I'm so glad the adolescents of today have you as a role model. It'll make it easier to staff my factory with cheap labor in ten years.

I actually got my last pair of "police" by the cashier-is-an-idiot-and-didn't-scan-them, choice.
Not that I complained or offered to pay...

you forgot funky 75 cent thrift store glasses.
those are the clear winner.
also you forgot ray bans, which if your interested in spending money on something you will inevitably lose or break, are the way to go.

My sunglasses are prescription. I don't have much choice if I want to see clearly.
Ray Bans for the win. They are actually pretty well made, if you don't lose them or whatever they'll last a long time.

Yes. I literally got my 2007 sunglasses at some crummy convenience store in Indio and one of the arms fell off Sunday morning.
Fuck oversized glasses. They are terrorism.

I do the same thing. I try to bring as much expendable stuff as possible.

coachella is supermarket sweep for style-watching types. the festival's proximity to los angeles and hollywood means a generally fashion-savvy crowd. a few hours of people watching will give you a pretty good general feel for the state of young, hipster style today. in the last year or so, ray ban wayfarers and their neon knockoffs have been ubiquitous... i'm just real curious to see when the trend will wane. i doubt it will be much different this year though.

Last year, the pair of sunglasses I had on fell into the port-a-potty.
I'd bring a cheap pair if I were you.

i didn't see "fitovers" listed anywhere, so i picked blind person glasses. i guess they would have fit the "oversized" description, too.
fitovers, fitovers, fitovers.

True, fitovers are pretty fly.

I have to wear prescription sunglasses so I am going to hope for them not falling in the port o john. That would be an expensive piss.

it is a yearly tradition that I get a pair of sunglasses at the ralphs by the polo fields with my 5 finger discount

I don't know why anyone would bring designer ones, especially since they're at such a risk of being destroyed.
Last year, when I was crowd surfing Coachella, I kicked some guy in the face and snapped his shades in half. If you're out here...I'm sorry.

I wouldn't pay more than $5 for any sunglasses that I wear to a festival. Every time, like clockwork, they get destroyed and stomped on in some crowd.
But otherwise, ray bans are really good sunglasses.

I don't know about this one, but I do know the shades Mr. Wonder is sporting are Prada's so they could fit under two categories (blind man and designer).
