Hi, with the summer getting closer i want to buy a pair of sunglasses but i have no idea where to start, there’s too many models (and i basically only know the classic rayban in photo and the aviators) so i’d like some suggestions.

My face shape is oval, maybe rectangular but im not 100% sure.

I’m oriented in buying second hand so i’ll be saving money (ideally i would like to spend below 100€) and also i don’t want to be bothered if they get scratched or damaged (since im going to the beach often, playing like beach volley and shit).

Thank you for every suggestion, have a nice day :)

    This is a bit outside the box, but you might want to go to the hardware store and look at safety glasses. There are a variety of tints and they are wrap around, making them superior for actual eye protection. Glasses that are open on the side are harder on your eyes.

    Granted, you might not care for the look.

      Used those for years in Australia when driving around. Outdoor safety glasses were the best set of sunnies I ever had.

      This is what I use. The extra protection is great when I ride my bicycle or it’s really windy. I can’t stand sunglasses that are flat/open on sides and sports sunglasses are just expensive safety sunglasses IMO.
