Don't mind parting with $$ if quality is there...but $7k for a jacket ain't happenin'!

Porsche stuff is usually good quality. I was aware of the PD stuff, but had no idea that they had brick and mortar stores until I was in San Fran earlier this year. I now know that they have one at the Galleria here in Houston too. Anyway, when I stopped by the one in San Fran this summer, I ended up bringing home the cheapest set of sunglasses that they had. They were arou d the price of Choco's cheaters, but maybe a tiny bit less. I would never have paid that much for sun glasses, but the missus wanted me to get them.

I have to say, they are the most comfortable sun glasses I've ever had. They're also attractive and seem to work as well or better than any sunglasses I've even had. I think they were 5x the price of the next closest sunglasses I'd ever bought and I felt pretty decadent when I got those. I do love them though. I can wear them for a long time and the bridge of my nose never feels like its getting pinched or has a bunch of weight resting on it.

Funny thing is that a few months later I bought a Porsche, and the glasses match the color scheme of the car.
