For sunglasses that retail for a few hundred $, they neither felt nor looked any more expensive than a $10 pair.  They are very light weight plastic. The lenses aren't gradient as I expected and also looked a bit cheap.  Another con - I like large glasses, but these were far too big and looked bug-like.  Perhaps this is because you can't see through the lenses.  The brown may have been a better look since you can see through them so they may not give the bug appearance. I returned these and opted for Jimmy Choo sunglasses instead.
