@wootiewooterson: Some day, there will be a deal for Aviator Mirrorshades. Not yellow lenses. Mirrorshades. I'd at least like them to be dark, not yellow. I can dream. Aviators are the very best possible shape, of course. I'll wait. Sooner or later, there will be mirrorshades from eagleeyes.com, and I will buy three pairs (because decent quality mirrorshades are hard to find).

@wootiewooterson: If they aren't silver mirrors, then they are NOT mirrorshades, no matter how sparkly and reflective they might be. I suspect their fancy sun filtering stuff may prevent it. I did notice, this was a sponsored deal, that someone had said there were mirrorshades, but they weren't in the aviator section. I want both.

Hey:

No apollo gold for poor shrdlu. Forbidden to me. How mean of them.

[Edit] I went directly to the site, and they're just kinda sorta reflective, and VERY yellow.

I had a pair, but had to return them. They made my head tilt to one side.

@dsorgnzd: Was it a result of bent frames or the polarization of the lenses? I never had that problem myself.

What actually makes these different from other sunglasses I can get from my optician in shades of yellow and brown?

While I realize that this is just a style of sunglasses, for the record, "aviator polarized" is an oxymoron. Pilots do not wear polarized lenses because it makes the instruments difficult to see.

@luke42179: I believe the windows in the cockpits are polarized also. Using polarization on polarization looks VERY bad. I found that out when I used to sell Revos. I had a pilot come in to buy some polarized glasses and he returned them due to what you stated for some non-polarized. BUT in defense of the statement, Aviator is a style.
