Best pair of sunglasses I’ve
"Best pair of sunglasses I’ve ever owned!"
I’m impressed
"For years I’ve been buying prescription Oakley sunglasses through Oakley’s Standard Issue military program. My daughter in law was raving about her Shady Rays and when I saw that they too, had an awesome military program I decided to try them for myself. I’m very impressed with the quality and materials SR uses in their glasses. To be honest, they remind me of Oakley 20-years ago before they started skimping on materials. Where Oakley still beats Shady Rays is in lens technology. I wear progressive lenses and I feel like the distance and mid vision is on par with Oakley but the close-up portion of the lens looks like I’m looking through an older version of my prescription. They have been great for nearly everything but reading is where they’re lacking, it’s just not as crisp as factory direct Oakley lenses. I hope Shady Rays continues to make investments in their technology to take that next step."
