I love these glasses! I've had them for a year and haven't had any problems at all. I was even able to wear them during all of my softball games this summer. I love that they stayed on the whole time!

The selection and quality of the sports sunglasses are excellent! And, there's no other site that can beat the price. The only drawback is the amount of time it takes for your order to be fulfilled and shipped. It's totally worth the wait, though.

Ever since finding https://www.glassespeople.com, I always purchase my eyeglasses and sunglasses through this website. We live in a rural area, without a lot of options for optical needs. GlassesPeople makes it very easy to submit my specifications, select the eyewear/sunglasses that work best for me, and do so in a fast efficient manner.
