Retro Rewind Classic Polarized Sunglasses

Comment

Yeah this is a 5 star review. Lets kick it off by acknowledging these are $10 sunglasses, or at least thats what this reviewer paid for them. Lets also note these are totally bro-y. So if youre a frat guy headed to Miami Beach for Spring Break, this will fit the look and the budget, particularly since theres a reasonably high probability of losing them. That said, these things are awesome. First the pros: 1. They are bro-y (yeah it can be a positive too) 2. They are really sturdy for the price. I was expecting them to be light plastic things that will shatter the first time you drop them. Or that youd get that thing where one sides screw is loose so it just flops around while the other stays more in place. NOPE. They are strong, thick frames, and the way they fold up itll be years before the screws start to fade on you. 3. The colors are wide ranging and true to the picture 4. POLARIZED. Are they the clearest polarized glasses out there? How the heck should I know, but they seem to work great. Cons: 1. There arent any, so dont be a dum-dum and pick up a pair. For 10 bucks you wont be disappointed.

Ive now purchased two pairs of these because I like them so much. Pros: -Theyre sturdier than others Ive bought at similar price points -The texture of the frames is like a matte finish vs. normal glossy plastic which is great because they dont look as cheap and dont get greasy when sunscreen gets too close -They dont squeeze my head! Loose enough to be comfortable but tight enough to stay put -Theyre dark enough to allow me not to squint in sunlight but light enough that it doesnt feel like evening when you wear them -They come with a bag to keep them protected. And theyre very affordable so even if they were scratched they could easily be replaced. I bought a second pair to keep in my car Cons: -The polarization is pretty weak. Normally with polarized glasses I can see into water when out on a boat on a sunny day, but with these you cant quite UPDATE: I wore my second pair with sunscreen on in the pool and they gave me a pretty hilarious unibrow. They rubbed black on any part of my skin the glasses touched. I dont know if it was because of the sunscreen, the salt water pool chemicals, the hot weather or some combination. Just be aware, if people are giving you funny looks after you take them off, it could be that youve got sunglass residue on your face. My family got a good laugh.

So I got the RED version of these glasses. I was reading the reviews of others on here saying paint was peeling off, etc. Mine definitely doesnt have paint in it, the pigment is embedded in the plastic, at least for the red ones, and the ones I ordered. I guess they could have potentially switched suppliers or something, but anyway I bought these way back in 2017 and I literally just sat on them today in my car and both arms popped off and theres no way I can fix them. Anyway, I came on here to buy a new pair of the red sunglasses, and I will! But I was reading through the reviews and shocked to see so many people complaining. I want to vouch for these glasses. Theyve lasted me 2 years they are only $10, and the only reason they broke is because I sat on them and Im 61" and a big guy, so them breaking is a given. Anyway, if you want these glasses, get the red ones! Stylish and attractive and durable.

These are decent for cheap sunglasses. I ended up getting a pair of Neff Chip sunglasses which are similar but they are a little more expensive. But I found they are better built and I like the style better than these. I wore these Retro rewinds for a few months and they broke, and I bought another pair and those are still holding up but they just feel a little janky, especially when I compare them to the Neff Chip. But for a cheap pair of sunglasses, these do the job. I didnt care for the polarization. It makes looking through tinted windows really weird and wavy. The polarization is very cheap, but you get what you pay for so I cant really complain. If you only wanna spend a little money and you break sunglasses easily then these are for you. But if you want to find some middle ground with a similar style then I recommend the Neff Chip.
