These sunglasses are perfect! Lightweight & have soft grips so they do not slide down my nose. I love them. Zappos is my favorite online store. I order today, and it is on my doorstep before I get home the next day. Zappos rocks!

These sunglasses are near perfect. The lens quality is the best around from all the other brands I've owned such as Oakley, Gargoyles, Ray-Ban, and are very scratch resistant. The nose piece fits comfortably and the feel of the frame is lightweight. My minor complaints are the lenses get smudged very easily and must be wiped often and the case shown on the website with the sunglasses was not the case I received. In addition the frame design does not allow for comfortable wear of certain types of low wearing hat/cap designs. Tip: I used to own another model of the same line and the frames break very easily in cold/freezing weather; so don't bend them in those conditions; allow to warm up before wear.

The comfort on these are ridiculous. The grippy pads on the arms grip to ones head without putting on pressure. the glasses are light, so one never feels like its worn. and the optics, for polycarbonate lenses, they are indistinguishable to my other expensive Maui Jim glass set (shoreline).

Awesome glasses! I wanted a pair of brown polarized sunglasses for a drive cross country and these worked perfectly! I am Asian and have difficulty finding glasses that fit my nose and cheeks properly. These fit great, and clarity is great too. First pair of MJ, but won't be my last!

Thank you Zappos! I received my Maui Jim's in the time frame promised and saved about $50 off the retail store price. It was my first order with you but I'll be back.

Great clarity and extremely lightweight and comfortable. Minus one star because the nose pieces aren't adjustable at all.

Love these sunglasses! They're lightweight and fit great. I'm Asian, with a round head, and have a hard time with sunglasses. My cheekbones still hit the lower rim when I smile, but the nosepads actually sit on my bridge and the temples are secure, but not too tight. I've worn Oakley Asian fit and these are indisputably better in all factors. I have finally found glasses that I can wear all day without them slipping off my nose or giving me a headache.

Trista (black vachettasta). Your sandal is exactly like the one you had last year, and I must say it is the most comfortable and fashionable shoe I've ever worn. Your shoes are wonderful. They fit superbly and feel good too. I have a foot problem, my arches have fallen and Donald Pliner shoes are the only shoes I can wear and get a perfect fit from every time. I have approximately thirty and I wish I had more. I've always worn name brand expensive shoes, but none can compare with Donald Pliner. Thank You, Gwendolyn Forte Wake Village, Tx.

Picture not what it seems. The photo is decieving because the inner side of the sandal is a leather strap that isn't shown in the pictue. That strap gave me severe blisters on the sides of both feet. The cushion bottom is comfortable but the fabric lining made my feet smell and my feet don't smell!

The Fifi sandal is one of my favorites. I bought it in white three years ago and received many, many compliments - friends frequently asked me where to buy it. The fit is perfect as is the design. It is one of the most comfortable sandals I have owned. I did notice an unusual scent from the sandal after I had worn it a while, but after I washed the liner with soap and water the scent disappeared. Thanks for offering this wonderful sandal again. A loyal customer.

Great Shoe. Leather just floats on top of your feet! This is a great looking shoe. I get compliments every time I wear it. Just a little heads-up if you have wide feet or a high in-step. It was a little tight the first couple of wearings. But, now that it is broken in it fits wonderfully. It looks great and is fairly comfortable, but, it is not a walking shoe.

Sexy sandal - So happy Donald is repeating this style - I get more comments on this sandal. Wish it came in other colors - some shade of red.

Pliner Fan - I am usually raving about the comfort of Donald Pliner. These actually hurt just a bit where it hits on the in step and where the inside of the shoe hit the foot. Everywhere else very comfortable.

They are more comfortable than I expected. I have somewhat of a wide foot so I bought a half size up and they feel good so far. Picture shows a fabric/mesh lining but mine are inline with leather. Great look for summer but get a pedicure first!!!

Fifi - I was so pleased to find this sandel again. I bought a pair last summer and loved them, even trying to buy another at that time. Fortunately, they were available at your site this spring. I was going to order 2 pair: the white and the black, but they were sold out. I ordered the gold metallic and really like them also. I wish you could obtain the other colors. I have had more compliments on this sandel than any other I've ever had. Thanks! Fifi Fan :)

Donald J Pliner Fifi - These are my first pair of Donald Pliner shoes and won't be my last! Very stylish sandal and the leather is just like butter. I have flat feet so the instep rubbed a little first couple of times I wore them, but now they fit like a glove.
