To what extent does Luxottica control the sunglasses market? I didn't buy my fiancee a diamond engagement ring, and I'm really hesitant to spend much of anything on sunglasses for a similar reason; I'm not confident I'm getting anything more than a price-inflated product that's not due to quality. But then again, I know virtually nothing about the sunglasses market, even though I wear a (<$20) pair almost every day.
Also I'm afraid I'll lose them, or have them stolen (which happened to the one expensive pair of sunglasses I ever bought).

areReadyI’ve found that Oakley sunglasses are worth the money most of the time. Yes, they’re pricey, but I’ve had one pair for 8+ years and they’re still better than any cheap pair I’ve ever had. That being said, I rarely pay full price for them. I wait until Sunglass Hut or Massdrop has them on sale.
