    These wrap around sunglass wont make you look like a conservative dad. And for only $1,500, you too can not look like a conservative dad.

    Yes, there are REALLY $1,500. A bargin if you ask me.

          You’re not allowed to wear those unless you shave your head and put on a jump suit.

            Tbh if you were to wear those and a lab coat, shaved head and a mustache you’d be a very, very crazy scientist

              You are so right, I forgot about the mustache. But its got to be something like a horseshoe or a really big handlebar. Muttonchops might work too.

    Julbo cycling glasses. They’re also the best tint changing lens out there, but pricey, very pricey. They’ll look sport-dorky, which is it’s own weird vibe. I have these (got them on big sale) for cycling, hiking, and mountaineering. They have a non “cover” version that’s more normal looking, too.

    Make sure to get the kind without colored reflections. Mirrored might work, if you’re fit. Dark tinted is your best bet.

    Honestly I don’t care, I wear what I think looks good on me.

    In my case though it’s my regular glasses + transitions because I can’t see shit without them.

      Costco (maybe others too) have these new transition sunglasses and they work through your polarized windshield.

      Basically they start out with a light tint but get darker depending on the amount of direct sunlight. I really love them because I don’t have to switch going in and out of stores or whatever and I can wear them when it’s partly cloudy without feeling like it’s night out when under cloud cover.

    My eyes are very sensitive to light, so I’ve been using “Men in Black” - style wraparound sunglasses since the late 90’s.

    I am a dad, but pretty much as far from conservative one can be. Where I live conservative dads do not tend to use these at all.

        Those are the most generic sunglasses I can imagine. I’m pretty certain they don’t say anything.

        No offense taken. I picked them because they fit the most comfortably for me.

        My wife says I look like I’m on vacation this time of year because of how I dress in addition to the sunglasses.

    Just wear em but then don’t be an asshole. Disarm people. And call out people that assume you’re an asshole and try to talk to you like you’re one of them.

    My partner is bald (not by choice) and white (also not by choice) and he gets racist people assuming he’s racist all the time. Just call em out or make them feel weird if they say some fucked up shit to you.
