A Little Heavy

By Ranked #888 - Sunglasses July 24, 2008

I have a pair of the polarized versions with the VR28 lenses. Got them the other day and the lenses are great. I have a medium sized face and they wrap well, and block out most light. They look stylish and cool, but the only downer is the weight. The description says "lightweight metal frames" but these things are anything but lightweight. I have a pair of Oakley Bottlecaps, and those are lightweight. I really feel the weight of the nosepads of the Spike after a few hours. I am afraid these are going back because they are just too much weight for my nose.
