Default Sunglass discount?

Does anyone offer sunglass discounts for pilots?

The cost of sunglasses had totally gotten out of control. Luxottica now owns just about every brand we wear.

There brands are Ray-Ban, Oakley, Persol, Chanel and Prada, Giorgio Armani, Burberry, Stella McCartney, Versace, Vogue, Miu Miu, Tory Burch, and Donna Karan. They also own Sunglass Hut.

Almost zero competition in this market.

Walk in the store, find what fits and then buy it online... Save $20-50.

Pilots are our business. 100% guarantee. So, I am not trying to make a commercial, just offer a service. No risk.

FLIGHTSUNGLASSES.COM - UP TO 40% OFF SERENGETI SUNGLASSES (INCLUDING PRESCRIPTION).

I am Southwest Airlines pilot and I just opened a Serengeti Sunglass business where I specialize in "Pilot Friendly" Sunglasses. I definitely have the best selection on the East Coast. I can answer questions and suggest models based on pilots needs (headset style, face shape, etc).

All Serengeti Models are:
- Photochromic (get darker in Bright conditions)
- 2-year Warranty
- Titanium frame, or high-grade thermo plastics
- Non-Polarized and Polarized

I will be starting video reviews on Youtube and my Facebook page shortly. I also will be putting out a great video about the negative aspects of using polarized lenses in a modern, digital cockpit.

If you want to know why you don't see Serengeti around the USA like you used to, it's because of Luxottica. There is a great 60 Minutes segment about that. You can see it here:http://youtu.be/gDdq2rIqAlM or on my Facebook page: Flight Sunglasses

Prescription Serengeti Sunglasses are a great deal on my site (saves several hundred dollars).

Hope this is helpful,

Arby
