These have been on my wish list for a long time, and I finally broke down and got them. I'm glad I did. They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn, let alone boots. They were designed for service use, so you know they wouldn't accept anything that couldn't be used for hours on end, in any given situation. Whether it's summer or winter, they will work perfectly. The rubber soles grip to wet surfaces and the shoe itself has room to breathe. I highly recommend these boots to pretty much anyone.

Color: Black

I bought a pair after having them offered to me for $125 – an offer too good to pass up. They by far the best boot I have ever worn, due to their light weight construction and sole that allows more mobility than other boots, and maintains a high degree of support and cushioning. Among other things, I have played paintball with these boots several times, they allowed the same running ability as if I was wearing sneakers, while having the protection of boots – something necessary when going through thick woods. In short, if you are looking for a comfortable, lightweight boot and can spare the cash, these are for you.

Color: Black
Can I give these boots 10 stars?

I was looking at these boots online for months but the price was hefty and seeing as I'd probably be ordering online I didn't want to spend so much and have them be uncomfortable when they arrived. I'm glad I just went ahead and bought them though. These boots are incredible. Trying not to wear them as I want them to last along time but they're warn pretty much constantly as they're extremely comfortable and versatile.

The vulcanized rubber at the toe and back seems to be very tough and after more than 6 months of constant use have yet to show any marks. The soles have warn a little in the middle but nothing to worry about. I polish these at least once or twice a month to keep the leather in top condition. I'll say it again, these boots are awesome, when mine finally die I'll be back on eBay to buy more.

Color: Snow Camo
The local Comor (probably closest thing to an O-store we have here when it comes to apparel) only had the Snow Camo and Black in stock, so I decided to go for the Snow Camo; seeing that it is no longer available on the oakley website. Despite my initial impressions of the boot from various pics on the net (I always thought the boots would be very heavy and stiff), trying them on I found they were in fact the very opposite; fairly lightweight and softer/more comfortable than I thought. Right now I am too paranoid to wear them outside (my last pair Nike Jordans only lasted about a week in "prestine" condition), but will probably have to when the snow starts pouring here in the north ;).

Color: Black, Desert.
Buy them, now.

More comfy than a lot of sneakers, lightweight, quick drying, I've worn mine for work on muddy sites, road running, mountain biking, hiking and chucked em in the washer to rinse in cool clear water and they come out good as new. they look good with jeans (desert) or the black ones with whatever, looking all over for snow and night camos, gotta catch em all!

Buy them now.

Color: black
these boots are absolutely amazing. ive had mine for a few years now and the bottoms are starting to look worn, but they are still the most comfortable thing ive ever put on my feet.

Color: Desert
These are so comfortable and yet you can tell they're a really tough, hard wearing boot as well. I've got a feeling there are going to be a couple more pairs of these gracing my shoe rack soon...

These boots aren't worth the cost. Unless you can get them at Gov't prices, don't get them. Sure, they are comfy and all, but durability SUCKS!! I wore my pair down in two months... the sole just came right off.

I'm pretty pissed. My Converse boots (yes, many are used in Iraq and Afghanistan by Special Forces- www.lightfighter.net) are lasting longer than these and I had 'em for almost a year!

Save your money for something else.

Oh, did I also mention it squeaks on wet surfaces like a horny mouse? Very un-tactical.

Shame, though. They do look nice. Then again, function over form.

first off ----i love the look of the boots 10 ---they are great ---and i enjoyed wearing them to work ----i bought a pair a year a go on ebay they were and stilll are the most comf. boot i had ever worn --i just got a new pair and they are brothering my right toe -----so i bought the wide version 9.5 because 10 was huge---and they feel bettter but their seams too much room when i walk or running===== and 10.5 seams to be tooo large long-- i tryed the galting and those fit perfect --but they are a different type of boot ...does anybody else have the same issue----????are they maiking them different ---or something ---does anybody have an idea ??????gus

The boots for me! The rubber soles grip excellent to all kinds of surfaces. I abuse them a lot and they still look great.
The best boots I've ever owned.

color: black

best boots which i ever had.
more than comfortable! i tryed these modell and it was just perfect from the first sec.
they make no noise if you walk with this awesome boots.
i was in the military and this S.I boots are just better better better!!!!!
no irritation at all even if you wear it for two days!
never had a better one....
okay the price is a little high but for this quality is the value fine.

Color: Night Camo

Had to have these to match my Thumps....10 stars all the way! My second pair of SI boots - not that I have even come close to wearing out my first pair!

Color: Black
I bought them off of eBay and saved $96 bucks. Having owned them now, I would pay the very high full price if I couldn't get them on eBay. They are as comfortable if not more than any major brand athletic shoe. They're very durable too. I wear them everyday. I just purchased the SI shoe. I will use them at work.

Color: Desert Tan

Now, I only got to try these on in the store, so my review probably won't mean as much as some of these guys who actually own a pair. But having said that, I was amazed at how comfortable these were just hopping around the store. They fit as comfortably as a good pair of hiking boots and probably would work just as well.

color ; black

i recently started wearing these , and i decided that when shop-opening-hours are long , i wear these. you simply don't get tired in these Boots !! comfort and support are A+ as far for style, you can't call them stylish. wearing those under jeans is okay as long as the jeans is boot-cut
grip outdoors is phenomenal, but when it rains , they get a little slippery

Color: Night Camo

What can i say about these boots that everyone else hasn't already said. Super light, probobly the most comfortable things I have ever put on my feet. You slip a little bit when walking on tile or wood with wet feet, but other than that these boots are the best footwear on the market.

just got the new boots from oakley ----check the web site----the boots---got new tread on the bottom ----way better then the old boots-----the boots dont sweak----and dont slip===they look and feel better then the old version=========check it out

The boot looks great but I only hope the military have a better issue than the civilian one, I've been wearing a pair in black and have found them to be the most comfortable boot Ive owned apart from my "chuckies" however I think their wet capabilities could be better, any water under foot and they tend to aqua plane, and forget moving in icey conditions unless you wanna go straight down on your butt. A new sole design would probably help here, as they are you best not use them in the wet.... interested to hear how other folk find there performance in the wet.... still a great looking boot and very comfortable to wear for 16hrs at a time

I'm gonna go against the crowd on this one. I have worn my SI's on and off for about a year now. These have too much ankle support and it still feels like I'm still breaking them in. I still have the high-top Nail boot and it is much more comfortable. It's hard to get them to lace up just right as my left foot frequently moves around in the boot a little. I am planning to purchase the new SI shoe when it comes out despite of what I'm saying here. I really like certain features about the boot but the ankle support drives me nuts when I'm walking a lot. Considering what I paid 180 for these on ebay I'm giving them a three. I'd love to hear from someone if they have had a similar issue.

Color: Black

what can i say? the S.I. Assault Boots are legendary. they're ultra comfortable and lightweight, and offer great ankle support and thick padding all around the boot. best of all they needed absolutely no break-in time unlike other boots. the overall design is unmistakably Oakley, which is to say they're very nice. the only gripe i can come up with is the lack of reinforced eyelets.

Color: Black; Desert
I've the boots everywhere and anywhere for about 6 months. Initial fit was excellent and break in was very short. Lightweight, tough and comfortable in a wide range of temperatures. Good traction in mud, rock, sand and loose gravel. Not waterproof, but dries quickly. Take caution when walking across smooth surfaces with lubricant spills (petrol, jet fuel, hydro etc.). After a few months of constant wear, tread has been noticibly worn down, but traction still agressive. Bought a pair of black for non duty use. Best boots I've owned.

These, incredibly, are what hooked me on oakley. I saw them in a catalouge at my optometrists office and had to have them. I agree with everyone else in saying that these are very comfy for your feet. I've done military field training in these and can say that they proform far beyond what even the oakley adds claim.

Amazing footwear. For something so bulky, and for an army boot, these bad boys are nothing like what they look like from the outside. Recommended for everyone.
Downsides: vulcanize rubber sole, eventhough very good, doesn't last as long. Also, the tongue is stitched by the ankle, making it a little difficult to slip into sometimes.
Incase of fire, at least you know your shoe laces will be fine!!!

Colour - desert

Extremely comfortable, hardly need breaking in.

