Are these the coolest shades ever? Maybe not, but they are the original. A true classic I'd recommend for anyone.  the glass lenses are a little heavy but there are polycarbonate options for people who would prefer those. i wanted the glass, and the optical quality is pretty good.  For style, quality, durability, these shades are an exceptional value.  This classic look is frequently overlooked by today's sunglass users. Too bad those philistines. Match these with a nice Hamilton watch and you're good to go.
