5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome for the Price
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.

2.0 out of 5 stars Look good, not functional
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...

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome for the Price, June 23, 2008
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suprisingly, one of the best pair of glasses I have ever bought!, May 21, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
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.

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.

3.0 out of 5 stars Now a great experience (five stars!) (UPDATED), May 23, 2007
Like everyone said, the glasses came quickly, adequately packaged. However, to my dismay, one of my aviators (I purchased the 1chrome, 1gold, 1black set) had a missing nose guard (my gold one).

After submitting my review, I was quickly contacted by Gary of gogglesandglasses. He apologized for the inconvenience and informed me that he would rectify the situation by replacing the entire order! They have just arrived and are in perfect condition. Their attention to customer service is exemplary. I will purchase again. FIVE STARS.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, Could Be Better, But Good., July 8, 2008
By 
Derek T (Palmdale ,CA USA) - See all my reviews
I bought the three chrome-framed mirrored aviators and I Was Moderately Impressed with my order. I already gave one pair away, and I still have two, so its good to have more than one. They are very, very dark, so their not recommended for driving. So if their going to be given as a gift to a Pre-teen or teenager, they'd be perfect. Also, the "silicon" nose pads are really just plastic. They look awesome, they're very dark ,and don't wear 'em inside. If your obsessing over getting aviators, your search is over. P.S. Your eyes are completely invisible to others if your wearing them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Higher quality than I expected!, June 22, 2011
By 
Bobby G (Bay Area, CA, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I purchased this 3pack in the midst of a mini aviator shopping spree on Amazon, at the end of the day purchasing about 7 pairs for a bit under $30 (3 pairs were with this product, for about $13).

When I received them, I expected them to be cheap, flimsy aviators with possible lens issues (too dark, for example), which is exactly what I paid for. Instead I was pleasantly surprised to find these pairs felt a bit more durable than the average <$5 pair of glasses, and the lenses were great. I obviously haven't worn them too extensively since I've only had them for about a week, but so far no apparent wear and tear after about 4 wears each.

I got this 3 pack to experiment with some color combos, and while I personally don't think the black frames look as good on me as the silver or gold frames, that's certainly no fault of the product, just a personal preference. The other two pairs instantly become the top two of the 7 I ordered (from various manufacturers), and I'd definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for low-price but medium-quality (and I say that in a good way) chrome aviators.

***EDIT: Now that I've had these glasses for several months, I'm still really enjoying them. They haven't shown any sign of wear or tear. The chrome on the lens is still as vibrant as when I first got them, despite having a few trials with sweat and (salt) water.

For general glare reduction from the front, they work well with some moderate reduction. I don't think there is any UV protection. With glare from behind, the inner lenses can catch some of that and cause some distraction, but I don't really mind it too much.

I still think they look like premium aviators. When I need new ones I will definitely purchase these again, and I'm even considering buying some more colors to fill out my repertoire.

I hope this review has been helpful :)
