just ordered my Flak Jacket's from Oakley and started thinkin, i dont think i've seen a thread for it on here, so Post your EDC shades here :cool:
 
I bought a set of custom shop fuel cells here on the form for a song like a year ago, I never thought to photo them, I will update this post when I do.
 
I have a few pairs

2 sets of Juliets, a set of fast jackets, and a pair of 5squareds
I wear the 5squareds the most, but prefer the way the fast jackets grab onto my head (i managed to scratch the lens badly, and it irritates the hell out of me)
 
While not fancy, I currently run 4 pairs of prescription glasses in Titanium frames.
I have Rose, Yellow, polarized Brown, and Transitions Grey.

The correct color makes a lot of difference in clarity.
 
My every day shades are currently a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarer with the honey and black frames.
Pretty much the perfect pair of EDC shades for me
 
For years, I've used several varieties of clip-ons. Being a cop, I don't care to deal with two pairs of specs all the time; I need prescription lenses anyway... Have never used contacts.
So.. since we frequently go from bright sunshine into a dark building... The "auto change" things don't work fast enough to suit me... Might be dangerous.
So the cheap, spring-loaded clip-ons are perfect. Pop 'em off, stick 'em in a pocket... If they get lost or dinged or bent it's no great loss.
I'd love to have a pair of snazzy "cycling" shades for riding, but the prescription-insert jobs are way expensive.

you could always get a pair of Oakleys, usstandardissue.com does them in prescription, and has awesome discounts for military and LEO's
 
3 pairs of Oakley Juliets for most uses (6-7 sets of lenses) and a few different pairs of half jackets for sailing, skiing and surfing. Used to have them as a part sponsor when I was playing basketball.. :D