They can be a pain to lace up - only criticism - but hey, that comes with boots. They provide plenty of support and look pretty cool. Nice one.

Color: Black

Good support for outdoor tasks, hold your footing in mixed terrain well, but can slip on slick (not just wet) surfaces. Don't try in snow, you will have to dry them out.

But don't get me wrong. These are the most comfortable boot/shoe I have had. I haven't had them for that long, but it seems the bottoms wear out fairly quickly. While they are good for outdoor training, the look isn't what you get from normal boots. Too "shoey" to get away with in business casual dress environments. A good specialized boot for outdoor applications, with a virtually non-existent break-in period, and something you can comfortably wear for hours on end.

Color: black

Can't speak high enough about these boots - 10 stars. Awesome everyday and in they gym. Bought them the day they became available from Oakley.com and am getting ready to add the night camo's to match my thumps!

Wore them for my last OIF rotation. They're great, the lacing doesn't put too much pressure on the tops of my foot, which is great for people with bulky feet.

Comfort and uncompromised dexterity is important to a military operator under fire and this is exactly what the SI Boot provide. As an avid airsoft player, I use these boots in environments and situations they were designed for and they perform exceptionally well. During a whole day of skirmishing on various terrain and urban settings I don't have to worry about pain on my feet and focus on the mission and the 'opfors'. Compared to other boots, they feel like, forgive me Mr. Jannard, all-terrain Air Jordans and have phenomenal traction. On every scenario I've encountered that required silent movement, they never disappointed me so far especially on concrete and asphalt. But they do slip on wet tile. I remember almost falling on my back inside a KFC floor that was being mopped and quipping to my friend, 'That's $250 military hardware for you.' But I'll forgive that since most engagements don't happen inside a fastfood, unless perhaps you're SWAT on a bad day. The price tag may be justified by the performance and the privilege to wear authentic military gear made by your favorite company. It also makes posers think twice about parting from that much dough. They'll more likely to opt for Air Jordans instead.

Color: Black
These are the most comfortable boots I have ever owned. To me they feel just like high top runners. I can move just as fast as these as in my running shoes. The ankle support is very flexible. They are holding up under well under the Canadian winter and are quite warm. The only problem I have with these boots is that when you walk on smooth floors when they are wet they squeek. Also,make sure to put a leather protector on the boot. Overall, if you need boots that allow you to be fast on your feet and are comfortable as hell these are the boots for you.

Love these things. Other than the Juliet, the SI Boot is probably Oakley's best current product IMO. They fit real well and is comfortable for long duration wear. The black version seems to get dirty real easily though and, as others have noted, doesn't work very well on wet surfaces or when wet in general. Hopefully they'll correct that with the next version of the boot. 4.5 out of 5 but rounded to 5.

I love these boots. I bought mine for $125 at the Cabazon O Store and they are one of my best buys yet. They are lightweight, comfortable to wear for hours on end and they offer very good traction on wet\icey days.

When we completed RANGERS training, my unit and I were given these boots as part of our Spec.Forces gear. They are unrivaled in comfort and performance. I went out a few months later and bought the civilian ones (Night Camo). They are pretty close to the military version. Only problem with them is after a while the leather started sqeeking when i was walking. Aside from that..AWESOME GEAR!!

Important note:
These are awesome boots. Just be sure you don't get the temperate model. The sole is not stitched all the way around, just a portion of the toe area. The hot weather ones have the stitching all the way around the boot. The sole become unglued after a month or two of use.

6 years later and they are still in great shape! Awesome look!
and now that they look slightly beaten up, they look better!

Snow Camo :)

Squeak, squeak, squeak...Hey! here comes the Oakley boots!!

When Oakley rep told us that they re-designed the sole, I thought, wow, they listen to the end-users.

Noooooop. The oakley still squak, and still slip on wet surface... Lesson to be learned here- just becuase the special force wear them, doesn't mean the boots works for regular joe like myself.

Very comfortable indeed, but they took some ankle support from the original 1.0 design...

At the end, nothing was updated, but made them just useless. Too bad.

The best boots i have worn in all my life, ever since i could tie my own boots laces. i have the Desert colour and i love them when i go out..a boot you can wear for more than 24 hours a day, i have worn these beautys for 48 hours in 1 go and they didnt hurt but my feet did smell abit when i took them off.
I have only just got them in the last 3 months, and i am planning on buying more pairs when i can.
trust me..you cant go wrong with these boots..
you will love wearing them everyday.!!

Aesthetically, the 6" Assault Boot typifies Oakley's design language. Combining a full-grain leather upper (black version), a solid rubber outsole, reinforced metal grommets on the inside of the eyelets for a superior lacing system, and a durable rubber material around the toebox for added protection, Oakley ensures that longtime fans of the brand will not be disappointed. To add to the appeal, this boot is surprisingly comfortable, and also features an anatomically-correct tongue which helps prevent an uncomfortable fit. One word of note, however: the boots seem to be slightly large. That is, you may consider opting for a half-size smaller than your normal size. In sum: a high quality, durable boot featuring premier materials and workmanship in a comfortable package.

These boots rule. I have the 6" Desert style. I wear them everyday and they feel like I have slippers on. I think the Special Forces and and the Military in General should make these standard for every member. Love the construction and the look. I especially like them because this is one of the preferred boots of the Navy SEALs.

The posting below is mine, sorry. Anyway, here's my follow up:

The boots worked in pretty quick. A few days. Still pretty loud, which I'm not the happiest about. Also, I've yet to see how they handle in the winter or on a fire/med call. They seem to be doing well. They're pretty comfortable but I wouldn't wear them all day. I've heard officers say that they're only good for urban settings. We'll see how they go.

I just got these, so I'll provide a follow up, later. I got these at a good price. I'll be using them for work and while I'm in the fire academy. They got such great reviews and I'm such an oakley nut, I decided to get these. The squeaking is pretty annoying. I didn't think it would bother me until I heard it, all day (today being the first day I wore the boots). The boots take some time to work in. I was on my feet from about 830AM to 730PM. Needless to say, it is now 4 and a half hours later and my feet are still sore. Very sad to see this, from Oakley. I had high hopes but if this continues, I'll be buying a different type of boot. A few people at the police dept. I worked at told me that the soles wear out quick if you wear the boots anywhere that's not concrete. I don't know how true that is but I figured I would include that in here. I will say that my feet are pretty warm in these. The tread seems to hold up pretty well. Also, in order for the boot to fully lace up, it must be tighten to the point where comfort is sacrificed. Three biggest turn offs: Foot support, too tight, and noise. I hope that it's just a matter of working the boots in and not a continuous problem. Like I said, I'll be back to provide a follow up.

These here boots are hands down the best apocalyptic zombie stompin boots that every ninja would be wise to acquire. Now that I have them my missions are accomplished with ease and I move like a cat or batman rather. Seriously tho glad I finally scored a pair at a maryland vault store for $85 but now that i've had a dose of the dopest boots ever made I am hooked. Oakley=Crack I mean yall kno what I'm sayin it is some bomb shiz made proper! FYI- mine don't squeak yet, been in the forrest the city in between and up cliffs and they hold a nice grip to a lot of things and being light and supportive to a degree like no other it enhances all movement while feeling loving to your foot like a slipper and when coming down hard from a jump off a high concrete ledge absorbed shock very well and gave me a superb landing that allowed me not to break my face which was nice. Footwear for warriors

I'm coming back almost a year later to give an update. I apologize to anyone who gets annoyed. I don't know how to log in or even get an account or I'd just edit my old entries.

I want to make it clear that I use these for their intentional use--on duty, only. I don't wear them out on a bike or paintballing. My experience is only for their "intentional use". I can't comment on anything further.

Anyway, I have the same boots as originally reviewed. Much to my surprise, they have held up like champs! I think I have the older model (based on the tread design).

I wear these at work and am constantly on my feet. They're great and provide a good amount of comfort. The tread is still in tact. I'm usually on concrete or linoleum floors. However, I do go in dirt and (in the winter time) snow. They handled great. The traction was awesome and they even kept my feet pretty warm.

The laces loosen up so you don't have to tighten them as much as when you first receive them. I do continue to hear squeaking, which is a turn off, but I'm not needing to be too stealthy in my job.

