value for money

The glasses weren't as big as they looked in the brochure.
If they were larger then they woud be great sunglasses, but as they are they are too small.

I was delighted to find sufficiently deep frames and am pleased with the strength of the frames. I have adjusted the arms carefully, and they are now perfectly comfortable. The lenses certainly compare favourably with high street lenses I have experienced and the price is certainly favourable! I have told a number of friends.
-
I would appreciate a greater choice of deeper frames. Last year, even Scott wasn't available, so this year's catalogue was a great improvement. Perhaps a narrower bridge would suit ladies more. Really bad points .... mmm, can't think of any yet.

Well made and will stand up to use when travelling
I like the colour of the frames and toning lenses
Larger lens suits sun glasses as they protect a wider area
Spectacle case is robust enough to cope with being in a pocket or bag

No choice of sizes available.
This considerably restricts the individual to the glasses with frames that fit you.
Bad luck if they are too big (as the 'Scott' were for me) or too small etc.

Very good value for money compared with anything on the high street - even the supermarkets. This means I can have a pair in almost every room saving me the bother of carrying them around or having to fetch them when I need them. Very convenient to buy compared with having to make a special journey to the shops.

I look down a lot to work on a desk and when reading for pleasure. I'm sick to death of (any and all) glasses sliding down my face. I'd really like a 'gripper' surface on the arms - optional perhaps - to keep them in place,
