That's it, I've had enough. I'm buying some. Which?

[ToughButterCup]

I know I am going to get the blame for this. And it is almost certainly going to make it rain for a month.

 

I've had enough of squinting and the forecast is good for the rest of the week; and I'm on the roof . All that highly reflective foil.....    So I'm buying some sunglasses.

 

I don't need to look good (or cool even), but I don't need a namby pamby pair of beach shades. I don't need a hard-man aviator look either (although deep down I am a hard aviator Tom Cruise type - but taller, much taller , .... and more handsome)

 

Advice?

You too can look like Lance Armstrong or Marco Pantani.

Combine them with a decent pair of safety specs as you know it’s the right thing to do...

Son, your ego is writing checks your body can't cash!"

@PeterW, I am not cool, I am not a dude...

But they are wrap around and that helps with glare...

Listen pal, wimmin are queueing  up in the lane to admire  my rippling torso , just like that bit-part bloke in Poldark.

That'd be me, then.  I was a bit-part bloke in Poldark - a horse handler to be precise.  Mind you, that was the original series, so time may have taken it's toll.

 

I did enjoy holding Angharad Rees horse, though...

I prefer the blue but i agree you may as well make them safety rated.

Aw, the vest means I can’t compare the six pack! 

 

[newhome]

Deffo go for the safety glasses. You know it makes sense! Cheap as chips too.

If reflections are an issue, go for polarised. I prefer polarised for driving, for example, as a lot of the brightness is reflections from cars.

Not to state the obvious, but what happened to the shades in your avatar?

 

They are quite cool in an NCIS sort of way.

We use them bolle type in work and they are very good. Even the prescription type for blind people like me are comfortable to wear all day.

Just remembered these.

Great when body parts start flying off you.

Good for plastering too, @Onoff has some