The boots were my main footwear when going through the fire academy. They did great and even handled well while climbing up different ladders. The boots have a leather/plastic piece on the toe so you're not able to shine that. I know in some departments you are required to have that.

For station/duty boots, these have served me very well. In the summertime, my feet get pretty hot so I bought the assault shoe. I recommend these to anyone wanting a station boot or a light duty boot. They're comfortable but the new models raise questions in the durability department.

3 skulls because they lack the clean toe, a steel toe, and durability is bad in later models. A lot of military personnel dislike them in the desert. They break apart easily out there. However, I only hear that in the desert tan ones.

The best boots i have worn in all my life, ever since i could tie my own boots laces. i have the Desert colour and i love them when i go out..a boot you can wear for more than 24 hours a day, i have worn these beautys for 48 hours in 1 go and they didnt hurt but my feet did smell abit when i took them off.
I have only just got them in the last 3 months, and i planning on buying more pairs when i can.
trust me..you cant go wrong with these boots..
you will love wearing them everyday.!!

I recently bought a pair of the black ones and i love them. they are totaly worth the money. the only problem i ran into them is i dont want to take them off! Very durable i have weak ankles and these really have saved me a lot of pain. Highly recomennded.

I bought a pair of Oakley SI boots when they first came out years ago and wore them since. In minus 40c weather to boiling heat, even walking on red hot coals in exotic places.

They were, in my opinion, the best footwear I'd ever owned. I wore them whenever I rode my motorcycle as well as they were really comfortable, durable and gave solid protection.

So I didn't think twice when I ordered these 8" versions in 09. Big Mistake.

When I got them I saw much of the boot is now made up of some plastic material, not leather. I didn't think this was a big problem as if Oakley abandoned the leather it would be for versatility not being cheap. I was wrong. I came back from an hours riding on my bike to see a massive hole melted through the boot. The fabric underneath the plastic crap was untouched... but the plastic that makes up half of these boots melted away from being near the bikes engine, despite the heat not even being enough to hurt or burn bare flesh or mark any other footwear or clothing.

I returned them to Oakley, who two months later told me I was SOL and wouldn't replace them for me.

I've learned my lesson, Oakley doesn't make quality, durable gear like they used to anymore.

Got the Summer/Hot weather ones. They're the second gens but seem pretty study. They're very light and have a nice tread pattern. I use 'em as a firefighter (they're night firefighting boots). They're good for inspections and station wear. Hope they hold up well.

Bought a brand spanking new pair of these boots for work. First wear, 4 eyelets break. Happened to a friend of mine as well. The older model is MUCH better, my colleagues give ti rave reviews. Newer model is terrible and would not buy them again.

Color: Black
Very sturdy shoe. Great engineering. Design is made to last. Comfortable wear. Walking with it is awesome. Running with it even better.

Color: Black
Perfect shoe. Had to go the size 13 as I couldn't get the 12.5, and 12 was just to small. They are not always true to size, as I have always in the past worn 12s. But I love them and wear them when ever I can.

I like these a lot better than the SI boots already. I feel very fast on my feet with these on. I've never been so satisfied running in a pair of shoes before. The sole will wear slightly quicker than regular oaks (non-vulcanized) but it's nothing to be too concerned about (I've had the boots for two years and I don't see an end in sight). Be careful during the waterproofing process otherwise you'll end up with gunk in the treads (the wp manufacturer said drench 'em so I did). It already seems to be taking care of itself though. I thought I would be more put off with the red triangle at the heel (I found the SI Boots without them) but I had no complaints when I saw them in person. Everyone seems confused about the sizing of the SI line. I always buy my o's in size twelve and these were no exception. They are supposed to be a tight fitting boot/shoe (of course not at the toes) ie: tactical footwear. Mine were tight in width at first but broke in after a day's use. I don't think I've ever owned a better pair of footwear.

Color: Black

I got a pair of Assaults in my size (size 9), but actually felt half a size too small. Comparing it to my mouldy old Asics, it's actually the same size but what I've noticed is that the Assault has a LOT of padding.

I hope I can get one sooner or later, 'cause even though I can't wear the Assaults I have now, they still look very very cool on top of the coffee table, heheh.

I was never really attracted to a $200 Oakley shoe - until they were finally reduced to the $35 range! After picking up a pair, I have to admit that these shoes are most definitely one of the most comfortable Oakley shoes I have worn (I'm up to about 20-25 now). Great comfort, cool looks, love that SI logo. Definitely go a size bigger, as with most Oakley footwear. My only complaint is that those darn laces are so long - I feel silly.

Color: Black

I really can't say anything bad at all about these. They are very durable, comfortable and the design is great. The design and detail of the sole alone is completely awesome. It was one of the major reasons I bought the shoe.

Highly recommended!

Color: night camo
All I can say is that this shoe has good traction and outstanding design. I can't say I am comfy with laces but it will pass

I work in the Tele Comm Industry and I am in and out of the field and office...non-stop. What amazes me is that these shoes never slow down, comfort out the a_ _ from day one. Often times when I get home I don't even go right to removing my shoes, they are downright- amazing! If and when they breakdown (had them for four months so far), I'll buy another pair. Worth the Two-Franklins easily. I do wish they had another color or two, whatever.

Color: Black
Really just cool shoes. They are functional for anything and as comfortable as you can get shoes. Another amazing Oakley shoe that demands attention.

Excellent Shoe, very comfortable. On slippery surfaces they were a bit touchy.

Ive had these for a million years and there sick.. they are worn out now, color fading from use but still comfy. only complaint is that i cant buy them anymore (NIGHT CAMO)

Having just recently recieved my SI Assualt Shoes and having had a pair before there are some subtle differences.
Of course the first thing you notice is the different tread pattern, I also noticed that the sole is more formed around the arch. The leather is still as good as before but i don't remeber the tounge being as short.
They definatley have a narrower profile to the old style especially around the toes.
The leading edge of the toes i find the rubber on the top to be much more ridged as too the rear around the ankle. I believe this would give your toes more protection. There are no SI logo's as well.
Is the new style better, I can;t really say as i was never able to wear my old ones as much as i wanted, as they were a little to small I now have a 12.5 which is the size i needed all along. This leads me to believe the sizing is the same.
Overall cosmetically they are very close, the tread pattern seems to be more practical for everyday use and as yet i have found no squeaking on any surface.
Hell you can't go wrong buying these, as you couldn't with the old ones.

Bought a pair and loved how comfortable it is. Almost makes you feel your floating on air. However, after a few months the seams started to rip apart from the rubber sole. And the hole became bigger and bigger. After a few more weeks the same thing happened to the other pair. I couldn't believe it as these were my new favorites...but I still don't use it that often for it to break easily as I have at least 12 pairs of Oakleys that I cycle around. Am so dissapointed with the build quality of this new version. I have the 1st Gen SI's in Night Camo and Black too. But this new design just came apart easily with very little help from me. Sooooo, dissappointed!

I've had the SI boots, 2 pair of SI shoes, 7 pair of Teeth / Teeth Low, and 4 or so pair of the more casual shoes. These SI Assault shoes are by far the worst. After just 2 weeks of wear, the seam between the rubber toe and heel is coming apart, and the eyelets spin. I usually get 8+ months of constant wear out of a pair. I also don't like how subdued the design is...they almost look like grandpa shoes from Payless. PLEASE BRING BACK THE TEETH MODELS OAKLEY!!!

Got these since it was so hot, in the summer, and I didn't want to use boots while working. These took a LOT less time to work in. The shoes have been holding up very well and don't squeak as much as the boots. I haven't used these enough to know if the tread will wear or the seams will tear. They do feel sturdy. Oily surfaces haven't been TOO much of a problem. The jury is still out on how they will perform in colder weather.

i got these shoes for PT here in Afghanistan and they would squeak when i first got them but now they're perfect. they're molded for my feet and i run 4 miles a day with them. when i gave them a break for a week and put on my regular running shoes, i felt so much lighter, these are good for training. i love them and would recommend them.

The 2.0 shoe is almost perfect. Slippery surfaces were no problem for this shoe. I wear mine abord ship and I am on my feet 10-12 hours per day and they have performed well.

