I have a set of the Maui Jims titanium sport. They are great because I have a fat head and other models tend to spring the arms and feel tight.
The only issue I have with the jims is the stress fractures where the arms meet the lenses which will soon give way completely. Had them for 5 years so not over bothered.

Nice find Craig - post back here when you get them with an idea of how robust they are. I've yet to find a pair of unbreakable glasses.

I like these but they don't really suit me, same with Oakley.Originally posted by realityhack View PostI've been wearing 'Bloc' sunglasses for cycling, they do the job - very clear. Never invested too much in glasses as I tend to stand on/sit down on/forget them somewhere, usually once every 2 years if I'm doing well.
Think I'll go with these. Seem to be fairly good value.

I've been wearing a pair of "Oakley's" bought in Greece a few years ago that cost me 8 euro

Been wearing maui jims for a few years. My wife (dispensing optician) recomended them, before she gave up work. Very good lenses, wish i'd have chosen a different frame to the one I have but overall I have been very impressed.Originally posted by ~Craig~ View PostGot to get some aviators for holiday. Randolph Engineering look very good and have good reviews. Have also been looking at Maui Jim...anyone any experience of these?
I'm after quality rather than label
Edit: These are similar to the ones I have...tulip, that's the first time I've ever seen the price.
