I'm looking for some shades to replace the Blocs I've had for a good 20 years, the mirrored lens was goosed, so I tried to take it out and put the orange one in last night, but the frame decided to snap, cost me £30 20 years ago, so they've been very good value. So, I'm now looking for another pair with 3-4 lenses (mirror, smoke, orange and clear) and I'm budgeting under £50, I like the look of the Uvex, BBB, dhb and Avenir, can someone take a minute or two to let me know if they are any good or what else maybe worth a looksie.

Endura Stingray is a pretty good deal - clear, orange, light smoke, polarised:

I had the Avenir sunglasses for about 18 months until they decided to give up the ghost when frame snapped.
Up until then they held up pretty well, and the lenses were a cinch to change. The only thing I would say about them is they kept sliding off my nose due to the curvature of the frame which was much more than other brands I've used.Reporter: "What's your prediction for the fight?"

Bought a pair of Rudy Project:
Genetyk / Racing White / Impactx Photochromic Red Lens.
Check out their website, as I picked up a pair that came with a set of spare lenses.
In terms of fit, optical clarity and style, they are spot on.0 -
+1 for Rudy. I have the clear/gray photocromic lenses. No need for multiples, clear when dark and and dark when the sun's out...
A little out of budget though but they are the dog's.0 -
I think mine cost less than a fiver from Aldi.
If the lenses get too badly scratch, I'll throw them away.
If the frame breaks, I'll throw them away.
Either way, I'll only be down a fiver.
The older I get, the better I was.0 -

Great retro look, good optical quality.
YMMV
Retro? What's retro about those?
Now these are retro!
