Well since me going to Fan Faire means my sensitive Seattle eyes will be braving the piercing sun of Las Vegas in August, I think I'd better get some sunglasses.

They can't just be any old sunglasses, though. I need some super-awesome Matrixy-type shades. Have an image to maintain, after all (and the goggles aren't quite cutting it :p).

Soooo anyone got some links to where I might find any such item for sale on the intarwebs?

Hmm... Interesting...but not awesome enough. =p

Don't need exact Matrix replicas or anything, just sunglasses that you wouldn't be ashamed to be seen in if you met Neo.

Since you don't like long links...

This site has Agent sunglasses but no Twin sunglasses...

This site has Twin sunglasses but is out of stock of Agent sunglasses...Oh, this one also has Seraph shades

Both sites have multiple Neo versions.

And "like long links" is an alliteration. SMILEY

Hmmmrrr... How about just sites that sell actual quality non-gimmick shades for wanna-be hipsters with money to burn?

Then This would be the site you're looking for.

Or perhaps This one. 

P.S. Big sunglasses are in.  SMILEY

P.P.S.  Don't give in and get the Livestrong ones.  How yesterday is that?

Ooh hm. Yeah jeesh what's with the wanna-be retro 50's thick black nerd frames? Oy!

By the way, if you're daring enough, the Sunglass Hut can be found at your local shopping mall.  SMILEY

Edit:  Well it seems Ray-Ban isn't following that trend... or at least not to the extent that others have.  They've got some nice ones without the gigantor frames.

Seems expensive for a pair of shades.

thats what I was thinking. Not bad looking but also gonna take a chunck outa your walet.

But what I have learned is that usally more expensive glasses also offer the best eye protection. Your five dollar glasses you pick up at a gas station can actully be more harmful then going without sunglasses.

I'm just paranoid about getting cheap shades that make me go cross-eyed if I wear 'em too long. XP
#36300278059 07/10/2007 13:44 Re:Rarey needs shades for Vegas!
How about finding some shades like the in-game N'Wing shades, they look great....

/sarcasm cancel..... (hint! SMILEY)

Get some agent shades with ear-piece (for an ipod or something...)

So a pair of shades from the movie "The Jerk" would be out then? SMILEY
