QUOTE(jind86 @ Sep 14 2009, 11:34 PM) its the same thing, their just used interchangeably.. i cant give you an answer on what kind of shades you should get, it pretty much depends on what brand you like, what shape you prefer, what's ypir budget, and so on.. i thought shades are those classy type that you see in those movies. while sunglasses are more "guy" looking, like those Oakley. In that case thanks for your help, I shall visit a shop soon, those spectacles shops will do right? Do they have the best variety and price?

Been in a motorcycle accident with a RayBan on (the one with the spring loop), luckily the glass did not break or else I might be blinded today. Verdict? Highly recommended.  Nowadays I prefer the chromax driving series  Easier on the eye when it is raining. This post has been edited by dakwan5555: Sep 17 2009, 03:02 AM
