Default Bolle, and Oakly five, 3.0 sunglasses?

I'm really looking at some good sunglasses, my friend and I were fishing the other day (good day btw, I got 12, he got 10!), I had my 30$ dockers, he had his 70$ raiders...

So since then, I've been looking around for a good deal on some good glasses. I found some 100$ Bolle Morphs on sale for 40 bucks (). Seems like a really good deal to me. Any have any experienced for these? Or just bolle's in particular?

Also found some saw Oakly Five's, 50 bucks. Good deal or not? It's retail (I think ), but they're Oalkys and a pretty popular brand. Anyone use these one's?

Thanks!

I wear polarized Oakley Fives. They are great sunglasses. I think the regular Fives retail for around $80, the polarized are more. If you found a new pair for $50, it's a pretty good deal.

Bolle were the absolute only sunglasses that I'd wear for years. Having said that, now that I've gone to Oakley's, I like just as well. Either way, you'd be happy.

What's wrong with your Dockers though? If there's nothing wrong with the glasses you have, it seems to me that your money could be put to better use.

Listen, I am going to be the guy that is brutally honest about this, you all can hate me or thank me whatever you think is right.

BassBoss, you made a post only a week ago asking for prayers because your family were going through a difficult time and might even possibly lose your house. Now you make a post talking about spending 40-70 dollars on sunglasses? Where are your priorities? Why in the world would you even be thinking about new sunglasses when you currently own a pair? I know your a young guy, but its time to wake up and smell the roses, there are things in life much more important than sunglasses, like food, shelter, and paying your bills. Rant off -- again sorry if I offended anyone and this is out of line, but C'MON MAN!!!!!!

I have to agree with Tav. This is kind of ridiculous Sammy. There's nothing wrong the pair you've got so why spend money you shouldn't be spending on something you already have?

I eluded to this in my post, but just a little more subtle. I really have to agree with Tav, Bassboss.

Boss is a good kid but he dreams alot. He's always about high dollar equipment that we know he ain't going to get. Like the sunglasses
He's playing football in his dreams. He's a dreamer, but Sammy is a good kid

Sammy is a good guy, I have spoken with him many times. It is easy for a young guy to sidetracked with the way things are today. Was just trying to remind him to keep his priorities.

y'aller right, more important stuff the sunglasses, for sure. I thought this post might bring up a little ruckus about the matter. My parents said, "save your money, let us worry about the bills for now."

btw, here's the link to the oakley's. http://oakleyvault.com/product/fives...aster-_-30-739

Polarized or not?

Non Polarized. On Okley's you will see "POLARIZED" on the lower left eye lens.