I was anoyed that they had narrowed the toe from the 1.0's, I hoep the 3.0s go back tot he wide toe area to perfect this shoe.

Extremely comfortable, looks good with any casual gear, whether jeans or utiliy

Color: Black/White

I got these a month ago. Very comfortable and light weight. If you didn't know, there is a hidden pocket camoflaged on the right shoe on the left side.

Best shoes I've ever owned, and I'm trying to track down another pair right now! They are good for just about everything.

I'm very much loving my SILK. A far from simple, low proflie piece of footwear that looks great with shorts or jeans. Comfortable enough for all day wear and long periods on your feet. Highly recommneded ig you're looking for a nice shoe that's not overly industrial or too sneaker like.

So comfortable & a really unmistakably Oakley shoe. Built rock solid. Great color combos too plus, how cool is it to get a guitar pick inside your shoe!!

Laced or laceless, the Silk is a sweet new addition to the o shoe line. With the "blend into the croud" sneaker design of the past couple of years, the silk is a great standout. I like the strap/stiching design on the new lineup.

Just as with the laceless design, these shoes are my all-time favorite. Although the laceless design is a bit more convenient, the standard S.I.L.K. is just as light and comfortable as well as great-looking. Laceless or not, both versions have their own unique look and you can't go wrong with almost any color they come in. Try to find a pair because you will love them - believe me.

best selling shoe since the beginning of oakley shoes in my store
and i've started with the shoe one !!

Color: White/Black

These shoes are the business - very comfy and look amazing. As always O make them extra special by adding the guitar plectrum hidden in one of the shoes as a bonus. Great shoes, nice to see the move to laceless once more.

Black/White
Very cool pair of shoes. Super comfortable and well suited for being on your feet all day. Only complaint is the threads (I guess thats what they are) that hold it all together seem to start to fray a little over time. Not a big deal but it makes the black stipes look fuzzy. Still a great pair of shoes.

Color: Charcoal / Black
My favorit. Awesome look and very comfy.

Color: Black/Black

brilliant pair of shoes! the contrast panels look great and so does the printed insoles. the shoes themselves are lightweight and super confortable. i originally had reservations about the laceless design but they feel secure and fit great. another winner by Oakley.

Like Sparra "These shoes are the business" and they are all business, so light and comfortable.

A good fit is important with these shoes you may have to go up or down a half size so that they fit right but it’s worth it.

The only drawback is during the break in period, if they are worn for a while you can feel them squeezing your feet on instep.

I have them in 5 different colors but I love the tan ones better. I bought an extra pair of it incase one got messed up. comfy and easy to put on

My all-time favorite shoe - and not just of Oakley shoes, but of any brand shoe. They are so light and comfortable as well as great-looking in almost any color they come in. If you can find a pair in your size, pick it up - you won't regret it.

I got the all white ones. The build is high quality(no excess glue or bad stitches)and the leather is also of high quality, they were soft right out of the box and didnt require much breaking in. These also had the little stash on the side with the guitar pick in it. I would say they run 1/2 size big so try before you buy. All in all a very good shoe I would definetly buy them again

I have the Black/Charcoal and light grey colorways. Like icehawk said very good shoes right of the box, made out of high quality materials.

My foot isn't to narrow, and it isn't to wide, my true size worked perfect for me.

Best sneakers I've ever owned the leather/swede combo makes this good for casual and semi-casual wear.

Best shoes ive ever owned. Super Comfortable. They look great with Everything. Great quality. Ive ebeen wearing mine almost every day for the last year and barely and signs of wear. I wish i could still find a few more pairs. Plus the secret pocket with guitar pick is pretty cool. The Light Grey is a really nice color, not too light and not too dark.

Great for a walk out in the outdoors. Comfy as can be.

First off, I've noticed Oakley's boots run a little big. I usually wear a size 14 but after trying on a size 13 assault boot at the vault store locally that's what I ordered from vault online. I am assuming that Oakley is discontinuing this model and its a shame. These boots have an abundant amount of leather. The very top and part of the tongue are some nylon material that lets your foot breathe. The leather spans the whole boot where it meets the sole. The boot has a rear "tongue" which makes it EXTREMELY comfortable. This boot almost seems like a hybrid of boot and athletic shoe. The tread pattern is extremely aggressive and grippy. The toe area has a re-enforced rubber cap which is just another added plus. Overall these boots are fantastic!

As of 2/22/2013 they are available on Oakley Vault for 65.00 which is a STEAL for this quality boot.

Oakley the most comfortable boots I've ever used, but it is very tough after a while of use it rips inside and outside. Design not very optimistic, compared with S.I boots.

I just got these from the vault. They're very comfortable and even keep your feet warm in the cooler months (haven't tried them in winter). I love the aggressive treadpattern. They are taking a short bit to work in (around the ankle) but otherwise these are great.

The watch is great except that it shows the numbers. I love the outside shape of the watch

Frame: Black
Face: Stealth

A very sweet watch. After wearing a Time Bomb, GMT and Blade over the years, it just seems so wierd to strap on just a beefy watch band and have it be so light. Very comfortable, a great look. I love the metal/leather look, very well incorporated.
It was also mentioned that the face could be switched out with a GMT or Judge face ... awesome versatility!

Band: Black Leather
Casing/Face: Stealth

I usually favor a metal band over a leather band. But the fact that this leather band is thick and wide, plus it's versatile with the sheath being removable, makes it a nice choice for Oakley's first leather band watch release. The military-esque face and the spinal/bone like sides of the casing definitely gives it more of an aggressive feel than most of the leather cuff/band watches that I have seen.

I have them all but the brown/ivy which i plan to get soon and i really dig them. its a nice change to wear the leather cuff.

Frame: Honed
Face: Olive Green
Awesome watch, just got it today. I have a huge ass wrist, probably 8 1/4", I know, huge, the watch is big enough,with room to spare, that on its own, is a major reason for purchase.
Beauty, the Olive comes off amazing in casual wear. Lightweight, yet solid. Excellent Watch. Only down side, if you have a smaller wrist, and every day you need to use one of the slots down the line of the band, you will probably have a wrinkle effect all the way up to that spot on the leather. this isnt the biggest deal, cause for the most part, its on the underside. Has a very strong Army Look

Frame: Black Leather
Face: Stealth Black

i guess i was having higher expectations for the Saddleback, after how happy i've been with all my other Oakley watches. this one isn't as nicely executed as, say... the Judge, GMT, or even a Detonator. the watch face is nice enough, it's inspired by Army Field watches and it looks very nice, so does the overall casing shape (nice agressive bumps on the sides), but the leather seems subpar. i was expecting a nice, shiny leather; either like smooth naked cowhide or pebbled grain cowhide. instead, it looks like cheaper, dull looking, wrinked nubuck leather. however, the leather is nice and thick, and should be sturdy enough for constant use. leather also molds nicely as one uses it, so it will form to your wrist shape. also, the Saddleback is noticibly lighter than a Blade or a GMT... maybe its the lack of a metal band. the leather cuff is really comfortable to wear, and looks wide and beefy. nice change from wearing metal or unobtanium bands all the time.

Case: Honed
Face: White

This watch is suprisingly comfortable. I didn't think I'd actually like the cuff; thought about replacing it before I received it. The way it wraps around your wrist is great. I haven't worn leather in years. Nice thickness on the band. The overall design is not screaming, but still commanding. Now, even more than then, you can get these cheap. Completely worth the try from this skeptic.

I have nothing against the Saddleback, but I just can't get into it. I have always been into metal bracelets, so that might have a lot to do with it. The wide leather band, while giving the Saddleback a distinct look, does detract from the aggressive look that I have come to associate with Oakley watches. It's a little too tame for my tastes. The dial is quite basic. Overall, I think it has its place in the lineup, but just doesn't scream Oakley - which may be what some people like about it.

My first Oakley watch. It's a great introduction to watches. You can find them fairly cheap. I paid $60. The leather is much higher quality than any other band that I've seen. It gets lots of compliments when I wear it.

