Disclaimer: As a BibRave Pro, I received a pair of sunglasses from Shady Rays for review. (They became my go-to vacation sunglasses!) As always, my professional and opinions are authentic and my own.

Are you an adventure vacationer, or do you go the pure R & R route? As a sun worshiper with light-colored sensitive eyes, I find no matter where I am- in the mountains, on the trails, laying on a beach, or having dinner and cocktails poolside, I need quality shades. Typically that means packing three or four pairs, one for each type of vacation activity. No longer.
Shady Rays Product Review
Since I take my research seriously, I took my pair of Shady Rays Signature Series Pink Sunset Ice Polarized shades everywhere I went for three weeks; Vermont, Saratoga Race Track, Washington D. C., a Team Galloway Long Island 12-mile training run on Jones Beach, Walt Disney World, and a Disney Cruise!! Because they are polarized and 100% UV protected, I was immune to glare whether hiking at high altitudes or laying in my hammock at sea level. Ah hem.
The Go-To Vacation Sunglasses
At a price point of $45 to $60, their performance far exceeded my expectations! Don’t you love when you don’t have to choose between form and function? My Shady Rays vacation sunglasses went everywhere I did- from Killington to the Bahamas- and the compliments flowed.
Don’t you just love the clear frames?! I will admit that I did experience some pistoning on my long runs. Alas, I have a loooong, narrow face, and that is often an issue for me. So, I am thinking of investigating the Shady Rays “X Series;” I think they may fit me better for racing.
Note that the Shady Rays brand is so confident in the quality and construction of their product that they stand by a Lifetime Craftsmanship Warranty and offer free replacements if lost or broken! Equally impressive is their corporate mission: 11 meals to fight hunger through Feeding America is secured with every order placed. To date, this altruistic effort has provided nearly 3 million meals. That’s a company I can support!
If you’re interested in joining this movement while purchasing your own new pair of shades, use the code “BR” for 50% off two or more pairs at ShadyRays.com.
The Shady Rays slogan is Live Hard. I’d like to add Play Harder. That includes Vacation Often. Hence, I intend to give these shades a workout as my newly designation official vacation sunglasses. Go ahead, shop hard!

If I didn’t have prescription sunglasses, I would definitely check these out! They sound wonderful for the price. I’m more of an adventure-vacationer but I do enjoy relaxing at the beach, too!

They look really nice and helpful for protecting eyes from the sun. Ideal for sunny vacations.
