  • Nice glasses

    Chuckie

    I bought my prescription sunglasses a month ago. They fit very well and are stylish. Customer service in the store was excellent. I was in there twice. I just wish you took Eyemed insurance.

  • Vela frame Non Rx Sunglasses.- Green bottom

    RoRo

    I love the wide size & full eye coverage as well as the colorway and lightweighness of the Vela frame, I ordered mine with poloarized lenses and opted for the gradient green color but when I received them, the lenses appeared more gray gradient than green gradient so I need to bring them back to the retail store in Rockefeller Center to double check if there are indeed green gradient or grey?

    The frame looks good but comes in only one size, wide. That’s not good, should have more options.
