Polaroid Sunglasses
Submitted by Ninety Mile on Mon, 2013-10-28 08:43
Hi All, Any ideas on an economic option for polaroids. After losing numerous pairs of expensive sets this year, including a new set oif Maui Jims over the side yesterday, im over it. Looking for a quality budget option so im not so upset when they inevitably go missing... Cheers Jarrod

UV wraps
hi mate, I picked up some UV wraps from Bunnings a few of weeks ago. They are safety glasses that are polorised for $10. Not sure how long they will last yet but they are still going strong after 3 weeks so we will see i suppose.

+1 for the polarized safety
+1 for the polarized safety glasses. Protector 'Whim Creek' are my favourites. Though they are a smoke coloured lens. For freshwater fishing and Marroning I prefer an amber coloured lens.

These FishGillz glasses look
These FishGillz glasses look alright and they float for $60 . I was going to get them prior to the mrs buying me some spotters , which are good but heavy and always slipping off my head so I bought a neoprene keeper that goes aroung my noggen and slides up the handles when on the boat .

Mangrove Jacks
Jacks go alright for about $50 each and have a few different colours similar to spotters. Just dont clean em with alcohol based solution (spray/wipes n shit).

I used to have cheapo
I used to have cheapo glasses, and found that they scratch easy and I didn't really look after them.
When my dog ate the last pair, I got good mako's for about $200, glass lenses. After 2 years they are still unscratched, due to glass and I reckon they are way better than all previous pairs combined.

I've got a pair of Blue Steel
I've got a pair of Blue Steel polaroids that punch above thier weight. $50 from BCF & still no scratches after almost 2yrs of being worn every time I step out of the house.
Just because I smile & nod does not mean I believe the crap coming out of your mouth.
