Try Native eyewear (west marine)
Killer shades, great warranty, and around 100 bucks

I have a pair of Bolle pirana? I believe, I lovem

their real light weight and sit on your face nice and easy, much lighter and more comfortable than mahi jims or Raybahn and less$ I havent had a real problem with scratching either. Also I have had Bolle in the past and been able to return broken frames, and they send you a new pair.

I have the rose polarized lens, which work great. I can spot fish very well with them and saw numerous 30+ lb fish swimming under my boat last year while other guys were wondering what the hell i was talking about. Some people prefer the grey lens but I like the warmer pink lense, i guess it all depends on what you like.

I have a pair of these...with the polarized lens'.

They are okay. The first pair I bought got scratched......I sent them back and they sent me a new pair. Not bad customer service I guess. The same thing happened to a pair of $130 oakley's I bought as well so it's all about how you take care of them. I beat the crap out of them myself. So far so good and they have lasted me the summer with no scratches. Decent sunglasses without the huge cost.

hmmm. not sure if that is good or not.

I will toss in a vote for natives. I have never worn a more comfortable frame and there is a lifetime warranty for any reason unless they are lost. You smash em, just send in the pieces.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

Yup
Great frames and the amber lenses rock; 8-10hrs on the water 3-6 days a week all summer long, never get the headaches or tired eyes I used to with my Oakleys, Dragons, or other brands with 'good' lenses

Action Optics RULE

Try Action Optics by Smith. I've had a pair with glass lenses for 9!! years without breaking them, except when they sat in the car one sub-zero night and the frame broke when I sprung the ear pieces to go over my wool hat. Sent them back and Smith replaced them no questions asked. Dropped them on the pavement and rocks many times with hardly a scratch on the lenses. The photochromic copper lenses lighten and darken (slightly) with the light conditions and the copper color adds a lot of definition in low light conditions . They tend to be over $100, but you might find them on closeout somewhere, so search on ebay or just google search. You won't be disappointed! As for Oakleys, mine scratched when I looked at 'em cross eyed. I'll never buy another pair of Oakleys!
