I used to have a pair of aviator sunglasses just like these from Pacific Sunwear. Somewhere along the way they were stolen by one of my brother’s friends during his bachelor party got lost. I really loved those sunglasses. They were the right proportion to my face (most aviators are not) and they were simple and classic, but also really cheap at $15.

I went back to get another pair but they were out of stock. Now, you’d think it would be easy enough to find a decent cheap pair of aviators, but you’d be wrong. I had to supplant them with a horrible pair of NASCAR-branded wraparounds from Walmart. (If you are anyone who knows me very well, you know my loathing for everything having to do with the National Association of Driving Fast and Making Left Turns.)

Finally, today I was able to find a viable replacement, the pair of $13 Merona aviators shown above. Target came through for me. Here’s hoping they don’t get eaten by a yeti lost again.
