Sunglasses for any budget

Persol PO2910 $149.99 (reg. $340) | CK 7708S $63.98 (reg. $207) | U.O. Sq. Aviato $14.00

Happy Summertime.  You’ve got restaurant patios to sit on and events to attend.  Cocktails to sip and sun to soak up.  Women are in their tank tops and summer dresses… and y’know… she deserves some flowers or a beer at your favorite pub for that.  Save some summer spending cash by taking advantage of these cheaper-than-normal sunglasses.  Because paying full price right now, means one or two less nights out with Ms. Tank Top.

Persol PO2910 – $149.99 (reg. $340.00)

A modern frame from a classic name.

Persols for more than half off.  That’s… bizarre.  The styling will be a little too modern for some, but you still get that sweet arrow hinge.  Made in Italy, and you’ve got 30 days to return them if you don’t like them.

Calvin Klein CK7708S – $63.98 (reg. $207.00)

That's not black, that's Navy.

Another modern rectangle-type shape with thicker earpieces that hook up then taper off at the end.  Nice silver side logo detail, plus you get an unusual color option.  Navy.  Not black, but Navy.

Urban Outfitters Square Aviator – $14.00

Great shape and less than $15.

Credit to the sharp eyed Conor M. for sending in this tip.  $14.  Only fourteen bucks.  That’s two drinks with your warm-weather attire wearing lady-friend.  I don’t even really like aviators, but I’d wear these.  Squared off at the bottom so you won’t look like some puking frat boy on spring break.  Very nice.  Thanks Conor…

And now a question because I think answers vary greatly.  To you, at what point does a pair of sunglasses become “expensive?” $50?  $100?  $175?  Because they can get up there… quick.
