Just got a silver and gold pair in the mail an I am quite pleased with them.
They feel a little weird on the nose but that's because I'm used to sunglasses with a nose piece, on these the frame sits on your nose.
But otherwise both pairs arrived in perfect condition, they got a fair weight to them so I don't feel like I'll snap 'em.
Also, the tint on them is great... very retro.

Wow! What good quality! These glasses are made of metal so they have a nice weight to them. They were the perfect addition to the Elvis costume.

I would not recommend these sunglasses. My husband wore them for about an hour or two and he broke out in red whelps. I would find a better quality pair.

I ordered these things because, as they are slightly more expensive than most of the novelty 'Elvis' style sunglasses for sale on this site, I hoped they'd be of slightly better quality. Don't be fooled. These glasses are just as crappy as anything you'd pay $4 for. When they arrived, the silver colored paint/applique was already peeling off the frame and the lenses aren't actually tinted. Instead, a colored film is layed over the glass so, when you put them on, everything is dark and hazy, like the lenses have a layer of dirt on them that you can't wash off. DON'T BUY THESE unless you just plan to use them as part of a costume, or intend to dispose of them quickly. For regular use, they are intolerable.

You can't be Elvis without these, unless you look like Elvis, in which case, good for you. I don't have a really wide face, but these were a little tight on me, and you can't really bend the arms out because they are metal, but the frame is plastic and I didn't want to snap them.

I ordered these to replace a pair of gold retro Elvis shades which I lost in the ocean. I was quite impressed with the quality of these sunglasses, for the price. They look awesome, and are sturdy. They also have UV protection, which rocks. I wear these when I perform concerts, and at first I had a little trouble with them slipping off my face when I sweat, but this was easily fixed with 2 of those little sticky rubber pads that come in an eyeglass repair kit. That's why I didn't give 5 stars, they really should come with the rubber pieces. However, all in all, I think they were a good deal and I'm a very satisfied customer.
