The AF issued us American Optical sunglasses, not Ray-Ban. Here's a review of the two brands, FWIW:

Interesting, I have never seen them at a sunglasses hut or the like.

Guess it was a decade+ ago that I purchased a pair of serengetis. A chain store at my local mall was where I tried on and chose them.

Go to Amazon. You can get them cheap from the WN guy and get them delivered two-day, with free shipping!

It doesn't solve the try on dilemma. You'd think serengeti would realize that this is a try before you buy product and get them in more retail outlets. Now if it's free return shipping somewhere I'll just order every frame and ship them all back except the one pair I keep or all of them if none work.

Costco usually have a few different models of Serengeti's.

There's a locally owned sunglasses store (can't remember the name) just outside security in JAX that carries Serengetis.

I just received my pair from flightsunglasses.com. I haven't flown with them yet but so far I'm really happy with the quality and the gradient of the lense. Great experience at flightsunglasses.com, I called the owner and he kindly answered my questions and had my pair shipped out really quickly. Best deal I could find on the Internet for that pair and free shipping as well

Last time I looked they were all polarized.

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like it's try on at Costco and buy online since Costco only carries polarized as someone posted.

Costco.com yielded no results so I guess I'll check at the store
