Parallel Eyewear Acadia Polarized Sunglasses for Men & Women - UV400 Protection, Lightweight Square Frame Sports Glasses with Hard Case - Perfect for Running, Cycling, Fishing & Outdoor Activities

These are some nice shades. I mostly wear Ray-Ban or Maui Jim and always polarized but decided to give these a shot. These remind me of some of the cheaper Ray-Ban in that they are plastic and the lenses. I would compare these to more of a mid-level $30 to $50 shade max. The view through the lenses is typical of any polarized lenses I've worn. If you have a big head/face, these are a little narrow. Wearing them for any length of time with a hat hurt my ears.These are good looking sunglasses. They aren't fancy. Standard hinge plastic sunglasses. However, these do have proprietary polarized lenses and they are pretty good. The glasses themselves are fairly well made, lightweight, and comfortable to wear. I am a complete sunglass snob and I own some really good ones. Some cost 4x the $95 being asked here. Are they better made? Noticably. Do they perform better in day to day life? Nope. Good value here. Recommend.These are a pretty decent pair of sunglasses, but I'm trying really hard to figure out why the company is charging $95 for them. To me, they feel no different than a pair of KastKing or Fishaholic brand sunglasses. In the description, it says these are plastic frames (so are most other cheap brands) and polarized lenses using NEOX H2O polarized polycarbonate. I don't know what that is, but they feel no different than the $25 lenses you would find elsewhere.These will be great for my fishing trip, but if I lose them, I probably won't spend the money to replace them unless they really impress me. So far, I don't expect that to happen.These sunglasses are very nice. They are comfortable on. I really like that they have protection against the sun. It is so important to protect your eyes from the sun’s harmful rays. I felt that this did that very well.It looked pretty good on. I didn’t feel like it was too heavy or tight or anything. I thought it was pretty flattering. It covered a nice range of my vision.It felt like it was well made. It seemed to be of decent quality. It didn’t break or anything.I like the polarized feature.The only thing is the value doesn't seem great for what you get. While they are fine, they don't really feel like $100 glasses....Overall, I am pleased and would recommend it.As with the other pair of Parallel glasses I have. I love the clarity and comfort. Highly recommendThese are amazing! I just love how the frame has been coated with a sof layer. The rubberized details have been placed perfectly to keep them on your face without being to close to fog up from sweating in the Florida heat or snagging your hair. I've received many compliments and just love the case they came with as well!Okay, first, these are very nice sunglasses, lightweight but seemingly sturdy, with clear, sharp lenses with no distortion or fogging. For me, they fit well, a comfortable width and not too tight and headache-inducing on the sides. The nose arch rides nice and light on the nose, and the slight wrap of the rounded-rectangular lenses does a nice job of stopping sunlight infiltration (or flying objects) from the sides.The earpieces are just a tad long on me and so don't bend directly behind my ears, which may allow them to slide down my nose eventually, but no issues for now, likely due to the light weight and slightly grippy nose pads. I just wish they were user-adjustable. The polarizing effect seems to also work well, taking the glare off water or other objects quite effectively. Great case too!My only question is the price. I'm not sure what, exactly, makes these worth $95. No doubt they are far superior to the $25 or less disposable ones from Wal-Mart, but (beyond the excellent, sturdy, stylish case) there is nothing that puts them far above other mid-priced ($50-$65) sunglassses I've owned. The style is very nice though, and I'm by no means knocking anything about them - I like them a lot. The price is just something that everyone will need to decide about for themselves.The packaging and case these come in are very nice, and generally speaking the style of them is pretty good if you have a wider type of face. They are good coverage for fishing or outdoor sports, and the gray/blue tint is a bit weird but seems to work well. That being said, my first impression of these when unboxing them was "Hmm... these feel a lot like the $5 glasses you buy at a truck stop - thin, lightweight nylon and plastic lenses. I think what is going on here is a very inexpensive pair of sunglasses in a very nice case with a very healthy margin for the seller. Sunglasses can be a real racket (you can literally buy sunglasses like these on the street in China (without a case) for around $2 in places!So bottom line, they are functional, but I don't think they are worth the $100 selling price when compared to other name brand options available at big retailers when they go on sale.
