Native Eyewear Dash XP Sunglasses - Polarized

These are the best shades I've owned. Hands down. Except for the coating on the outside of the lens...polarization coating? I made the mistake of cleaning it with a tissue. and the coating wiped right off, so now it needs to be replaced for 40 bucks. Otherwise, they are great for mountainbiking because they don't fog up and glare is drastically reduced. Enjoy!! and remember- clean them with the supplied cloth only!!!!

This is my third pair of natives. My first broke after 2 years and I am in the process of getting them warrantied. So far so good. The rubber ear pieces on my first pair of XP's fell off after a while and one of the hinges broke. I never had problems with lens scratching. I have no complaints just now for the Dash XP's. All glasses will fall apart if you are as hard on them as I am. I figure if I can get a year out of them, I got my money's worth. I think they could be a little more tougher for the money.

I love these glasses! I have three pairs of the Charcoal XP. They protect your eyes while still keeping your viewing area light. They cut the glare, not the colors. Colors are more vibrant. You can see the bottom of a river and the fish swimming in it. You can still hike with them, because you can see detail (unlike other glass that make everything too dark). Plus, they have air holes in the top so heat escapes and the glasses don't steam up. The XP fits my face well. I have a square face and they wrap around it well. The nose pieces are very comfortable. They have taken a lot of abuse and I still have no scratches.

Both the frames and lenses are of inferior quality. The lenses are very flimsy and the lenses develop a blotchy uneven film on the exterior of the lens. Although it does not effect your vision - it is noticeable. Not what you would expect from a $100 plus pair of glasses.

I have a pair of Native glasses (the Dash XP) that I thought were going to be great, but when the comfy nose-piece that holds them on your face fell off Native left me hangin'. I tried repeatedly to get customer support from Native, but they failed miserably. Learn from my mistake -- buy Smith,... I strayed from them for a short time, but trust me when I say that they stand behind their products (not a paid advertisement--I promise).

I've worn and sold Natives for 5 years. I will never wear another pair of glasses except Natives. The Dash XP's happen to fit my face the best so I chose them. These have been through everything, including eating it hard off the mountain bike, backcountry skiing, long leader falls, you name it! Mine have never had so much as a scratch through all that (many falls equals many scratches) and even with all that abuse, Native will still warranty them!

These glasses are not worth the money. They dont keep the sun out and break extremly easily. DO NOT BUY

These glasses are the best that I purchased so far, definitely drop the bills for these glasses, you will not be sorry!!
