These sunglasses are exactly as advertised.  They are dark, and fit very well (I wear an XXL hat, and these are wide enough to fit my face).  My only complaint is that I have high cheekbones, and when I smile they hit the leather side shades, pushing the glasses up off my nose.  I don't see how to remove the side shades.  I'll just have to be very serious when wearing these shades.
