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 :)

    I’ve been looking at Neven, but have no idea if they’re as big as they seem or if they’re any more durable than Knockaround.

    I like Knockaround’s styles, specifically the Fast Lanes for being somewhere between a classic Rayban and a square aviator, but I keep ending up with scratched lenses. They do have a one-time warranty, but I’m not sure the extent of replacement due to wording. Only tried it once directly through customer service before I realized there’s an actual policy. I took much better care and even ordered more (different colors), but they still wear out. Daily wear, rotate through ~6 pairs. Get about 2 years out of them. I guess that’s fine, but my old sunglasses weren’t so consumable. Maybe I just not familiar with the longevity of mirrored coatings. They’re ~$35usd each and sales are frequent. The custom shop is neat.
