Hey all. What’s the latest on sunglasses which look great with a business casual or formal dress code and don’t cost $300?

I’m pretty hard on my suits. Typically go with Suit Supply but they last maybe couple years before I start seeing holes and stuff. Any recommendations or is that just how it goes?

Thanks for making this bowl all gender inclusive. The other bowl simply was outdated and lacked any kind of diversity whatsoever at all.
