray-Bans but not gigantic that I look like a clown, check - super cheap, definite check - look like a boss wherever I go, triple check The main difference between these and the Ray-Ban sunglasses is that they do feel a bit lighter (understandable..... Overall, I'd definitely recommend and would consider buying another pair if I lose my current pair."
"I have owned more expensive brands and, while you get what you pay for, these are very effective for the price... They are easy to pack into my purse and I don't worry about them getting damaged... When you look at the picture of the product you can see the folded frame through the lens and that is an accurate representation of what can be seen through the lens."
"They fit so comfortably and are so lightweight that I almost forget that I'm wearing them. I chose the matte black finish because I wanted to avoid a painted color coating that might peel off (as I've had problems with that happening to other pairs of sunglasses), and I am happy I did... The nose piece does not seem to leave much of a mark when I take them off, and there aren't any sharp raised seams from the plastic casting process that would dig into my skin."

"I bought the crystal clear frames with the silver/gray mirror lenses... The case is handy as well, I'm pretty hard on sunglasses, I usually end up sitting on them or loosing them in the ocean or having one of my kids see how far the arm pieces can spread... The hinges on them, they are very stiff and I was worried just opening them would snap the arm off... When wearing them outside and having the sun on the side or behind you, there is a bad glare on the inside of the lenses... I've had other mirror finish lenses and had the same thing happen, so it's just a side effect of having this style of lens. The reason for four stars is the hinges and I would have to be completely blown away to give five stars to anything... I get they are cheap, but based on the amount of money I paid and what you get, it's a great deal."
"I really like the look and feel of these sunglasses... I still gave these shades a 5-star review because under ideal conditions, these scrapes don't affect the performance of the sunglasses... I saved $175 versus buying name-brand Wayfarers - The front is not slanted like the name-brand sunglasses. Ray Ban has this major slant on some, if not all, of their Wayfarers... - The side arms are stiff, so they stay firmly in place on my face or head. A little too stiff though, so it's also a con (see below) Cons: - the glossy sunglasses I bought are a dust magnet... This isn't necessarily bad, but it is difficult to pull them out with one hand while driving."
"I ve got a big head for a woman and they are a little oversized... 4 Stars because I was disappointed that they were a bit darker than I hoped and aren t actually polarized. Update: so I drove in the daylight with these on and it s makes everything shine like gold with the sun high and bright... I hate the bright sun bouncing off glass and chrome and I just bought glasses that makes them more obvious... I ve become used to the golden bright glare, but still sad they aren t actually Polarized. However, they are great for walking around inside stores and the bright lab that I work at and can see... 2 months later: my eyes have adjusted to these and I wear these things everywhere including my labor/delivery job and I ve dropped these things at least 30 times on concrete and road and wood and they are so incredibly sturdy and barely a scratch."
"They arrive with a really nice set of soft cases, which seems overkill for cheap glasses. Personally, I care 0% about being giving cute cases, and would rather the value be put into the sunglasses themselves... The pictures of the sunglasses on the ad make them look like they might almost be a matte material, which I do prefer... There's some little plastic molding bits that stick out that I chipped off with my fingers myself to get them off... They definitely behave as a lens with decent UV protection, but they darken what you see, for sure... These sunglasses are certainly going to do their job, and I have not forgotten that they are about 12 dollars... But do keep in mind they look and feel cheap, and there are other online budget pairs Ive ordered that kicked more butt for around ten dollars."
"a bit too small for my liking), and they were stylish. I loved them so much, I bought a second pair after I lost them. Once I lost that second pair, I was so mad at myself since I could not find those same Ray-Bans anywhere anymore. Since I have a habit of losing brand-name sunglasses and travel a lot, I decided that I needed to go back to cheapy sunglasses but still look good and are polarized... - polarized, check - slightly bigger than the traditional Ray-Bans but not gigantic that I look like a clown, check - super cheap, definite check - look like a boss wherever I go, triple check The main difference between these and the Ray-Ban sunglasses is that they do feel a bit lighter (understandable... they're $13), but don't feel overly cheap compared to sunglasses at similar price points. Overall, I'd definitely recommend and would consider buying another pair if I lose my current pair."
"* I decided to try these sunglasses because I needed polarized sunglasses to wear in the Arizona bright sunshine. I have owned more expensive brands and, while you get what you pay for, these are very effective for the price... These were very reasonably priced and had a variety of colored frames from which to choose... I bought two pair, coral and pink, Each pair has different lens color, but both protect equally well. I love the way I can have inexpensive sunglasses that offer a variety of frame color... They are easy to pack into my purse and I don't worry about them getting damaged... When you look at the picture of the product you can see the folded frame through the lens and that is an accurate representation of what can be seen through the lens."
"* I took these sunglasses for a week-long trip to the beach and they performed admirably. They fit so comfortably and are so lightweight that I almost forget that I'm wearing them. I chose the matte black finish because I wanted to avoid a painted color coating that might peel off (as I've had problems with that happening to other pairs of sunglasses), and I am happy I did... The nose piece does not seem to leave much of a mark when I take them off, and there aren't any sharp raised seams from the plastic casting process that would dig into my skin. The lenses themselves were just what I needed on bright, sunny days at the beach with the sun reflecting off the water and the sand... The only flaw I've noticed is that the hinge on one of the ear pieces is looser than the other. However, that is hardly a concern when the glasses are being worn."
