Quick review:

I bought these on 1 November 2011 and have worn them regularly ever since [I am editing this review on 19 January 2012]

These are sturdy sunglasses with good lenses. I like `em a lot. Had I paid the $49 asking price that appears at many sites on the internet, I would still be happy with these; nevertheless, I bought them from Amazon for less than that. They fit my face so well and the lenses are so clear that, twice, I have looked for my sunglasses in a panic when I was already wearing them.

PROS:
* Polarized Polycarbonate Lens... excellent at glare reduction
* Injected Grilamid Frames... I'm not certain what that is, but the frames are sturdy
* Megol Nose Pads... little pads that hold even better when wet
* Stylish look
* Excellent fit, curved to the face... very little light gets in around them
* Tough construction so that the lenses will not fall out
* Definitely well worth the purchase price

CONS:

* The lenses fog up sometimes after I cycle very hard and then stop.
* When I exceed 20 mph on my bike, air streams in under the lenses and into my eyes: may not be good for motorcyclists.

Long review:

I'll start with a little history, so you'll know what I am using for comparison in this review.

Before I bought these Sunclouds, I wore $125 Serengeti Napoli grey-tinted polarized sunglasses; at that time, I was employed at a job that required me to drive nearly eight hours a day, and the Serengeti sunglasses performed well in that capacity.

Years earlier, when I was a competitive skier, I owned $125 Vaurnets, and wore them for years until I lost them. They proved to be excellent sunglasses in all conditions, on and off the mountain.

The Serengeti lenses were excellent, but the quality of the frames were a great disappointment. The nose pads fell off regularly. The lenses were fastened by insignificant screws that had a tendency to back out of their grooves, and, thereafter, to allow the expensive lenses to fall to the pavement. The right lens fell out regularly and I kept putting it back in and tightening the screw. In one such mishap, while the lens did not split in half, it developed a crack through the middle.

Nevertheless, I continued to use the Serengetis until the left lens fell out on a bike path in Los Angeles and was badly scratched. At that point, fed up, I crushed the glasses between my frustrated palms and tossed them.

Thereafter, I purchased the Suncloud Pursuit sunglasses with the mirrored-blue lenses.

I have worn these sunglasses for nearly three months now on many cycling tours of the Westside of Los Angeles, and I have never been disappointed by their performance. Their polarizing effect is exceptional, the lenses clear and without distortion, their fit to my face comfortable, and the degree of their light-reduction exactly what I need.

When I consider that, three years ago, I paid $125 for Serengeti sunglasses that fell apart, and years before that, the same amount for Vaurnets that served me well until I lost them, I come to this conclusion:

These are good sunglasses. I won't say that they match Vaurnets for quality, but they certainly are much better than the Serengetis, and at about one-fourth the cost.

One of the reviewers said that these fit her head well, even though she is small. I have a big head and the fit well

Worn 3 times and nose piece fell out!

Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2015

My husband only wore these glasses 3 times and the cushion on the nose piece fell out while we were at an amusement park on a really sunny day. We usually love the Suncloud brand (have owned previous glasses for years with no problems) but these have poor adhesive quality. Pretty frustrating that basically a brand new pair of sunglasses came apart on a hot sunny day in South Carolina. Not sure if we will stay with the Suncloud brand; I could understand this happening with a pair that I bought at Walmart, but for $50 I expected better.

Nice, but not my style

Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2016

I have a medium face and I felt these shades were too large and intimidating (with the mirror lenses). I much prefer lighter, smaller glasses like the Maui Jims... but if you want some thick, substantial glasses, they were good quality for the price.

A Little Foggy, but Slick

Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2013

Verified Purchase

So far, I'm very happy with these shades. They fit well and have the level of mirror effect I was looking for (my eyes are not visible at all through them). They are quite darker, but they are also still very clear. They won't pose a problem on those overcast days where you still find yourself squinting.

The only issue I have noticed is their tendency to fog near the top immediately after I put them on. It takes maybe 15-20 minutes of cleaning and re-positioning before they stop fogging up. (Whether it's user error or due to the fit, I can't really tell.)

Really like them so far....

I am a man and have a medium size head. These fit me really well. My eyelashes do not rub the lenses and they fit really close not allowing any sun to get in. I bought these for my coming trip to Hawaii, they recommend polarized glasses so you can see well in water. I like they way you can see outside it seems really bright but doesn't hurt your eyes. I have worn sunglasses religiously for almost 36 years and these are really good sunglasses. I can't rate how they will hold up because i have only own them for a week but will update when I get back from Maui.

Quality and affordability for your face

Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2015

Verified Purchase

This is my 3rd pair of Suncloud Pursuit glasses, and I am still happy with the quality of these shades (hence the reason I keep coming back). The quality and durability is more than satisfactory, I am just really rough on sunglasses. Polarized lenses make all the difference in the world and with Suncloud you can get them at a reasonable price.

The fit is just a hair on the small side for me, however I have a giant melon (my poor mother) so that is to be expected and does not indicate any kind of shortcoming with these sunglasses.

10年アマゾンを利用させて頂いてますが、こんな商品は初めて届きました。正直笑った。
薄い袋に入れられて固定もなく、直でダンボールに、、、、。

・しかも、レンズが片方外れて破損している。
・ジップロックの袋がどーみても、ズタボロでした（笑）、何年、外に放置してたの？
・本体はツヤ有りブラックでしたが、あまりに細かい傷まみれ。中古品以下です。
これは商品ないです笑。

どーした、アマゾン。
いや、ハズレのショップをひいたかな、、、。