I can tell you that for the price you cant get a better watch. Yeah it has a leather band on it, but thats one of the things that cathes peoples eye. Most people ask me all about it. I have to say, I didnt think it was gonna be as cool as it is

got plenty of compliments already. True to fit so don't gain weight. Only thing stopping this jacket from getting a full 5 is because there is no significate Oakley indicator and the zipper shows the YKK on it.Cmon! Also weird about this is because the black is almost like a dark brown. I don't see the black in it at all

tried on a Brown version at the Oakley Store a few times and i have to say it fits and drapes very well. the leather isn't a thick grade like on Leather Motorcycle jackets, but is more substantial than thin fashion leather. the styling of the jacket is very nice, looks like it was inspired by Army Field jackets with collar, two chest patch pockets and two slash handwarmer pocket. however, Oakley adds industrial looking rivets and hardware. what i don't like about the jacket is the graphics intensive back panel, hopefully the Black leather version will make the graphics more subtle.

I was really looking forward to an oakley leather jacket.
This is a Mid weight leather, distressed to look used.
Brown rather than black
As said no descernable Oakley icons,
though inside there are skulls faintly embossed on the lining and the inner rivets have o stamps.It has some nice touches.
Not sure about D rings flapping about though, But this jacket will look better and better with age and wear.

An awesome jacket. But then again I've only had one other leather jacket before this one. I think for this jacket they really did mainly focus just on aesthetics. It's not really a technical piece of outerwear at all. The worn/distressed leather does make the jacket look more dark brown in color. A fairly heavy jacket with true to fit sizing. The graphics on back are noticeable but subtle and the "D" rings on the bottom/waist in the back definitely help give it an industrial touch.

Love this jacket. Got it at an O store when they were on clearance. The only thing I'm not happy with is that they did not make more. It is a really cool and unique Oakley article that it makes all the guys at the store jelous. It is a very older style I believe, and I'd like to know more about it, like a release date and MSRP and how many they made. It has a really nice true fit. High quality leather with a very rugged look. I always get looks with this jacket. I would love to submit pics but I couldn't find how to do so.

Stellar work there everyone. I'll keep on raeding.

The RX 12 piece comes with a special RX metal vault bigger than your normal X-metal metal vault case. It opens up like the metal vault and contains multi-colored lenses standing upright in the special cutout foam. With 12 different colors, it's literally eye candy for the Oakley fans!

I have several of these and they are very useful. I hang most of my sandals and bring it out as a nice display. I also use it to hang some backpack and I also hang one on my rear view mirrow. Really cool stuff

Color: black

Not to follow trends, but this single strap bag is excellent. I treat mine as a brief case (or purse) and use it on a daily basis. It's compartments are great and are hidden all over the bag. In the straps, inside, and the back. It has an MP3 Player pocket inside that works wonders (slightly too large for the iPod) and is perfect for larger players. Comfortable and easy to get on and off. I have had no problems with the buckles, straps or zipper pulls. The only one little problem I had is with the rubber handle. It has started to fray were it is stitched to the bag. I caught the first side a year into ownership and dabbed some superglue on the frays and the same for the other side just this past spring. It made a great fix. This bag is excellent for every day use, day trips, the beach, biking and the like. I wouldn't recommend it for school books though and it can't hold a laptop. Maybe the 12" iBook.

Color: black

I love Oakley products. In fact, I own stock. So it's no surprise that I looked to see what Big "O had to offer by way of an everyday work or fun bag. I often need to bring documents, small packages, electronics, to and from work. The Sandbag is the perfect size. It has more compartments than you can throw a stick at. I used to have a Creative Zen mp3 player. This was before everyone tried to get their players iPod size. There is an internal pocket that holds the player perfectly. It's nice and padded. There are two holes in the bag for you to pass cables through. So you can be walking and listening to music, without all the cables getting tangled up.

There are mesh pockets, zippers, Velcro, pen slot, etc. I use every compartment for some sort of little knick knack. I have contact solution, lip balm, batteries, pen, my cell phone, etc.

On the shoulder strap there are shotgun shell loops. If that is not bad ass, I am not sure what is.

Color: red

Women have their handbag. I've got my Sandbag.

My workmates bought me this bag (along with an x-metal vault for my Juliet's) for my 21st present. I was blown away by the price ($198 Australian!!!) but also by the amount of features they managed to fit on what is essentially a backpack.

It has so many buckles and straps I don't know what half this shit does. I swear to god Oakley have put some stuff on here for practical use and other stuff just to look cool. What are those two plastic buckles for on the side of the bag? The shotgun cartridge holders? Talk about thinking outside the square.

This bag is the most awesome backpack I have ever seen. It has pockets and features that make my life a whole lot easier. I use this bag for anything, from going to uni, work, the beach or riding my bike. It has a spot for my iPod, my pen, my beach towel (the straps on the bottom. Just roll up your towel and strap it in), my water bottle and my loose change.

I love this bag because it crossed practicality with cutting edge, kick ass design.

Oakley hits a home run.

Color:Black
I actually paid retail for this bec it was amazing looking. Got lots of complements whereever I go. Nice cellphone holder. I travelled with this bag all over the world and it survived

Color:
Gotta love it
hidden pocket on inside of back works great for quick magazine compartment, and i do have to discharges shotgun shells in the first two holes...a 10g and 12g. if you accompany it with one of those cd or mpw pleyers that has a pen control it works great so you dont have to mess around with going inside to change the song. the only thing i can say is that the inside cd player pocket is placed to that if you have books of something hard inside the cd player might be getting pushed in half... but if you have this bag you shouldnt be putting only a cd player in it ...

Color: black

of course BLACK! all my bags are black :o))
this is the perfect size if you don´t have to much stuff which you must carry arround. with all the small pockets inside and outside you could store what ever you like in separate areas... a cellphone bag is included and a place for the walkman or ipod you will found easily. i like to wear it if i drive my bicycle because this modell is not to heavy.
i love it!!!!! everybody who´s gets one will be happy like me :o)))

Color: Black
Great bag have had it for about 9 months only problem is that the velcro has worn off and the bag tended to undo itself as i was walking with it strapped on. Fixed that problem by going to the local shoe maker and having snap buttons placed on the strap to prevent it from coming undone. Go to my collection to see a picture of it.

This has been a great bag for the last 3 years in college. Small loads only (1 bigger textbook + Notebook) Lots of comments if only by idiots but I dig it's appearance. Good condition except for the netting has started to fray anywhere it was used on the bag. The bag seems to still be very functional (I'm curious when the zipper is going to go on the main compartment). I still alternate this out along with my Icon and AP Pack as my load dictates. As long as it's only used for smaller loads I'd give this bag a 5/5.

Color:Black

A supa' sling bag! Not very large main compartment, so don't plan on packing too much. But for your basic carry-around, you couldn't ask for anything nicer. Cell-phone holder and grippy adjustable strap are top benefits! My brother also uses one for riding around on his Ducati ... so maybe some added functionality for those riders out there.

Amazing bag for urban use. Loaded with features you will all use for your everyday gear and gadgets. Fantastic for commuting. The sling makes for moving through crowds in the mall and the train easier than with a backpack. What impresses me most about this bag is that you could access all compartments while slinged on your back. Stow documents and magazines on the move in the back compartment and pull out your Starbucks mug at the same time from the bottle holder while answering a call from your mobile. That kind of convenience is just not possible for a regular pack. Even the zippers could be closed with one hand. Although it could use lockble zipper pulls for peace of mind against pick pockets on those rush hour commutes. It really looks cool for a messenger bag. Oakley's industrial design people could really take something otherwise mediocre to another level.

Color: Black
Sweet bag. It's comfortable and holds books well. Plenty of pockets for a smaller bag. The cell phone case with it definately adds to the value.

Definately a nice bag. Excellent price point. Great for a quick trip to the gym. It won't hold too many books, but it's great if you only have a book or two to carry and don't want to lug around your giant Kitchen Sink for such a small payload.

Greetings, my first review. I don't see a listing for a Sandbag 2.0 so I figure I'll put it here. I originally purchased the Sandbag 2.0 because of the flexibility in carrying. The single strap unzips and can be repositioned to become shoulder straps. Further, you can adjust the straps' anchor points to configure it as a left shoulder bag , right shoulder bag, or backpack.

There are a ton of pockets and I fit my 15" Gateway Tablet PC with room to spare. I crammed this bag with the laptop, external harddrive, web cam, cables, headphones, external mouse, files, folders, and Ipod and there was still room.

