DUCO vs Maui Jim
I like these sunglasses and they are a great substitute for the Maui Jim Sports sunglasses. Maui costs $193 or $219 compared to DUCO $25 or $32. Yes, I know...there's a vast difference in price which may also effect the technology and manufacturing of the glasses, but, if you don't have that expensive budget, these glasses are quite nice. I've previously owned those Maui Jim Sports sunglasses and they were very nice...one would EXPECT it given the price. But, these DUCO glasses are great for driving and for at the beach. They are very light weight, comfortable, and cuts the glare really well. Given those 3 attributes, I would elect to purchase less expensive sunglasses for essentially the same visual effects as the expensive ones...my eyes could not differentiate between the two.

Nice sunglasses at a reaonable price
The Ducos are nice, fashionable sunglasses suitable for many outdoor activities. Unfortunately, they don't work well for driving for me. The lens is a little darker than I like for my driving glasses, and the very noticeable polarization is distracting. I will keep them for general use, but I'm going to order the cheapo Maxx glasses with the HD Driving Lens for use in driving. The Maxx cheapo (<$25) lens are fabulous for driving, last only about a year of getting tossed around the car.P.S. I rated the Ducos as five stars for scratch resistance, but I haven't had them long enough to see if that is true.

Better Than Expected
Ordered these to try but was skeptical about the quality because of the price. Pleasantly surprised and wear them almost every day instead of my Maui Jim’s. Very light weight and seem to be very well made and durable. I’m ordering another pair to have as a backup in case anything happens to these.

Great shades
This is my second pair after I was careless with the first one. I will keep buying them as I am pretty picky about my vision in the Florida sun. These wear and look great also.

At last, after trying on a couple dozen glasses, DUCO's are it!
Whether the sport, or full frame designer make, Duco glasses fit and style are the best sunglasses for me. I have a rather large angular face, and I have ordered and mostly returned a couple dozen pairs. Amazon, forgive me. Glasses are a very personal choice for style, and fit can be vexing online. God, I have tried on so many choices, and kept a couple dozen. There are glasses I would have returned, but alas, I could not find the box they came in. Never, never, order a couple dozen pairs when you have felines that assume they have new toys. I now own a 1/2 dozen I will never wear. I have learned another life lesson, after my first pair of eyeglasses I purchased on the island of Capri. When I could have waited until I returned to my residence in Paris. Capri, is like being trapped on a larger Rodeo Drive. I managed to purchase my first prescription glasses for over a grand. Of course, my insurance would not cover them. When purchasing your first glasses, bring a trusted friend, lest you will agree to everything a lovely salesperson will implore you chose. I was suckered into the same when I purchased a BMW Z4, for my mother. Oh well.I will take photos of my sunglasses in a couple of days, so you may judge. Both pair are brown frames with brown plastic lenses. This year I have been stuck at my home in Florida, praying that I will not be imprisoned for the summer, which should begin within two weeks. Heavy glasses, like my Italian eyeglasses, are exhausting within a few hours. The Duco's, each coming with a cleaning cloth and attractive molded cases are light weight, and held firm with spring arms. I am thankful for plastic lenses, as I am writing with my tri-level, color adjusting, multi-intensity eyeglasses. Whose eyepads are digging into my nose. The Duco's both have pads, but do not feel as if they belonged in a gym, with weights on each end. They also do not leave imprints on your face. You can save that area for your face mask. ☆ During our Covid-19 nightmare, heavy glasses are painful where mask ties rub around your ears. The Duco's are in no way painful, as they are spring loaded, and do not wrap around the ear. The two pair are quite similar, although the designer pair have a full metal frame, and what looks like a far better set of springs on the arms. The metal on the designer pair feels more substantial. I can not say why. For a few dollars more, (both pair are brown frames with brown lenses) the designer pair seem more substantial, better made, and appear that they will last longer. Each are smartly designed, (in Italy) and for the price, I have every color for apparel. As my mother has passed, and left me her Aston Martin convertible, I had to sport James Bond glasses, Italian styles, and perhaps something out of 'A Clockwork Orange". I have tried SO many glasses, and without my high end stores open, I have tried almost everything, though Amazon. I am saddened to use the free returns, and you really realize how many glasses you try before you choose. But these are very different days, and I have purchased at least a dozen. The Duco's, are the largest of my collection, and the least expensive. Very happy with Duco, and the compliments just keep coming. I WILL post photos in next couple days. Great buy!I will try to answer any questions you may have. I have been unhappy with some companies that do not post important sizing. How could you know if the product fits? I do not know if they are truthful about eye protection. Any company. There should be a law stating the true protection of their products. My older eyes would like to know!

6 years and still going strong
I've kept these in my ungaraged car in the US South for most of the six years I've had them, since I figured the metal frame would hold up to the heat well. These sunglasses have exceeded my expectations for durability, as they still seem to be in good shape, though the "sun side" of the frame is slightly discolored upon close examination. They perform fine as sunglasses, fitting my larger-sized head comfortably, though the metal frame does make them a bit heavier than all-plastic sunglasses, understandably.The downside is that during the summer, the metal frame gets scorching hot, so I have to carefully hold it by the lens in front of the AC vent for a few seconds before I can wear them.
