Love my Racing Jackets. I am a runner, but I do a little biking as well, and the Racing Jackets are my glasses of choice as far as athletic activities go. The Gold Iridium lenses are, in my opinion, one of the best oakley makes. The Ram-air surge ports do actuly keep the lenses from fogging up to certain extent, although when it comes to the lenses getting smuged with sweat, your on your own. The frame wraps firmly around my face better than any of my other oakleys, and the unibatainium nosebombs add to the traction. One con that could also be considered a pro is the hingless earstems. Overall these are great glasses

The Racing Jackets have an interesting design. They do not hinge, and therefore cannot be folded up and placed anywhere neatly. They are meant for bike racing exclusively, so this feature isn't a problem unless you wear them elsewhere. I find it's hard to bring them places because of the lack of convenience, but as glasses they are pretty nice. The +Red makes everything a bluish tint, and is good for bright light and some darker areas, but not indoors or past evening. The frame sparkles slightly if you look close enough, and has vents to keep the lens from fogging up. However, I found these to actually fog up the most unless you're moving constantly.

Lens: +Red Iridium

Although I'll probably never own a pair of Racing Jackets, I must give credit where it's due. Similar to the Pro M Frames, the Racing Jackets incorporate a secure, one-piece frame with Oakley's three-point fit, resulting in a rigid yet stable pair of eyewear. The frame contours are sleek, smooth, aerodynamic, and aesthetically appealing to the eye - especially with the built-in "air flow ports". New Blue with +Red Iridium further showcases one of the most heralded color combos ever in this pair.

If only Oakley had made these in an "S" (small) version, I would have bought a truckload.
