He did buy them. The Narrator is making enough disposable income to spend on high end stuff at the start of the movie. Of course he bought the sunglasses for an expensive price as part of cosplaying Tyler Durden. Tyler Durden would never buy them, but he isn’t real, just the Narrator pretending to be him.
Outside of shooting or bicycling or whatever you might need reliably clear vision for, I could never understand expensive sunglasses. There's no particular lense, material, or fit that justifies the cost.
Whats a good pair of glasses to get that aren't too expensive I only wear like gas station ones and should probably get a better pair being an adult and all
I just buy the ray bans knock offs anytime I break my ray bans knock offs I just don't like sun in my eyes driving on the freeway with it facing me on the way home after work
Just make sure you're getting something polarized. Easiest way to check is to hold them up in front of your phone screen and rotate the lens back and forth 90 degrees, if the screen brightness changes it's polarized and will cut the glare a lot better for that highway driving.
If you have a HUD in your car it will block that too though.
those glasses they give to old people after dilating their eyes/after surgeries cannot be topped for comfort and function. always keep a pair in your car
I am literally him
Back then, Oakleys were cheap. Now, Fight Club would be mocking them as consumerist.
I only wear Oakley goggles
found the muad dib
>Back then, Oakleys were cheap.
What
Oakleys were cheap as frick before Luxottica (Rayban) bought them.
>cheap
they were still $100-$200.
and not much better than the $5 ones you can get at the gas station.
Go google how much Jacques Marie Mage or Matsuda sunglasses cost
I can't believe those Italians also bought Rayban and shipped a bunch of the frames to be made in China.
No
I was gonna say, Tyler wearing 2K sunglasses makes 0 sense. But even back then, that specific pair couldn't have been cheap
He had just beat up a cadre of prostitutes and their pimp which is why he showed up looking so fashion
Tyler wearing designer sunglasses makes perfect sense
Oh at that point of the movie I guess...
I always find myself thinking about the first part only
what if he didn't buy them but stole them?
Imaginary friends don't pay for clothes.

you failed to realize in the course of playing tyler, he also actually did a bunch of illegal shit
Oakleys weren’t cheep back in the 90’s
lol surly you don’t get the Irony though
this
>100-200
>t. zoomer
Same thing with Rolex. Ché Guevara used to wear one because it was a good accurate watch for military operations.
Fight Club is a stupid movie and you're a rube if you took any single part of it to heart.
I could make those exact same pair of glasses in half an hour with like $10 worth of materials.
No you couldn't.
yes I could.
Nope.
Yes he could
Then why don't you have your multi million dollar brand yet? That's because you're lying
no it's because I currently have all my styrofoam and blu tack invested in another project.
It's a child sex doll isn't it
But I thought Oakleys were boomer chud tier
They are who that else is going to spend $3k on unfashionable shitty sunglasses
Lol Imagine buying overpriced movie tie-in merch for $2k when you could just drop a couple hundred on J.F. Rey Kaz gear instead
Lamao, imagine not buying shit at all, which this movie is about.

For me, it's the ray-ban balorama
>ray-ban balorama
sick
Ray-Ban would sell at gas stations for 20 bucks.
Luxxotica buys up all brands and sells them for 200 instead.
The bizarre thing is people buy them. The markup is astronomical. It’s mass produced plastic. There’s a reason they used to cost nothing.
I'm going to getva Timex instead of a Rolex. What is the sunglasses equivalent of that? What is the Timex of sunglasses?
The things you own end up owning you

frick that. "Better ones" are a scam to milk you of money like a woman. If you have gas stations shades you like then frick it stick with them.

Oakleys are not comfortable. Certainly not the blocky looking ones.
