Title: Very pleasantly surprised!
Review: I'm a self-described sunglasses nerd. I've owned dozens of pairs of sunglasses over the years and I'm VERY fussy, especially when it comes to lenses. So when my beater glasses (my beloved Revo Crux C shades) finally got too smudged and scratched to be of use anymore, I went looking for something affordable but still good. My Revos eventually succumbed to sweat and oils, which worked their way into the micro pores of the polycarbonate lenses, producing a haze which I couldn't get rid of, no matter how many well I cleaned them. So my criteria this time around was GLASS lenses, not polycarbonate (plastic). I'm not opposed to plastic lenses per se... they have their place in the world and have certain advantages, such as being lighter in weight and naturally blocking UV light, even before the UV treatment is applied. But this time, since I was looking for shades that could take sweat and sunscreen being dripped on them, as I'll be using them working outside around the house, I opted for glass lenses, under the assumption that they would be easier to clean. Most shades with glass lenses are fairly expensive though. I didn't want to spend a lot, since these will be subject to abuse and harsh conditions. So I figured I'd give these a try, honestly not expecting much.WOW, was I pleasantly surprised! When I put them on, I almost yanked them off again to check and make sure I wasn't sent a pair of Smith Techlites instead. The view through these lenses is startlingly crisp, clear, and pleasant. I ordered black frames with G-15 lenses, which are fairly neutral with a slight greenish tint. The literature claims they allow 12% light transmission, which is fairly dark, but compared to other lenses they don't appear super dark. Lack of clarity can contribute to a false perception of darkness, so my theory is that because these are so clear, the world appears a little brighter than it would when looking through cheaper lenses with the same transmission rate. There are numerous ways to measure lens performance, but without getting too technical, these just jumped into my number 2 favorite glass among brands I've tried:1) Smith Techlite2) These (with Corning G-15)3) Ray Ban Chromance silver mirror4) Ray Ban Chromance blue5) Serengeti 555nm6) Persol blue polarized7) Costa 580g grey8) Persol blue non-polarizedThe frames are pretty good quality as well. Nothing special, but they appear sturdy and the hinges are reasonably robust. I wouldn't expect any problems.Stylish? No, not really, but then again, no wraps are stylish. Show me a pair of wraps and I'll show you a dude who thinks he looks cool but, in reality, very definitely does not. Trust me, I was that dude for years. That being said, wraps do have some things going for them - they are more protective, both from flying debris, as well as sunlight sneaking in around the perimeter. So they're great for working outside, fishing, and other outdoor activities. Just try not to wear them in public unless you want to look like a dufus.Fit wise, they hug tight to the face. I have kind of a large head and somewhat flat face, so I often have trouble with glasses bumping the tops of my cheeks. These do that a little bit, but it's not bad and thus tolerable enough that I'm definitely going to keep them.With a vague name like BNUS, I was expecting them to be made in China and dumped on Amazon. But they claim to be "Italy made" and the parent company (Bini Optics) seems to be based in Chicago. So whatever. Somebody apparently got the idea to produce decent quality frames and outsource lens production to Corning. Frankly, this was a stroke of brilliance. I'll definitely be checking out some of their other models. My only advice to the company would be to change their name... what kind of a name is BNUS??

Title: Probably the best budget glass lens sunglasses out there...with slight frame issue
Review: I have a real ocd problem with scratches and smudges on a sunglass lens, I just can't take it! That's why I go for a glass lens for there scratch resistance. The lens in these sunglasses are great. They have held up to some regular abuse that I give them. Not a scratch one on the lens or coating.The four star rating is mainly for the frames. The fit and feel are nice and the rubber ear and nose pads are not only comfortable but keep the sunglasses in place and secure well. BUT, the rubber ear pieces and the logo emblems fell off within a couple to few weeks. I managed to super glue the ear pieces back on, but I have no idea where the emblems fell off.I do recommend these sunglasses, they are great. Just have a little super glue ready!

Title: Awesome sunglasses... excellent quality!
Review: This is my second pair from these guys and I gotta give them a review because they are such such awesome and well made shades! They are in my opinion every bit as good as a nice pair of Ray Bans...and in fact they fit even better as they seal out the light around the edges almost completely. The lenses are very clear and hola up very well with cleaning and use etc. I use my sunglasses every day and put them through some hard miles with lots of saltwater and backpack and job site time clocked in...and these sunglasses have impressed me. My other ones are polarized and I love them both. And especially for the price...unbeatable!

Title: Perfect for everyday use...
Review: First purchased in 2020, I've had some time with them and have worn these sunglasses for a few years now with near everyday use... I wear them a lot and for everything "out in the sun" (driving, fishing, casual, etc., etc., etc.,) and honestly, I have no complaints whatsoever. I really like them! In fact, I like them so much that I picked up another pair with a different lens tint just to have on hand. They fit me well, stay on my head, stay put on my nose and I don't have to constantly adjust them because they don't slide down with sweat in hot weather either. Plus, they look cool and I get a ton of compliments... The glass lens is a nice bonus with the price point too. When I first got them I thought they might be on the heavy side with glass lenses, but they're really not. Oftentimes I don't even notice they're on. Speaking of the polarized lenses, they are fantastic! They really bring out colors of things that most don't or won't see without a polarized lens, because they aren't seeing what I am with these sunglasses! They also came in a super nice case with a microfiber cloth, but the pair I wear all the time haven't seen the case since I took them out of it! My other pair rests in the case in my fishing pack ready to go... I have some "high end" polarized fishing specific sunglasses costing more than 2x as much as what I paid for 2 of these and they are every bit as good and maybe even "better." I certainly wear these more often and they are soo worth the asking price in my opinion... Highly recommended!

Title: Amazing!
Review: These glasses are fantastic! The polarization is great, the lenses are sharp, the wrap-around shape works well on my scooter, and the little rubber accessory pieces are comfortable and keep the glasses close to your face while riding. If there is any room for improvement it would be the case. They give you a plastic case that is meant to be kept on a dresser or something, and a thin microfiber bag. They should eliminate both of those and include a decent nylon case with a functional clip for hanging from a belt loop.

Review: Bought to replace cheaper "TAC" lens glasses which had bad distortion. Very clear and seem well made (1st day impressions). Just wonder where they are really made. Box says China. Arm says Italy. Hmm??
