Last couple of pairs of sunnies have been good ones on sale (Nike Haul's were sat on by mrs_oab but prior to that they were superb; my Endura Triggers are now scratched to bits and distracting, but again worth it for OK view from em).
Having tried some cheap as chips UVEX ones, I disliked how distorted they made things... 🙁
I have a bigger face, and do not want to look like a tour wannabe - so dark colour frames, no reflective lenses - but need to be good vision and work...
Looking at Cebe, Bolle and Salomon all in the sale(s), upto £40.
Any experiences with them?

My OH used to wear Bolle sunglasses and loved them.

I've always found Bloc hard to beat for mid-range sunglasses.

Tifosi? If you stretch the budget a bit, you could even get photochromatic.

I have some Bolle off-bike ones, and they're not bad at all really. Good style, fairly robust, but the arms have a tendency to scratch the lenses when folded up (on the specific style I bought).

I buy Bloc sunglasses for this reason. I lost my last pair on a hill in Spain, but no drama, just buy another pair.

Cheap, reliable, safe and don't make you look like a tour wannabe.

Lazer make some really nice glasses, they'd usually be out of your price range but they're on sport pursuit on the cheap ATM.

Bought a pair of Bloc sunglasses for my holiday - really comfortable and very lightweight.
