I have a $100 REI Gift Card. Should I get Darn Tough socks or Maui Jim sunglasses?
if your sunglasses break, don't spend them on maui jims get knockarounds, blenders, etc.

What’s the best sunglass brand to bifl? I’m not even sure if there’s any with a very durable design
We're big fans of Knockaround, they are built to last, polarized, and have great customer service.

What’s the best sunglass brand to bifl? I’m not even sure if there’s any with a very durable design
Knock arounds. I’ve had the same pair for nearly 5 years now going strong. The great part though is they’re only like $25 so when they do eventually die I’ll just buy another pair for another 5+ years. They’re surprisingly good quality too. Don’t look or feel “cheap” imo.

What’s a purchase that’s not fun, not flashy but now you swear by it?
I've had wmp and blenders. Gonna work around to goodr and knock around. The wmp are definitely good for the price. Blenders are a lot more stylish but slightly over priced if you don't get the 50% off. I have some Oakley and electric that just feel better but that price is hard to swallow

Is there anything you're convinced is "the cheaper the better"?
Agreed. I buy from a brand called Knockaround, about $35 a pop. Great quality for the price.

Best street style sunglasses that can last years
Knockaround! Fair pricing, good quality. Don’t care if I beat them up. Highly recommend them.

Best street style sunglasses that can last years
You might want to check out **Knockaround Premiums** or **Goodr** sunglasses. Both are well-known for being durable and affordable, and they hold up better than most fashion brands. Knockaround has a more classic street style look, while Goodr is slightly sportier and designed to handle rough use. If you want something that feels more timeless, **Ray-Ban Wayfarer** or **Persol PO0649** are solid long-term picks — pricier, but proven to last.

sunglasses recommendations?
I used to lose Oakleys and Maui Jim's all the time (which are both fantastic sunglasses and I love anything and everything from the Oakley brand) and then random cheap sunglasses and I think REI Knockaround polarized ones are a very happy meet in the middle ones!! Durable, decent quality, polarized, diff styles and like 30-40 bucks a pair

Any suggestions for high-quality polarized sunglasses that don’t have a huge markup just because of the brand?
I have pairs from Goodr, Knockaround and Maui Jim (bought through a friend's employee discount -- 75% off). The Maui Jims are definitely the clearest, but they're not so much better than the others to justify their retail price. And because they are so expensive, I feel like I need to baby them, which is why I have the other pairs.
