I have had these sitting around, just being stored in the case for a couple of years. I have hardly ever worn them at all, just cause I have others that I like on me better. They are POLARIZED! There is not a single scratch on them, I mean they are in PERFECT condition. When I bought them, it was mainly cause of how much I loved the design on the temples and I still love it. They come with a case. They were also purchased at a Sunglass Hut so they are 100% authentic. Handmade in Italy.
