Im a cheap sunglasses person, so at $95 at the time of this review, I do think they are a bit overpriced. I didn't find the lense quality to be significantly better than the cheap ones. The look good and fit well for sports.I have a couple of pairs of Parallel sunglasses, and while the styling isn't my cup of tea (I'm more of a classic Wayfarers guy) they're excellent for any kind of sporty outdoor activities.The lenses offer great a clarity boost, sharpening your vision noticeably thanks to the colour of the lenses, and the wide temples are great at blocking out the sun from the side, reducing glare. I ordered the blue option, and I think they look a little superhero-ey, if that makes any sense :)All in all I'm impressed. I suspect these things will live in their case most of the time as I don't love the look, but whenever I'm in the countryside I'll take these along.These wrap around the head nicely without pinching.Stays on while active.They don’t come in too close to the eyes on the sides where they wrap.Good peripheral vision.They block the sun very well, but you can still see well and drive in them.They come with a few options for cases (soft/hard) and a cleaning cloth.These were great until I lost mine a month ago :( But until that point, they were excellent, providing great comfort for day and sunlight viewing while feeling gently and comfortable on the temples and head. Very well designed, with a nice case and cloth as well.Love these! So cute and we’ll made! Love the color of the lenses. Perfect for sunny days!I'm really impressed with these Parallel Muri sunglasses. For the price, they're an excellent deal. The frames are lightweight but sturdy, and they're very comfortable. The clarity is superb. I've worn Kaenon sunglasses for some years because of their excellent polarized clarity, and these hold their own at a significantly lower price point. The polarization really cuts through glare. I love the large size of the frames and tall footprint of the lenses, as they provide great coverage and work well on my large-ish head/face. They also come with a really nice case. Great shades all around.Well, I like them. They will even be my go-to sunglasses from now on. However, if I had to pay for them I wouldn't even know they exist, just as the rest of our destroyedmiddle-class won't... I'll probably wind up giving them to someone from that destroyed middle-class in the end, but for now, I sure will enjoy them! They block out more glare than any other sunglasses I've had for a long time now. They are also VERY lightweight and comfortable. And they come with a nice hard case, a cloth drawstring case. The only downside is that they just come with the usual junk microfiber cloth. The one pair of expensive sunglasses that I DID once have, came with a microfiber cloth like no other, to this day! And it's been nearly twenty years now. I don't have those sunglasses anymore, but I still have and use that microfiber cloth all of the time. Lol, it's not really that big of a deal though. I would just like to see someone out there include a better microfiber cloth.The vivid clarity these glasses offer if outstanding. I would compare them to other brands that cost a lot more. Highly recommend
