Never used myself but it's hard to find a lot of negative comments about Maui Jim's so they must be doing something right

Same here, but the black version and with transition lenses. I've an eye exam soon, but I think it will mean a new prescription so the Havana (tortoise) this time with green coloured transitions.

I'm a speccy git and generally don't wear shades as I still need to see (and I don't generally feel I can warrant a pair of prescription ones yet). So, I get by with my reactive lenses in my specs:

I get on with mine ok, the only downside is the time they take to return to normal. If your out shopping it's like every shop is Hollister !

Indeed! Then there is the feeling of pending doom when outside on an overcast day, the sky always seems darker than it is

Along with my Cobra Classic today I also received a pair of Persol 2803. Green polarized lenses in Havana frames.

I found out on Friday we've got a deal to get 25% off sunglasses at the moment. So as I've recently lost my Maui Jim's I thought it would be silly not to replace them, so whilst I was at the shop I tried on some other brands/models and came away with some more MJ's and a pair of Oakley Latch's, but are nice polarized lenses which I would never be without.

Picked up a pair of Persol 714s.
Havana frames w/ brown gradient lenses
The 714s folds...
...and becomes super compact easy to slip into your shirt/jacket pocket
The model was made famous by Steve McQueen and there's even a SM special edition out there;
