5.0 out of 5 stars
Awesome for the Price, June 23, 2008
This review is from: G&G Chrome Metal Silver Mirrored Aviator Sunglasses 3 Pair Special Spring Hinges (Eyewear)
Even though these sunglasses are not perfect when they arrive they have still earned a 5 star rating. I nought 9 pair. 3 silver, 3 green, and 3 red. They look great but they take some work to get there. As any pair of sunglasses, they require some bending to fit your face. So if you get them spend a couple of minutes bending them to you desired preference. And then of course you need to clean the fingerprints off (with warm water and soap).
They had some surface scratches when they arrived. Not any problem when looking through them, and it's not like they are never going to get tiny little surfece scratches on them as you wear them.
I lose and break sunglasses all the time and my eyes are very sensitive to bright light. Aviators are great because they are designed for pilots. They keep the light out of your eyes and give you a wide field of view.
Some people said that they are too dark. Out of the 9 pair I got 1 (one of the green ones) that was really dark. The darkness of the glass is kind of inconsistent among oll the pairs but i like that because you never know how bright it's going to be outside. Some people said that they weren't great for driving, but have you ever driven through the desert. The dark ones are perfect for that. The red pairs are great for driving they are not at all too dark and they are especially good for driving at dawn and dusk, they dim the light enough but let you see what's in the shadows.(the three kinds i got, the green was darkest, the silver was a good darkness, and the red were the least dark)
So overall if you want some great sunglasses for the price, get these. As I said i'm very sensitive to light and these sunglasses are perfect for that. They look great, they work well and they are cheap. If you're like me and lose sunglasses like there's no tomorrow just get a bunch of them, if you want to, try the different colors and enjoy!
SO even though they are not perfect, I love these sunglasses and I definitely recommend them.

Suprisingly, one of the best pair of glasses I have ever bought!, May 21, 2007
This review is from: G&G Chrome Metal Silver Mirrored Aviator Sunglasses 3 Pair Special Spring Hinges (Eyewear)
I will tell you I was skeptical, three pairs of aviator sunglasses for less then a single pair of cheap WallyMart glasses is just unheard of. But to my surprise these are in fact one of the best glasses I have ever bought.
They are large enough to look and feel right on my big head. They are nice and lightweight and don't put a lot of pressure on the bridge of my nose and are very comfortable to wear for a long period of time. And they have a nice dark tint, which is a must for me because I am extremely sensitive to light.
I am definitely going to recommend these to all of my friends and family because these are such a steal at this price. That and the company, Goggles and Glasses, is a pleasure to do business.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Look good, not functional, September 1, 2007
These mirrored aviators look cool as all hell, and they're cheaper than most drugstore sunglasses. That's the upside.
But if you're looking for SUN glasses, look elsewhere. These lenses are horrible and actually increase, instead of reduce, glare. The lenses are also way too dark and block out almost all light. Not good for walking, let alone driving.
The black frames have the darkest lenses, which provide an almost "midnight" effect. This leads to one very good point about the manufacturer, G&G; great customer service.
I contacted the company because the lenses in the black frames were so dark and useless. Their rep, Gary, immediately sent me out a replacement pair of amber lenses, which are only marginally better.
In summation; great look, great price, great customer service, horrible lenses.
You get what you pay for.
