I've had a pair of Costa Reeftons that I received as a gift and have had for awhile.

I seem to have misplaced them and am looking for some replacement sunglasses, I liked the Costas but they seem kind of overpriced, especially considering the warranty is kind of hit and miss now.

Any recs for other brands/styles I should try? I have a large head.

Maui Jim is the best lenses. Not frames, but definitely best lenses.

Eta: Stay away from Luxottica brands. They have shite customer service and warranties.

I’m horrible when it comes to taking care of glasses. I either lose them or break them with a sad regularity. I started buying Shady Rays and have been very happy with them.

I have a pair of Krewe sunglasses that have some of the best lenses I’ve worn including rayban, costa, Maui Jim, etc.

I've been impressed with Shady Rays. You lose or damage them, they send you a new pair for free.

Daily use? What’s your primary activity when wearing?

I have had the same pair of Ray Bans since 2006.. I think they are called Predator 2... The only thing is that when folded the tips have scratched the lens.. Not in my line of site..

Driving.

For the folks recommending Shady Rays, I was looking into those. They seem to have great customer service.

Having had all the expensive brands go get Goodr sunglasses. I know Varsity Sports has them and you can buy 4 pair for what you pay for Maui Jim's I have and Goodr are just as good quality

Ive had costas, raybans and oakleys. The raybans are by far the best made, most sturdy frames of the 3. They probably arent the most durable but feel good on my face. Currently using oakleys as my prescription sunglasses to drive and they are good clear lenses.

Goodr is solid for cheaper shades. In no way are they just as good as my Maui Jim's though
