Maui Jim Sport sunglasses with red lenses. The last sunglasses you'll ever buy.

For 9 years I worked selling eyeglasses and sunglasses at an optical shop.
From my experience there I can tell you that you NEEEEED to buy a pair of polarized sunglasses, preferably with a backside anti-reflective coating.

Good brands I've found are Maui Jim, Ray Ban, Revo, and Oakley.

Maui Jim makes the most AMAZING sunglasses ever. I put a pair on 9 years ago and have not worn another brand since. Once you see the world through a pair of Mauis there's no going back. They are expensive, but they are worth every cent you will spend on them. I've collected 3 over the last 9 years and I would protect them with my life!! (lol, not really, but close)

Ray Bans and Revos are nice as well, I'm not a big fan of Oakley.

Whatever you buy, make sure they are polarized!!
(and wearing a hat helps with glare from above that can get in behind the glasses)

(sorry for the novel, I feel very stongly about my sunglasses )

if you;re an asian dude, think about the oakley's that are designed for asians. they ahve a different nose bridge and are a little wider. kinda nice.

i agree with the polarized idea. i wear oakley...nano wires i think....polarized. worth it.

Also check out Serengeti with the Drivers Lenses (the name Drivers is not a coincidence here ). They are fabulous real optical glass or a new PhD NXT poly lens with polarization that's the best on the market right now.
I have Autobahn frames with real glass Drivers lenses and a custom Rx, I can't say enough good things about the quality of these sunglasses.

After I bought my NFR s2k I went and bought some two toned Black/Red D&G's to make myself look extra douchy when the tops down. But usually just rock the Ray Ban aviators, sometimes the von zips.
