Which driving/sunglasses do you wear?
With summer supposedly just around the corner and needing to replace a pair of knackered Ray-Bans, I was just wondering what other driving glasses/sunglasses were popular, primarily for wearing when driving.
Have had Ray Ban, Serengetti, and Oakley- the Serengetti's were the best for driving, but the Ray Ban's better for everyday wear....any opinions?

I've been using these for the last 4 years and been very happy, although about time I got a new pair now!
Oakley Square Wire in Platinum Gold Iridium!
Thing with sunglasses is that everyones face is different and what suits one person looks aufull on the next. Best bet is try everything and go for the one that suits you most and you feel more comfortable wearing. For driving I would go for a lighter lens so you can still use your glasses in lower light levels.

Oakley E-Wires . Blue Iridiums if the light isn't so hot, and a 7yr old pair of gold's if it's bright.
I also have some Bolle's if I'm doing long distances and it's very bright, they wraparound more than the oakleys...

I had some Subaru ones - worst pair I've ever had. Mind you I got them discounted so I couldn't really complain too much.
I've had Oakley's, Police etc.... One set I was wearing whilst getting in the car. Bent down and they fell on the floor (virtually had my head between my legs - morning after night before
) and scratched 
Two sets my eldest daughter thought they were memoflex
. Needless to say, they weren't!! 
(she was 2 at the time!!!)
I've sat on 2 pairs and broke em....
I now were a £25 pair of NEXT sunglasses. WHEN they get broken, it's alot cheaper on the wallet!! Still, they're polarised and keep out the sun pretty well

I think same as Markus. I need polarised as my eyes were so sensitive, and they fitted my face the best.
Pointless in UK but I felt they were justified, living in Portugal
