I’m Exceptionally Picky
I did a lot of research before picking the glasses I’d buy next, since I usually keep wearing them for a decade and I usually buy a backup pair.
These have excellent clarity, excellent and sturdy build quality, and they come in XL, which is necessary because of my massive head.
I’d say they’re nearly perfect, with the only change I’d like to see being an option for silicon / softer ear pads, since I wear them constantly when I’m outside.

I love these!
I originally bought a smaller pair but returned them for a larger one and I really do love these. They're excellent for flying and driving and the clarity is top notch.

The sunglasses are superb, the military case needs some tweaking.
These are my third Randolph Engineering Aviator sunglasses. I had owned both 55mm to 58mm in that order, and now back to the 55mm for the more classic look. I purchased the Military Special Edition and could not be more pleased with the special sunglass case, dog tag, and beautiful information leaflet which makes this a great collectible item. Unfortunately two days into my ownership, my sunglass case broke the moment when I tried to snap shut the cover fold, the plastic lining inside the case snapped and crumbled to the mere force of the snap button. Not sure if this was from a bad batch. Luckily my Aviator was not inside the case at the time or it might have been scratched up from this incident. Now I am out of a case which otherwise would have been a beautifully designed collection item. RE team, going forward please make this case with better built materials for its lining!
