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 :)

    And don’t spend money on fancy prescription sunglasses - that gives you an extra pair of expensive glasses to lose. You can get over-glasses sunglasses for like $20 each. They fit over your regular glasses; provide more sunglare protection from the sides, overhead and even reflected upward; you’ll still be wearing your regular glasses so you won’t lose them; and they’re cheap enough that you don’t need to worry about scratching or losing them.

      Yep, if you wear prescription glasses, and are travelling to South East Asia, get a few pairs of ‘Ideal’ brand slip-over sunglasses. Cheap and cheerful.
