    Gunnar Optiks

    Was wondering if anyone had any experience with these? Looking into buying the eSport Collection MLG Legend glasses. http://www.gunnars.com/remix/esport_mlg.php Is the link, planning to go to Micro Center and see if they will let me try them out. Read some online reviews about them being simply fantastic for people that sit in front of a computer for hours on end. Was wondering if BG had any reviews on these or similar glasses?

    Really not sure which one would make you look like more of a douche to wear.

    I've really liked my Spy Optic sunglasses - I've had a few different pairs. I like Arnette's as well. I don't sit in front of the computer wearing sunglasses though, I thought generally wearing sunglasses indoors or at night was kind of douchey.

    If you're looking for sport glasses, Oakley are the best. Yes expensive but nearly indestructible. Good fucking glasses and they can be customized a bunch.

    Wow.

    If you add that it wouldn't be anywhere close to cold enough to warrant either the coat or the scarf, yeah, that would be the douche exacto-meter.

    I think GameInformer just did a review on this, or at least similar glasses. In my opinion, you could probably go to walmart and buy yellow tinted glasses for the same effect these would have for $95 less.

    I've heard that there are glasses out there that help reduce eye stress when staring at a computer screen for extended periods of time, and I'm pretty sure Gunnar isn't what you want if you're looking for that.

    Thats pretty much what they are meant to do, though again I don't know how well they actually do it.

    Go get a pair of zero prescription lenses and have them AR coated. Does the exact same thing, and you dont look like a total douchebag.

    I value your opinion.
    Edit: Btw I already know what they look like, I surprisingly looked at the photograph before I even made this thread! I wanted to see if anyone had them and had something to say about their functionality not "You would look like a douchebag"

    Seriously.....?

    Fucking video gaming sunglasses?



    +1 to whoever said get oakleys. Better quality, and you won't look like a douche wearing glasses that say MLG on them.
