My last two sunglasses were 1) Action Optics Exuma, photochromatic/polarized clearwater copper lens and 2) Smith Super Method, polarized brown lens.
I was looking for a marriage between my prior two sunglasses. The Kaenon Porter was my solution. Huge coverage, can't see frame in my field of vision. The lens quality is remarkable to say the least. I've never come across anything clearer than these lenses, including the glass-lens Action Optics.
These are by far the best sunglasses I've ever owned. I will likely never buy a brand other than Kaenon. Did I mention the mengol nosepads? These things have every feature I could want. Frames solid. I could go on forever. Best of the best of the best.
Eden was too big. I was assured Porter would be smaller, and they are, but they're still too wide for a typical woman's face. I would say I have a medium sized face, if anything it's probably wider than the average. Yet the Porters were definitely too wide for me.
They're not as ridiculous as Edens, but I still occasionally catch myself looking like I'm wearing Grandpa's wrap-around sunglasses that fit over prescription glasses (Ray Charles, if you will, but nowhere near as cool looking as Ray!)
Having said they're too wide, they do fit the head quite nicely, though. The arms snug your scull, and the nose pad really does keep them from falling off.
I probably can give them 4 stars, but let's face it, at this price, you want to look b!tchin.
Still not sure if I'm going to keep these, some days I think I can live with them, other days, I feel like a kid wearing dad's glasses.
If you're a guy with medium sized face, these will probably look really good. But if you're a woman with average sized face, these will be too big for you.
These are Kaenons so the lens quality is said for. I'm mainly commenting on the look of these shades. I tried these + Georgia + Eden. I ended up keeping the Georgias. The Porter was surprisingly small to me, both the lens size and the temple width. These were tight on my head.
