Oakley Fives Sunglasses

February 24th, 2009 · 2 Comments ·

Finally I thought I found a pair of sunglasses which I like but after one day of wearing it, I found it was not suitable for me. When shopping at Camarillo Outlet Mall two weekends ago, I saw this pair of very nice Oakley Fives sunglasses. I have several other sunglasses but they are old and I needed a new pair for my coming up travel/cruise to Alaska.

I paid $70 plus sales tax for this Warm Grey Oakley Fives Sunglasses at Sunglasses Hut. This particular style was not on sale. While I was testing it out at the store, it was fine. But when I wore it during the return trip from the outlet mall back to our home (less than an hour), I found it uncomfortable. The frame was basically resting on my cheek instead of the bridge of my nose. I knew that when I was trying it at the store, but it wasn’t uncomfortable to me until I wore it for 45 minutes long. Unfortunately, my nose is quite flat. Fortunately for me, the sunglasses came with a 30 days return policy. All I need to do is to find another Sunglasses Hut store around my area to return it.

I thought I would have one item less on my things-to-get-for-the-trip list but I guess not.  Even with this pair of sunglasses out of the list, there are still many items I am looking to get at the right style and price.  I still need to hunt for a new pair of outdoor clothing (may be a wind breaker as I heard the weather in Alaska can be cold in the month of May), one or two new blouses, a new swimsuit (must try to utilize the swimming pools on the cruise), a jacket for my son, a new pair of walking shoes for my son, two new light suitcases with spinners and now, another pair of sunglasses.

    I always find it a long process to checking off everything on the list before you go on a long trip. I always find it really difficult to purchase sunglasses as I’m very picky

    getting the right sunglasses or just regular glasses can be such a challenge. i hope you’re able to exchange your pair for something that fits well!