Utility and style wise I would rate 5 out of 5.

My two complaints would be the lower strap mounting system. Each strap has a clip that slides on to a channel on the bag. These tend to slip off the channel. My laptop has come crashing down more than once. However, due to the excellent padding, It has not been damaged. #2. Even though the brochure shows that the bag comes with a traditional shoulder strap and advertising for the bag trumpest "carry this four way", a traditional should strap is NOT included and you cannot buy one from Oakley. I've had these bags (one black, one tiger camo) since the end of Jan and I've been fighting it out with Oakley on this ever since.

All in all a great bag. It retails around $110.00. Overall, I would give it 4/5.

Red

One of the best backpacks I have ever owned. Get compliments on it all the time and it was out there way before shoulder/sling packs became En Vogue. Suited for almost all my endeavors be it a hike in Yosemite or grabbing a six-pack at the beer store. I liked it in particular when on my motorcycle since I could access it while driving. Had I the time back I'd have bought a second one for when and if my first wears out, although I don't know if will ever wear out the first one, lol.

I'm considering using the inner padded pocket that seems to be usually used for an mp3 holder, as water-bladder holder. The hole in the side of the bag that would seem to be for earphones could easily be used as hose port. Furthermore, the 'shotgun shell' holders will be used as a mouthpiece holder (various heights setting available). My only concern is that the height of the bag will require a smaller than usual water-bladder. Has anyone utilized their Sandbag this way?

I've been using this sling a solid seven years, and it's still holding up nicely.

It's a beautiful color. I like the differing degrees of opacity with the deep blue color. My wife has it on her Scripts, and it looks best in bright light, so that the reflection off the frame changes with movement. I wish this color was also in a non-acetate frame.

This lens looks great from the outside. It has a strong iridium coating and a nice blue colour. Looking though it the lens has a slight rose tint which is not what you expect but it's still very pleasant. One of my favourite lenses for sure.

Beautiful lenses, if you don't need extra protection in bright sunlight.
Great to look at, they are even better to look through, infact they're not really neutral but slightly contrast lenses, with a very light rosy hue.
I wish they only had a little bit less transmission, then they would be perfect.

Boring boring boring, my brother has these and although they are his back up wisdoms i dont know why he chose such a lame colour, when wisdoms come in some fookin awesome colours.

Color: Ivy

Nice long-sleeve polo-style shirt that is great for business-casual work attire. The fabric is very soft, and unlike most polo shirts, the collar is made from the same fabric as the rest of the shirt. Raglan sleeves with contrast colored piping add a little zing to the otherwise conservative styling. The embroidered icon on the right sleeve near the cuff is a neat little touch. I wish the store had more colors... I would have picked up at least one more.

Frame: Polished Black
Lens: 00 Polarized

Been wearing Oakleys fro a long time. After wearing my old frames for years to the point that I was just bored of them. I decided to go with a new model. I already own the Spike Titanium in Matte Black for more casual not so sunny days. But I wanted something a bit meaner and sportier looking. The scalpels are exactly what I needed and wanted. I'm a tall guy at 6'3" with an average sized head and they fit me wonderfully.

I'm not sure if it'd due to the flexibility of the O-matter and the general design of the frame, but they also fit my brother perfectly and he has a completely differently shaped head than I do, soo I understand completely where "Wookieman" is coming from in his review. This is just a superbly designed frame, very durable. The rubber on the nose and the ear socks make damn sure these glasses don't budge once their on your face.

I also fully agree with "XyesterdayX" about the greatness of the 00 Polarized lenses. Really worth the extra few bucks if you were already going to spring for the standard polarized lenses. Huge difference for not a huge price.

My one complaint which isnt really a complaint more of a warning, is that for me they took a day of wearing to get used to. My Oakley spikes and Fives had much flatter lenses, where the scalpels area bit more concave, I found the change in lens shape a bit off putting at first. But after a few hours of walking in them I don't notice it anymore. Just a warning to anyone who buys these in case you have the same problem I did it will likely not bother you after your first day wearing them.

Frame: Polished Black (Ducati)
Lens: Black Iridium

After finally having the opportunity to experience these glasses incarnate I am a bit disappointed. Although not quite as large as expected, the Scalpel still fared too big for my face, being slightly larger than the New Straight Jacket IIs. While the earstems were certainly noteworthy for their aesthetics (including both the new unobtainium layout as well as the placement of the icon), the real design concern involved the brow (above the orbitals and nosebridge). The "angled" facet (or "horizontal line") over the lenses/nosebridge somehow seemed to make this pair appear "cheap". The earstems also seemed a bit thin and delicate, especially compared to most other Oakleys (i.e., Straight Jacket II, Monster Dog, Flak Jacket, etc.). The positive? Lightweight shades with a new design and overall good coverage for larger faces. Let's hope Oakley can improve on this design for their next endeavor...

The thin eartems are made out of the same material that flak jackets are, so they're not delicate at all. you can literally bend them however you want and they will spring back into shape.

Frame: White Chrome
Lens: Ice Iridium Polarized

Simply put this is a big frame for big men. Although it may not appear so at first glance the scalpel almost seems like an upgrade to the monster dog. It is big and has a lot of frame, but still maintains a streamlined look. I'm not a small guy I'm about 5'10'' 200 lbs. with a medium large head and I can barely pull these off. While the Monster Dog, Hijinx, and Oil Rig are all big, the shape and contour of this frame make them big in a different way that I can't really explain without showing you. For some reason the scale and contour of this frame looks better on big tall guys with big round heads. These are sharp (no pun intended) but try before you buy.

The fit is very comfortable and the lens coverage is excellent. The addition of ear socks makes the fit that much more secure. The frame feels very durable. The wrap of the lens is nice. You don't much frame when checking blind spots and very little light leaks in from the sides and bottom.

The styling is a new direction for Oakley. The stylized hinges, tilted icon, and new style of earsocks make these look like nothing else. They have some great color combos. The grey with positive red is awesome, but I went with the white chrome and ice because it is polarized.

This is overall a solid frame. I took off points because this frame is not very versatile. The size, shape, and contours make it very hard to pull off.

Frame: Dark Grey
Lens: Red Iridium

Fits and wraps very nicely. The only thing you need to worry about is if youre comfortable enough wearing it.I would say if your confident enough to wear not minding the way it yells "oakley!", then by all means go for it. I'm not a big dude but Ive worn other oakleys in the past and by far this has been one of the best when it comes to size/fit factor. I like the new "O" look as well as the cool, modern & sleek design. Its also a good thing Oakley has managed to cut the price down for the Ruby or Red Iridium lenses. I only wish Oakley would come up with replacement lenses. I'm a Filipino and I think the standard fit just suits me well instead of the Asian Fit.

Frame: Polished Black
Lens: OO Black Iridium Polarized

I am a Straight Jacket (2007 model) fan and a Jawbone fan, so the Scalpel fits right in. Think of this frame as a hybrid of the two. Smaller fit like the Straight, but larger/better lens coverage like a Jawbone! It can definitely fit some heads strangely, given it has a slightly wider temple.
The main reason for this review is the OO Polarized lens. If you have the chance... BUY IT!!! Amazing lens family! As a base crossing both G40 and Grey, it gives a very natural and comfortable feel. The slight increase in contrast is like no other (my former favorite lens being a VR28 Black). This lens actually feels clearer than a naked eye! My best comparison is for someone in need of Rx glasses putting on their glasses for the first time. Everything gets clearer, but still neutral/natural on the eye.

Frame: Dark Grey
Lens: Red Iridium
Fantastic lenses, this is my first oakley, when I went to the store I tried the half jacket but they were too small for my head so I put this on and felt the enormous diference, they are very comfortable. I think theres a oakley for every head, you just have to find yourself. I use them to play tennis and the are the best lenses I have ever had

This is one of Oakley's most underrated post-JJ (Lux) design (along with it's larger, lifestyle cousin the Ten) in large part because they design is daring and unusually Mad Scientist for the era. Luxley basically took this model and made it generic and boring a couple years later with the Valve so the run for this was limited and they are hard to find now 3-4 years post discontinuance. I've owned 3 of the best colorways- the Max Fear, Dark Grey +Red and White Chrome Ice (the last of which was BNIB for just over original retail- a steal considering were these a 2015 release the price wouldn't be $125 but more like $225).

