I like wearing polarized lenses which greatly reduces glare especially when i’m Near lakes and other bodies of water. It’s quite amazing what a great pair of “Native” eyewear sunglasses can reduce the glare and you can see fish swimming in the water.

I'd like a pair of sunglass frames that would be durable enough to use in the backcountry and that can take prescription lenses .

Intereested in Oakley wires - particularly the 8 Gauge. Large sunglasses that will stay on your head, a range of polarised and non-polarised lenses and a fit that doesn't leak light.

Something for wearing over prescription glasses for keeping the wind and sun out when cycling. Must be breathable and not fog up.

Anything that is impact rated and has distortion-free rose-colored lenses. ❤️
I miss the old Suncloud rose lenses from the 1980s, or the old Serengeti rose lenses from the 90s-00s. Also the Serengeti and Vuarnet green lenses for use on water.

Having owned multiple pairs of Maui Jim, Costas, and Revo.
When you put on the right your vision turns to 200k Extreme-HiDef.
The most important thing is durability of the frame and then of the lenses. Polarization is also important!
I'm looking for HD vision and glass lenses, unless there's something better. 1)Revo -- great frames and amazing lenses 2)Maui Jims -- poor frames, great lenses but lacking durability ... 6)Costas -- lenses are ok, frames are bulky

Most sunglasses are way overpriced, and there have been news exposes about the tremendous markup that manufacturers, or sellers of sunglasses actually make!
In many cases someone purchases super expensive sunglasses, and then takes them out hiking, hunting, or fishing, where they are quickly broken, scratched, misplaced in the woods, or lost overboard!
In many case they perform no better than inexpensive sunglasses!
People who spend time outdoors need a source of high quality sunglasses, that are durable, and which have a large selection of frames and polarized lens color combinations available, that will enhance the outdoor experience.
For example, when I am hiking through a dark forest, I want a pair of Yellow Amber, or Vermilion color lenses which block the blue light, and clarify my vision in low light conditions.
Conversely I might want polarized Dark Green, Blue, or Gray lenses with a mirror coating in very bright conditions like out in the desert, or on the water!
Oh, and they must not cost more than $30.00, and preferably more like $15.00 to $25.00!
I find that FlyingFisherman.com is one of the best sources for all types of sunglasses.

Should Massdrop Partner with My Trail Co?
[image]
My Trail Co is a new company from Colorado, currently selling a few packs, tents and jackets with ambitious plans to expand. MTC emanates from the ashes of Golite, a company that was one of the main catalysts for the ultralight movement in the 2000s. I personally still have and regularly use my Golite Bitterroot down jacket, Jam2 50L pack, Feather 40 degree bag (now converted to a two-person quilt), and a few other things. I am very fond of who Golite was, what they made, and how they helped many of us to lighten up.
[image]
So, it seems like it would be a no brainer to partner with a company making items that are essentially updates of the original beloved items, now under a different brand name. However, there is a bit of a darkside in that Golite went bankrupt a few years ago and left debts of more than $3 million to outdoor suppliers, manufacturers, and real estate owners. Many ULers were unhappy with how Golite went out of business. It wasn't illegal, by any means...

Interest Check: Outdoors & Ultralight Jackets
[image]
Hey guys,
We want to hear what Outdoors & Ultralight jackets all of you are into. More specifically, what brands, types, and styles.
▶ What type of qualities do you look for in a jacket?
▶ Are there certain materials or designs that make most sense for you?
▶ What companies do you think make the best products?
We’re always looking at posts and polls for suggestions, and we take them into account when we’re looking for products to put on the site. It doesn’t mean we can secure relationships with every brand or company of course, but we do try, and it gives us a better sense of the interests of the community.
We thought the easiest way to round up and talk about what jackets everyone likes is to make a Talk Post so let us know what you think and what suggestions you might have in the discussion. Myself and the buying team will be here to take everything into consideration.
Thanks!

This most current tweak makes good sense for a selection of reasons
Atletico Madrid was the All-Star Game[turkey national team jersey] participant last period in Orlando, and also past opponents consist of Genuine Madrid, Bayern Munich as well as Juventus.
This is not the very first time the style has changed. As a matter of fact, for many years we'e seen groups broke up by meetings (East vs. West) and also by domestic and worldwide players (MLS UNITED STATES vs. MLS Globe).
Encountering the very best of the very best from Liga MX is simply the current instance of the enhancing relationship in between the Mexican organization and also MLS.
