These were stylish and very lightweight. The build quality is great, just like al Maui Jims that I have tried on. However, I do not like the lack of coverage. I was still squinting in the Texas sun while wearing these. If I'm going to spend $200+ dollars on sunglasses, they had better get rid of all my eye fatigue. In my opinion, sunglasses should make you feel completely comfortable to open your eyes as wide as you'd like in the glaring sun. Style takes a back seat to function in my opinion. I had never owned aviators before and admittedly I did not try any on in the store before getting these. I may have been able to save myself the trouble by doing so. I do like the way they look and feel but they need to protect my eyes more. I got some Maui Jim Peahis with bronze lenses and I LOVE THEM! They are a bit heavier since they are glass lenses but they completely cover my field of vision and I can keep my eyes wide open without feeling any glare or eye fatigue. There is no light creeping in from the top, bottom, or sides with Peahis. I'd recommend them if you have a larger face.
