WARNING! For "Moss," wrong color is stocked! Box is incorrectly labeled!
I have attempted to order these glasses from Amazon a total of three times now. Each time I have received a box with a label that says "Frame Color: Moss; Lens Color: Silver Reflex" on the outside, but the actual glasses inside are dark brown with a brown lens. (I see that at least one other reviewer has had this problem but apparently still thought that the color was "Moss"...?!). The first time this happened, I returned them for a replacement, but the second pair were also mislabeled. At that point, I called Amazon to inform them that they must have an entire shipment of glasses that are labeled incorrectly. They assured me that they would contact their supplier and fix the problem. They said that the glasses in "Moss" would be temporarily unavailable on the Amazon site, but that they would be able to restock the correct color within about 7 days. A couple of days later, I checked back on the site and saw that, indeed, the color "Moss" was no longer available. Once it became available again, I waited well over a month before attempting to order them again. Guess what happened...yup, I received another mislabeled pair. I called Amazon again and told them the entire story from the beginning. The service representative assured me that he would personally see to it that I received the correct color glasses. I emphasized to him that someone needed to physically OPEN the box and LOOK at the glasses inside; that the box would say "Moss" but the color inside would be dark brown/black. He assured me that it would not happen again and arranged for me to return the wrong ones at no charge. He also said that he would send out the replacement pair via 1-day delivery at no extra charge. That was just this afternoon.Amazon has been very responsive, but so far they have not actually fixed the problem. If they did get another shipment in from their supplier, somebody dropped the ball by not checking it to make sure it was the correct color. I'd give them long odds for being able to get it right this time, but since it wasn't costing me anything for the shipping back and forth, I decided to take a chance. The replacement pair should arrive tomorrow. Check back here for an update!UPDATE! Can you guess what I received today? You got it...The box says "Moss," but the frames are dark brown/black with a dark brown lens. I am now giving up on Amazon and going elsewhere to purchase these sunglasses.My advice: DON'T BUY THESE FROM AMAZON if you want the frames in "Moss"...

Pretty good but not very durable
I had these sunglasses for a bit less than two years and for the most part they worked well. They are comfortable and for a non-glass lens the clarity is very good. The venting to prevent fogging up generally is adequate although from time to time it didn't really handle the elements.My biggest disappointment was the lack of durability in the frame. This Native model, and perhaps all of them, has very little ability to flex outward. Unlike models that either have metal earpieces and/or spring hinges, these stress the acetate frame every time you put them on or take them off. On a day that was in the 30s and when they had been in my car overnight, I went to put them on and one of the earpieces snapped off at the hinge. I managed a partial fix with a very strong superglue but within less than a week the bridge snapped as well. What I came to realize (and have had confirmed by people in the business of selling optical wear) is that acetate doesn't handle temperature changes or flexing all that well over time.As a consequence I have come to realize that if you are going to wear glasses like these with unreinforced acetate frames and lacking any flex at the hinge, you need to have frames that slide easily onto your head without flexing outward and you need to not leave them in a car when it can get either hot or cold.Personally, I am switching brands. I have bought a pair of Julbos that have a strong metal frame, and a pair of Persols which, while still acetate, have considerable flexibility built into them as well as a flexing pivot at the hinge.

Native Eyewear is the best!
I got this 15 months ago and to tell you the truth, it still looks brand new even with my daily use. It's the perfect fit for my face. You can assure this is high quality.Only issues I have is if I accidentally drop it to the ground about 5 feet, my lens will pop out. But I guess that comes with the territory with interchangeable lenses which I use frequently as well. Also, have an issue when I'm outside and I have to look at my phone with the anti-glare protective screen on it, it's hard to see the screen so I have to take off the glasses. But otherwise, these glasses are amazing and light. A lot of times, I would come in the house and would have it on my head for hours without realizing it.It came with the Silver Reflex (Gray) lenses and a blue polarized lens as well. I use the blue polarized lenses when I'm on a construction jobsite where safety glasses are required. These glasses help greatly with driving and the glare.I recently purchased new Natives from another source because it was cheaper and I got a different model, the Endura. Those were a little bigger in size but still same high quality.

Now I have a complex about myself and my large head apparently
SO I have had the Zeal Meistro glasses for about 6 years and still the best but they stopped making them and fixing them. These looked great so....lets give it a try. A lot of reviews on the actual website and here mention that they are for a large head. If so my head must be massive as these are small for me especially on the nose (tight). My nose is of average size and thought my head was normal till I got these. I even walked around asking people if I had a large head. I do really like the glasses but now wondering if these are...child size.

Excellent Sunglasses
I love these sunglasses. I have worn them now for about a month and enjoy them. They have become my favorite sunglasses. These glasses are durable, easy to clean, and the polarized lenses are perfect for driving especially with the darker tent. I find that I can see perfectly even on a bright sunny day with these glasses and have worn them while swimming several times (they don't float).Overall you can't go wrong with these excellent sunglasses. They are worth every penny.
