Believe it or not, there is a big difference between those cheap sunglasses you're probably used to wearing, and the kind that require a more substantial investment. Oakley's new Square Wire 2.0 polarized sunglasses ($210) are definitely worth checking out. The high-tech polarization reduces the glare without impairing clarity, and the lenses are tough, so they can withstand the occasional knocks and bumps on your boat without shattering. This means they're a great choice for all your on-the-water activities.
