My wife has a couple of these cases. They're great for protecting the sometimes fragile pairs like wires and the acetate hybrids that'd get crushed in a purse if they were just in a micro.
My girlfriend has it for her Restless. Although it is very strong and doesn't open accidently it is very big. This is of course necessary for the girlie shades with the big lenses. But it takes too much space in her handbag and is often left at home. Also the white tends to get a bit dirty.
A must if you have Wife like mine! She loves her glasses but not like I do. She is pretty good with using the cases, although her main complaint is the size and profile in her bag/purse. Understandable due to it's size, but a lot of the female frames nowadays are 'jackie-O' style so there is a reason it's big. The white obviously gets a little dirty. Like the other hard shell cases it does it's job. The color and design scheme is undoubtably geared towards Women.
My wife has never taken such good care of her glasses. This new hard case is embossed with a cool icon pattern and has a slick blue interior. It is a nice touch to the women's line that should strike the right cord with female consumers.
This comes standard with any of the new Women's line eyewear. It is the first step in Oakley re-doing all their packaging
