Who has seen these and what ya think? LINK

This is exactly what I've been looking for, bigger frames without the fat frames.

2nd question, what do you think resell value of harpoon 580g in 90% condition (brand new frames with minute cosmetic lens scratches that don't affect vision)?

TIA.

I gotta tell ya, Larry..

Those things are terrible.

They look like cheesy knock off of those big arse bug eye sunglasses that girls wear.

I think thick frames should all come in white. Everyone entitled to their opinion.

Not for me. Look a little feminine.

I would have to try them on for size reasons. I wear the Man-O-War's for my big mellon. Mantas don't look that bad though.

I have big dome/schnozz and I think these would give better coverage.

To my other question, how have OBrs done trying to resell?

I think they look fine. I like the bigger lenses on fishing glasses.

Check ebay. You can get new in box pairs of 580g typically for 170-180ish though on there.

It used to be lower than that on ebay. My first pair of 400g I got around 2010 were $100 on there new in box. Second pair of 580g a couple years later, $160. Got a pair this past summer of brine 580g for $180.

I mean yea you always have a shite load listed at 200+ but if you're willing to wait you can find a pair for 180 within 2 or 3 days pretty consistently. Harpoons maybe 10 bucks more.

No cheese there. Just look like a ladies model.

I don't even remember what model I have. My green are brines, the blue I forget. Bigger lenses.

I really only wear them fishing or driving sometimes. When I'm stylin, ray ban aviators baw.

I need to get some wayfarers again, and not lose them this time.

I have a large dome as well, and Permits are great for me.
