I need to buy some new sunglasses.
I always had sunglasses common black and gray lens, but this time I am thinking about buying frogskins colored with iridium mirrored lenses.
But do these glasses are versatile as the black ones? You can use any type of clothing or any time, without attracting much attention?

I was thinking to buy this pair, what you guys think? they look good?

+Red is a vibrant lens. I would say it can go with most clothing, but it's not neutral. Through the lens, they look similar though.

I wouldn't say they are as versatile as polish black/grey. Personally I wouldn't wear crystal black/+Red with anything business casual (unless you consider dress pants and a nice polo as business casual) or dressier, but it'll work for anything below that.

Ok
For more serious situations at work or something like that of course they would not, but something more classic.

I think they use in situations of friends, family, beach etc. ..

What do you guys think of the combination of crystal black / + red, looks good?

Another one I experienced in my local shop was polished clear / violet.



Wich one the looks better?

I was in the store right now to prove these glasses, and felt that the frame of crystal black plastic very fragile and of low quality, rather than the normal frames, true?

also tasted some holbrook, and the quality was much better.

The Holbrooks are a lot more comfortable to wear indeed. So for comfort, I'd always go with a holbrook.
A Frogskin is more classic, but I cannot wear them for longer than two hours. As they are gonna hurt behind my ears. The Holbrooks, I can wear them just all day long.

but the problem is not this, but the material of frogskins that seemed very fragile, do you agree?

at least I felt a crystal black plastic fragile and light.

I'm torn between the VR46 or Moto Gp.

Someone has holbrook motogp? is versatile for everyday use?

Someone has warm gray lenses?

Today I went to a store to prove oakley glasses and I really liked the Holbrook Valentino Rossi has warm gray lenses.

For situations indicate that these lenses? They are good to use on the beach with lots of sun, or let in too much light?

Also tasted the model motgp with emerald iridium, but do not know why it was strange in my face, perhaps to be mirrored lens.