Fit is near perfect with secure three point fit that when combined with rubber would allow this pair to be worn for pretty much any activity should you wish including bicycling. I disagree that this is a large frame however- I'm 6 foot 5, 230 lbs with an athletic build and a lean, angular face and I've found the frame borders on almost being too small (it's probably 10-15% smaller in orbital footprint than the Jawbone which is about as near to a perfect 1-1 fit for my face as will likely ever be found)- I find on face the frame actually looks and fits smaller than pictures might suggest but on the plus there's little to know cheekbone touch or resting and ventilation is excellent.

While the design is definitely less generic than its contemporaries I also disagree with other reviewers that this is even remotely a hard look to pull off- or maybe I'm just really used to boundary pushing designs like Juliets, Oil Rigs etc. because wearing these I don't really feel I stand out due to them.

Overall this design gets a 5 star rating vs. a 4 star as much because of what followed it as anything- it IS a well rounded pair that is more unique looking, well designed and versatile....but it's even more those things when put up against the Made in China near milk jug plastic "O-Matter" models that followed it. If you can get a pair for under $150 in good or excellent condition I advise picking one up.

I like the big lens and it is confortable. Rubber stalk destroyed in 2 years

Frame: White Chrome
Lens: Ice Iridium Polarized
I really like the sunglasses they block out a lot of light and glare. They stay on your face good. I definitely would reccomend them to anyone!

Frame:Scalpel Ducati Edition
Lens:Black Iridium

Bought a pair of these a few days ago. First pair of Oakleys I've ever owned. Well not disappointed with my purchase. They are really light and have a good feeling of grip overall thanks to the rubber layer around the nose and ear areas of the frame. Although plastic, feel quite durable. The lenses are great thankfully and due to the frame size do an exellent job of blocking all light from seeping in through the sides. All in all really love em. A good buy for those who don't like metallic frames like myself.

Frame: Chrome & FMJ+
Lens: Black & G30
I don't own these, but I borrow them from time to time. They have since been replaced by the Valve line, which is a shame, as these glasses are very nice. They cost a little more, but have solid stainless steel hinges and a tight grip. The angles are also much more accented for a sleeker look. They won't fit in a standard case however, and require ones that will fit the X-Metals (excluding Penny's).

Update: Finally got the FMJ+/G30 one for myself. Definitely a nice collection piece. Now to get the Red and Blue ones.

Frame:ALL
Lens:ALL

Im really annoyed, cos these glasses look amazing but they are way too small for my big head/face and they look really dumb when I wear them.
they come in some amazing colour combos, its just a big shame they havent made an XL version like other oakley models.
So if you have a big head face and are lookin for these on ebay I suggest you try before you buy.

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24k Iridium

I wanted a pair once, but never bought one because they didn't fit me very well, sitting too high on my face. They look very cool, though now I would say that I prefer the look of the Valve, perhaps beause they're slightly more angular.

Frame: Midnight
Lens: Fire
Sweet style. These are some great true design oakley's. A definate must have for the collection, now I just have to get another pair!

Frame:Butterscotch
Lens:24K Gold Iridium

Same comments as before, look amazing but dont feel to nice.
i just had to get these for the awsome colour combo.
lens and frame colour in perfect harmony.

Frame: Midnight
Lens: Fire Iridium

Outside of their X-Metal line, you'd be hard pressed to find any frame that defines Oakley more than the Scars. The orbitals are artfully shaped while providing good coverage. The earstems have an aggressive batwing look and despite looking like they could slice your ears off, they're quite comfortable. The metal lugs aren't really functional but add a touch of brightwork that really stand out on the darker frames.

And despite the lenses being on the smaller side, they fit my big head quite well, since the earstem lugs are molded so that they're almost like Hammer stems. Their shape makes them look good on me but I've seen other wear these so they're almost a one-size-fits-all frame. The only nitpick is that they close with the Icon sticking out a little bit so if you like to hang your Oakleys on your shirt when you're indoors, they hang a little awkwardly. A very minor point.

It's too bad they're out of production.

Frame: Platinum
Lens: VR28 Black Iridium

Very nice design. Feels very sturdy and strong for not being an x-metal. Eye coverage is excellent and the metal near the hinges is a very nice add to the design. I wish the lenses could be bigger though.

Frame: FMJ red
Lens: Black iridium

the desgine of these glasses is great. they have diffrent line that makup the arms and the orbital but they are not so diffrent that they look strange.

the shape of the orbitals is diffrent then most and i takes a little to get use to. the lower out sxide corner of the orbitals angle up more then usuall and so light nad movement can be seen under this when you are wearing them. it is not enought to cause problems as per say but you do find your self distracted for the first little while untill you are use to it.

the frame color is cool (FMJ red) but it seams to be a little more sensitive to scraching and once it is scrached there is a silver tint to the area.

the arms are good with the diffrent shape and look. but i have found that having a big head and because the glasses are older and don't have the new flexabilty like the new tecnology the arms tend to press tightly to the side of my head and after i while i have to take them off.

all in all i still love the glasses and if and enjoy whering them.

Q

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24K Iridium

The Scar was Oakley's first eyewear comprised of both O-matter and X-Metal, offering a number of unique features. Utilizing CAD engineering, the glasses featured innovative earstems which almost appeared to be "fin-like", and were very comfortable. The lens shape was also exclusive, yet still offered adequate coverage. The Butterscotch/24K color combo was perhaps the most popular of the line, and remains one of my personal favorites today. A bit bulky, these shades would probably be best suited for those with medium to larger craniums. Apparently they didn't sell well at retail, however, resulting in a short-lived product lifecycle.

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24K
A timeless piece, will be in style for a long time. Very smooth and comfortable with a sweet color combo.

Frame: Electric Blue
Lens: Ice
When this first came out, it's like I gotta have it. I color combp I got is the best color combo for this model. Unfortunately, they are discountinuing the model. Well, at least the Valve, Plate, evolved from this radical design

Frame: Electric Blue
Lens: Ice Iridium

I have been wanting a pair of these for a while and finally found a pair. They are very comfortable, but where the frame angles up from the bottom of the lens towards the earstem allows for a little to much light than I usually like. This isn't a design flaw in the glasses, but a just a minor inconvienence. Overall I still really like these.

Frame: butterscotch
Lens: 24k
These are badassss looking sun-g's! And what a cool name! Pointed earstems with no unobtainium works great for someone with long hair.

Frame: Persimmon
Lens: Black Iridium

One of my first pair of O-matter frames. I love the look and design. I was really intrigued by the X-metal lugs and that feature was one of the selling points for me. The Persimmon frame color is sweet!! One of my favorites.

Frame: FMJ+
Lens: G30

Yet another Oakley that I wasn't sure I liked at first, but grew on me after the 3rd or 4th try. Since they are discontinued, I figured I should get a pair before they all disappear. The styling of these glasses is superb. I like the scalloped bat-wing look. The tall earstems are very unique and provide a fairly confortable grip even though they do not have Unobtainium. The X-Metal earstem lugs with integrated icons are cool.

The hinges are in a strange location behind the icon, which makes them look neat even when folded. However, the frames are quite wide and deep when folded, so as Dann said, you need an X-Metal case or Medium Soft Vault for these.

I would have given these a 5, but I figured with the size of the frame (fairly tall lenses), the nosebombs could have been bigger than just little slivers of Unobtainium. Better than nothing, though.

FMJ+ is a pretty ho-hum satin silver, but I really got this pair for the G30 lenses. The pinkinsh tint is not too dark and great for varying light. Like LEX said, Scars were available in some of the nicest color combinations Oakley ever tried.

Frame: black
Lens: 24K

i took out the original black lens , and swapped it for the 24K lens , and now it has an unique look. nice design, and some really nice p.o.p. material made by oakley

Frame: Black Chrome
Lens: Black Iridium

I have a love/hate relationship with these glasses. The look is awesome. But they let in a lot of light because of the frame structure. My only complaint is that the metal piece inside the hinge has as tendency to work its way out. You have to just push it back in from time to time. No biggie. All-in-all a nice shade...just wish it would have a little more eye coverage!

