    Hey folks,
    Gonna be in Dub for the weekend, want to get the GF a decent pair of sporty/designer sunglasses (I've a lovely pair of sporty Oakleys are are in good condition even after 2 years of abuse so something along the lines of that would be great), budget around €150. I'm guessing a surf/clothing shop would be my best bet? I don't want poncy looking things that cover half your face, more streamline glasses that'll stick to your face when in windy conditions etc.

    Can anyone tell me where I should be looking? (Name and location please - i'm a culchie) :D Pref. as close to O' Connel st as possible - They're all I need to buy and i've a crowd waiting for me to go on the beer :D

    Cheers in advance

    Thanks guys - keep the suggestions coming....

    Is the "Sunglass Hut" in Jervis St still open? Someone told me they thought it was closed down?

    There's a couple of sunglasses places on the ground floor of Debenhams on Henry Street

    Alternatively you could head to the Outdoor adventure centres, one on Liffey Street and one off Grafton street if you're looking for something more durable.

    And if you want to pull a fast one.... Pennys :D

    Yeah, he could try there. It has a bigger selection than the Jervis one and I know this one is still open. :pac:

    Never buy sunglasses for someone without them being there.

    They need to suit a face and be worn to be bought.

    Thanks for the tips - she'll be there to try them on, hence not buying online
