Bloc Sunglasses Any Good?

[Hallsy]

After my what sunglasses thread ive had a look around and although Oakleys seem to top the list i just wondered if anyone had the bloc glasses. Im looking at the modenas but just wanted some opinions as they seem to get a good write up, plus i can get 40% off.

Did you look at my comment in your thread!!! they are the ones i suggested, very good, strong, decent filtering, brightens up a dark day while being great in direct sunlight. A decent lower cost alternative to oakley.

Check your local debenhams too, they sell them in there!

yeh seem fine, i have issues with glasses that are either too heavy or squeeze above your ears too tight, either of them and i cant wear them for more than 5 mins as i get a head ache from them. The Blocs i have a great on both counts and can wear all day long.

I've got a couple of pairs of Sundog sunglasses, I really like them, very little distortion. You'll find them on eBay and Amazon.

Bloc sunglasses are the best budget glasses you can get imo. I use bloc glasses when skiing so i dont risk trashing my oakley's. They are great for the money and can take some serious stick too

Tried some when I was in the market.

Great quality but Oakley for me.

I now have 2 pairs and won't use anything else.

I bought some Blocs on Rooters recommendation a while back. Great sunnies and great price. Got mine on Amazon.

Missed the other thread but my sundogs are excellent for a budget price.

For the people that like very light weight glasses but snug and extremely though then take a look at 'gatorz' they're used mainly for skydiving but i wear mine all the time. You really don't know you're wearing them

After seeing some tests done on how different brands of sunglasses work with the quality of the lenses etc I will only ever buy/wear Oakleys

I've got 15 pairs of Oakleys, so you can guess where my vote is going.

Bloc are ok. I have had these in the past, but.....

I prefer my Prada linea Rossa sunglasses which are both stylish and are for active lifestyle. They feature rubberised inside arm coating so they do not slip off from my head and also soft rubber nose pads. Very comfortable. Found a photo of my model on google images.

Apologies to Odvan, rather messes up his post




Brilliant, thanks for this - just bought 7 pairs...

I've got lots of pairs of Oakleys and they are much better than Bloc sunglasses I've also previously bought.

A good halfway house cost-wise are Bolle. I've got a few pairs of Bolle glasses and they are good quality without being as expensive as Oakleys. I believe Westwood wears Bolle.

Swear by Oakley, wear them for cycling, golf, shooting. Fantastic sporting glasses, prefer my ray bags for normal wearing, and use bolle safety glasses at work which are canny
