I have now made 2 purchases of sunglasses from Shade Station and both have been excellent experiences. Genuine high quality products, exactly as pictured and described on their website. Very fast order processing and delivery via secure high quality known couriers. Absolutely flawless in ever way.
am severely sight impaired and prescription lenses do not work at all for me, so I have bought 2 Oakley frames with different lenses as my eyes are very light sensitive at bright and low light levels.
Since we are having such a great summer with actual high levels of sunlight I am using sunglasses all of the time when outside to protect my eyes from various glare and the varying brightness levels depending on areas and locations. I still need to use my long cane when around 0eopleas they are not always aware of people who are visually impaired and do not understand that there is a very wide range of varying issues to each unique and individual visually impaired person.
I use Oakley glasses because they fit me well and do not slip off my nose or face during and after exercise when sweat is pouring off of me!
Thanks a lot Shade Station. I will be buying again from you in the future!!!

Paid for next-day delivery but unfortunately didn’t receive my order until four days later
I paid for next-day delivery but unfortunately didn’t receive my order until four days later. The email communication was also quite slow, which was a bit disappointing.
That said, I’m very happy with the glasses themselves and was pleased with the product once they finally arrived. It would be really helpful if it was made clearer at checkout that certain items aren’t eligible for next-day delivery, as this would help avoid any confusion or disappointment around delivery times.
Overall, I’m satisfied with the glasses, but I do think both delivery and communication could be improved.

Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback. It’s good to hear you’re happy with the glasses, though I’m sorry the delivery and communication fell short of expectations. The delay was due to a query with the prescription details rather than the item not being available, but we appreciate you highlighting the checkout clarity as well, as that’s helpful for us to review. If you’d like us to look into anything further, we’d be glad to help.
Best Regards,
Shade Station
