The frame is a bit shinier than it appears in the photo and doesn't exactly give the feeling that it's metallic. The lenses have a nice color. It's a very good choice for anyone who wants to have very good sun protection (exactly the same as more expensive glasses) while spending much less. From the same brand Polaroid, I also have a pair of plastic ones, in those the construction seems much better, I would recommend the plastic ones from this company.
