    Safety sun glasses. When I was on the highway, I pulled a deck. Had a few pair of nice sunglasses and I'd lose them or break them. Safety shades are welcomed everywhere and stay tighter on your face.

    Now I haul gravel so I'm in and out of pits every day and safety is big there too.

    As far the op goes. I've been wearing Maui Jim sport glasses for years and loved them, the new ones I just recently bought have glass lenses and the clarity is mindblowing compared to the plastic lenses on the sport mauis

    When I hauled. petreoluem we had to have eye wear on at all times when loading your trailer,the gave me a pair of sunglasses with. A small lmagnifying lenses I got them a few yrs ago and. to this day I wear them.They actually look good on me,theyre comfortable and block the brightest Sun.These type of sunglasses are made for jobs that require eyewear but now I wear them for everyday use.

    The cheaper they are the less likely you are to lose/break them. I have a $4 pair from Walmart that will probably outlive me. If I bought a $100 pair I wouldn't have them next week.
