Great quality and a really nice lens. Very light weight. I use then when flying and the polarization and neutral grey really helps to pick out other airplanes.

It is 8-base and press against my cheek, I have to wash it with detergent often. After cleaning, I only shake the water away by folding it up and holding on to the bridge with the temples close to my palm. This way I can avoid rubbing the lenses and keep them in good quality.

Have owned many Serengeti products, but these are likely the best so far. Can't say enough about the quality of the frame, optics, and overall design. However, the lenses are very easy to scratch, and even the slightest impact with a rough surface may be damaging. Very good price at Optics Planet - much less expensive than elsewhere.

Their ANSI rating prevented a nice size stone slung from the lawnmower from causing what a I am almost certainly would have been eye loss (near dead center impact). Nicked my lens but I CANNOT complain. Replacement cost about $65.00. Their worth every penny for looks, styling and just wearing on sunny day while doing lawn work. ; ) Own two different styles. P.S. Great protection for duty and the range also!

I have been buying and wearing this model for 6 years. The lenses do develop stress cracks around the nose after a short time, since the hardware connects directly to the lenses because there is no frame. Still, I love these glasses. The lenses will make your eyes smile...I guarantee. They sharpen my vision, and are so worth the extra money over cheap glasses which dull my vision. You can feel your face and eyes relax when you put them on. Frame fits well and doesn't squeeze your head. I recommend these glasses, despite the durability issue...they continue to wear well even with the cracks. And Serengetti will replace if you want...save your receipt.

These glasses were fantastic when I bought the first pair around two years ago. It isn't an exaggeration to say that I have never worn a more comfortable pair. They are so light you literally forget that they are there. Unfortunately the Nuvola line doesn't seem to hold up. The first pair developed stress cracks at the bridge piece after around 10 months of use. I noticed because they started "plucking" my eyebrows. Serengeti provided a free replacement under warranty (with no hassle at all) that lasted another 10 or so months before the lens coatings started to flake off. I usually get four years out of a good pair of sunglasses...including a Serengeti Prato before the Nuvola...so I have to conclude that it's the glasses and not me. I'll be buying another pair from Serengeti, but they will have glass lenses and full frames.

I have worn serengeti sunglasses in the past. They always meet and/or exceed my expectations. Great looking, light and very effective in keeping out the bright sun but letting in the light. What more could you ask for in a pair of sunglasses. Also, Opticsplanet had the best price anywhere and I should know cause I do my homework. Thanks Opticsplanet for great service and great products.
