I have been eyeing these glasses for over a year now and finally decided to take the plunge.  I love everything about these glasses, from the cut-out lenses to the criss-cross frame to the frame's pretty shade of grey.  The glasses protect my eyes from the sun's glare and harmful UV rays.  The arms of the glasses are lightweight and do not weigh down on my  head or cause pain behind my ears.  My only complaint is that the glasses do not come with a soft case.  Altho the velvet box is nice, I'd prefer to have a smaller case (like the small drawstring bags) to use when I'm carrying a smaller bag - the case that the glasses come in is too large for most of my handbags.
