Bought these as a toss em rounds. The lens shape and frame size fit my round face nicely. These lenses are great for sunlight or indoors and the overall weight is feather-light. My only complaint is that caps push down on the flatish frame arms, requiring me to wear the arms on the outside of my cap, similar to Oakleys. -[...]

Contrary to the other reviewer, my glasses have not cracked or anything.
With the included neoprene case and microfiber cloth, I've kept my shades in perfect condition.

I've never owned another pair of sunglasses so I cannot compare the durability of these to any other brand. However, I think that as long as you treat these sensibly, you shouldn't be worried about them breaking. Just don't take them skateboarding and when you fall on your face, expect the frames to still stand up.

The only thing I don't like about these glasses is that I thought the lenses would be tinted and opaque but in fact they were gray (just like the product description said!)
That was a reading error on my own part, so no negative points for this product.

I do agree with the other reviewer that these things are very comfortable and are hard to shake off your head, so they should be fine on most amusement park rides (I went on splash mountain, thunder mountain, and Everest Expedition at disney world, Orlando, FL with no problems - but ride at your own expense!)

Very nice and good product, but too small for me.
I will love to get one bigger, that will cover better. Also will like to get a green one when they make it.

My tennis shop was selling these same exact glasses for $199. These are great to play tennis in. Makes the yellow ball really stand out.

This is my third pair of of the Bolle Kickbacks. The first pair, the lens cracked almost immediately, the second pair I lost after a year and the third pair I lost in a week. They are very nice looking glasses and provide nice sun filtering. Not sure how they would last for the long term. The nosepiece is connected directly to the plastic lens and with repeated flexing it would seem that the lens would be prone to cracking. The first pair I had cracked quickly because I had a neck strap attached which caused additional flexing resulting in the crack. I have to say Bolle has excellent customer service. They replaced the first pair where the lens cracked as well as a different pair that I damaged with no questions asked. I would definitely buy another pair of Bolle sunglasses. I think $80 is a little pricey for these, $50-60 would seem more appropriate. As usual I ordered from Amazon with quick and non-problemmatic service!!!

These sunglasses are very comfortable to wear. In fact they are likely the most comfortable glasses I've ever owned. Having said that, I am otherwise extremely disappointed with these sunglasses. They do not cut glare or improve visability any better than a pair of 25 dollar shades. I also found my pair to be of extremely poor construction. The lens cracked after about a month. I've owned good sunglasses before such as Ray Bans so I know what to expect from a pair of high end sunglasses and these don't even come close. I would say that these sunglasses are on par with a pair of 20 dollar shades you find on the rack at a department store. There is a one year warranty with these so I will return them for a new pair but the next pair will definitely be ray bans or oakleys.
