This review appears under my wife's name/account, but this review is indeed by a male.
I've had my Ray Ban 3183-004/9A's for a few weeks here in Phoenix and have been extremely pleased. I initially struggled with the thought of paying over $100 for sunglasses, but made the leap of faith knowing the good reputation of Ray Ban.
I first learned of the 3183's after trying on a pair at Big 5 Sporting Goods. However, my Big 5 store only carried the silver/gradient polarized pair (004/82) and Ray Bans never go on sale there. I knew I wanted polarized, but personally find the gradient lens a little annoying. So I turned to Amazon in search of a non-gradient polarized 3183.
Pros: quality vision lens, thick lens, light weight (frameless side/bottom) and easy on my nose, down/around ears instead of straight back so no falling off or pinching my head and giving me headaches, curved design so sunlight doesn't enter sides, spring loaded bars so no accidental bending, made in Italy not China amen
Cons: the nose attachment is overly noticeable when I glance left/right but I'm adjusting to this minor issue, the way the lens attaches to the frame seems weak to me but only time will tell if it's actually a problem.
This is not necessarily a con, but I once read a review for the 3183's that said the protective coating on the ear bars wore off too quickly, but again, only time will tell if this is really an issue or just an isolated incident.
One other thing that confused me is how Amazon retailers sometimes refer to these glasses as "Sidestreet". My glasses say "Top Bar" and I never did find a Sidestreet designation on Ray Ban's website.
Bottom line: No regrets, Sunglass Express shipped flawlessly, and I'm even thinking of ordering a second gradient, yes gradient, polarized 3183 pair...
