    GLC1968 - I'm glad you wrote up that little tidbit about Tifosi.

    When I bought my first pair of sunglasses, I bought it off of Ebay - Rudy Project Graal Sx. The lenses were way too small for my face, I have absolutely no nose bridge so it kept slipping, so it was basically a bit of money wasted. The lense quality was great though, never suffered a scratch. So I didn't learn my lesson and bought the Smith Toaster - this time it was WAY too small for my head, I couldn't see through them because my head was too huge, but again, the frames were of great quality. I never considered Tifosi because they were so much cheaper than Smiths or Rudy Project (based on MSRP comparison with the Toaster or the Graal or the Rydon). And I got the stupid impression that more expensive = much better.

    I finally tried on the Tifosi Pave - finally! A good fitting pair of sunglasses. And much better priced, too! I don't know about durability yet, I've only had them for a week, but it echos what everyone else is saying - you need to go and try out the frames first or you'll end up really disappointed.

    Love my Rydon Rudy Project glasses. What I like most is I dont even know I have them on.
