Gift Guide day 3 Custom Sunglasses

Today brings us to something custom. I thought I should get this out of the way since you need time for custom items. This may not be the most ideal Christmas gift unless you really know what the recipient likes but I thought it was cool.

First a little back story. You don’t see a new Porsche in my driveway right now because I spent all my Porsche money on sunglasses over the years. I was happy with my last pair but apparently they weren’t happy with me. They left me one day, never to be seen from again.

Anyway I went to replace them at my local sunglass shack/hut/emporium and I couldn’t find exactly what I wanted. Even though I liked the pair I had I wanted to get them without the polarized lenses. Sure polarized glass is the way to go for water sports and such but not so hot when trying to read lcd displays including those on the back of my camera. Not a problem said the clerk, we can order then for you. Great! I thought to myself. We flipped through the virtual pages of the on-line catalog in the store and found the right make and model. Slight problem though. The frame colors weren’t the same. The Polarized models had 3 color choices and the non=polarized models had 3-4 other choices. I decided I would wait and search the net when I got home to find a better option.

DAY 3 Custom sunglasses from Oakley

1. First choose from over 30 frame styles. – I went with the Fives

2. Choose your Frame color – Brown Tortoise for me.

3. Choose your Lens Color – Tungsten Iridium it is, non-polarized

4. Choose your logo color – Gun Metal

5. Get a custom engraved lens – I had my email address engraved. Maybe the next time I lose them someone will see this and email me so I can retrieve them or at least send me pictures of them wearing them as they travel the world. If you are annoyed by things on the glass don’t get the engraving. It looks just like it does on screen and you can see it while wearing the glasses.

6. Pay for your glasses and wait for shipping. Only took at few days and still cost less the off the shelf polarized model.

My Amazon Wish List

People (in my family) say I am hard to buy for around Christmas time. I guess it is true. Unless you buy me clothes I have probably already seen and researched any other item I might want. This year I am making it easy for anyone that for whatever reason wants to buy me something for Christmas. Just click the button and you will see my Amazon wish list. Items in all price ranges conveniently one click away.

For those that don’t want to buy me a gift I am fine with that I really don’t need anything anyway. Maybe you want to buy something for someone else? Use this search box below and I will get a little bit of credit with each purchase you make. It makes my day when I get a little email from Amazon telling me I have a gift certificate waiting. I haven’t made much since I started but I am just about to hit the $350 mark for basically doing nothing.