Frame: Electric Blue
Lens: Ice

The electric blue frame is Mesmerising and beyond cool!
One of the more eye-catching of Oakley models.
Had the platinum/VR28 one but sold it off in favour of this slick combination.
The only Oakley frame that I took time to admire at different light angles.
It's a seductive pair. My only beef is that it's not exactly catered to larger faces.

Frame:FMJ Red
Lens:Black Iridium

Spectacular frame colour and i love the shape of these. only reason i got them is for the collection cos sadly i cant wear these.
the stock pic really doesnt do this colour justice, once the light hits it, wow

Frame:Persimmon
Lens:Black Iridium

I DONT like the feel of scars but i love the look so im getting 2 pairs for the collection. these ones and the butterscotch/24k
they remind me of a more chunky topcoat shape.

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24K Gold

I look so wicked in these things. I wear these on my angry days - the days I shout profanity at people who annoy me, drive fast, and throw the finger. They are awesome. The 24K is loud and doesn't make everything yellow like Gold Iridium does. Think of these as the yellow Viper of the sunglasses world - "Look at me, I'm an attention whore!" But I had to take a star away because they hurt the top of my ears if I wear them for a few hours.

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24k

I got these when they first came out. The styling and fit of the eyewear is great! The color is what sort of killed me. I ended up not being a big fan of the butterscotch and persimmon colors. But when they busted out the FMJ colors later on, I thought those were much improved. A great pair of shades.

Frame: Midnight
Lens: Fire Iridium
It is such shame that these glasses are on the way out. They were kinda revolutionary in styling, as they were the first of their kind. I love the big, blade-looking earstems and the X-Metal lugs were a very cool addition. The Valves should have at least carried these over. I also loved the mechanical cam inside the earstem. It kept the stem tight, whether it was open or folded. I wish I never would have sold these! I guess we'll always have Plate and Valve, but it just won't be the same.

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24K

I... LOVE... this... GLASS! I usually display it more than wear it, but when I do wear it out, I always get looks. The hinge is incredible and just plain spiffy! Although I must say, I gave it a four because too much sun gets in my eyes, I whine a lot I know, but it does hurt on a bright day!

Frame:Midnight
Lens: Fire Iridium

great great great
love the design fits great light weight no sun sneaks in and the lenses cast a yellow hue on everything!

Frame: FMJ+
Lens: G30
The price has really dropped on the Scars lately online. I was surprised how cheap I was able to pick this pair up for. I have always like the agressive styling of the Scar, but just didn't feel they were very practical. Now that I own them, I am very glad I got past the practicality issue. They are extreme and strike a deep cord in me. The G30 lens has always been underrated in my opinion. Overall, this combo is subtle in it's color, but extreme in its style.

Frame: Platinum
Lens: VR28 Black Iridium

I love the agressive look, style says Oakley all over it. The eye coverage is awesome and it's very comfortable, it's not compressing the side of my head. Thanks to Jumpman73 for picking it up for me!

Frame: FMJ Red
Lens: Black Iridium

Very cool design. Really sturdy especially the metal piece on here. I'm not a big fan of the FMJ red but its still a unique and bold color. The fit of these are good on a big head like mine, but I would prefer larger orbitals.

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24K Gold Iridium

I really like the butterscotch color and I am in love with the 24K lens, but I was not a very big fan of this color scheme. The Scars are really nicely designed. They have out there earstems but fairly conservative orbitals. They are also lightweight and offer great coverage. I think its the silver on the frames that kill it for me. I just didn't think these were as appealing as some of the other color schemes.

Frame: elec.blue
Lens: ice

colour is outstanding, fit is near perfect, feel is also near perfect, look is very unique ; like oakleys are intended

Frame: Midnight
Lens: Fire Iridium
Frame:FMJ+
Lens: Black Iridium

nice shades for me it was the begin of a wonderful era in oakley. scar-valve other very awsome glasses.

love the sharp look,

you will get noticed with the midnight.

Frame: Electric Blue
Lens: Ice Iridium
I love the color! I think that it's the best color of all the Scars. Eye coverage is awesome, comfortable and so light weight. As I mentioned on my review of the platinums, I like the aggressive look, even more with this color combo.

Frame: Black
Lens: Black Iridium

First pair, so review may be a bit skewed coming from non-Oakleys.
I like them :) There are a few impracticalities, but there is a lot to like. I don't like the thick bottom edge. I didn't mind at first, but when driving, it blocks your over-the-shoulder blind-spot check in a big way. I think they sit a little high for me as well, but I'm not sure on that yet. The nosebombs feel a bit like they're ready to fall off.

What to like? Lots. The fit is tight, the metal hinge section is nice & gives me confidence it will not fall apart. I love the style with the shape of the orbital and the swoop of the earstems. They sit forward enough so that they're secure on my nose, but my lashes don't touch.

I'm still not sure about the lens. They seem middle of the line for light, providing decent protection in full sun, and are a bit hindering indoors. Could be me though.

An awesome set to start off a collection (yes I wear them).

Frame: Persimmon
Lens: Black

After recently acquiring this color combo, I feel compelled to write a quick review. As aformentioned, the Scar frame is a bit bulky but still comfortable, thanks in part to the unobtainium nosepieces. This frame color, however, is amazing in its own right: it almost appears to be "lit" from the inside while wearing it - probably due to the contrast of the persimmon frame against the black iridium lenses. Another point to consider is that after recently trying these on, lens coverage seems to be a bit limited at the periphery. Four skulls overall.

Frame: Electric blue
Lens: Ice Iridium

This is such a beautiful color combination. Oakley wasnt kidding when they named it Electric Blue. Its very bold and bright. The ice is a nice touch, and the chrome icons blend perfectly with the blue frame. They are a little wide for my face but with such a sleek wrap and design it doesnt bother me. A must have for any collector, and a great piece in Oakley History.

Frame: FMJ Red
Lens: Black Iridium

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24k Gold Iridium

We saw these on an attendee at a birthday party we were at, and had to ask what they were. The aggressive style is what drew us in. After we got them we love the wrap, it's nice and snug so there is little to no sun creeping in from any angle. It's also a very diverse pair that looks great with a suit or in board shorts.

Frame:Platinum
Lens:VR28 Black Iridium
These are one of my first O-matter's. They are very cool looking and very Oakley. I love the metal lugs, tight hinges, and bat wing arms. VR28 is one of my favorite lenses so far and the coverage is good, but the gap in the lower peripheral is a bit distracting. The reason for 3 stars is the fit. They sit too high on my nose, not so high that I can't wear them, but high enough to make them look a little goofy. If the bridge was a little wider they would be great for me. The arms also fit a bit tight for long term comfort. I prefer my valve's overall for looks and fit.

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24K

These glasses are just awesome, they make you just stand out of the crowd with it's extremely agressive design. The butterscotch is in real live way better than on the pictures of Oakley. It is more a kind of deep bright orange.
As said before the eye coverage is very good, but you will actually see a litlle bit of the frame.
They have about the same fit as the Half and Flak Jacket.

Frame:Black Chrome
Lens:Black Iridium
After purchasing and wearing the Persimmon frame I found them to be very comfortable but the eye coverage is a little lacking. The persimmon frame tends to focus the light around the lens and your eyes have a tendency to try to focus on this. It almost seems that the frames are glowing in bright light. The black chrome frame did not have this problem of course but the chrome coating began to bubble and flake after repeated trips mountain biking. I don't know if this was from sweat, heat or what but it began on the stems and progressively moved to the rest of the frame. My brother had the same problem with the black chrome. Overall the scar has the typical Oakley wow factor and the design makes it into the top ten style wise for its aggressive hues.

Frame: grey
Lens: 24k gold



I love these glasses. I use them at work as I need a good pair of glasses to protect my eyes. I took the 24k gold lenses off of the butterscotch frames and put them in they gray frames. I love the way they set each other off. I have the g30 lenses in the butterscotch frames, I use them on cloudy days as it makes everything stand out better.

Frame: Butterscotch
Lens: 24K Gold Iridium

These are awesome glasses. They fit well, have rubber nosebombs, so they don't slide around, and they're unique enough to attract a lot of attention. The lenses are a little oddly shaped, like a cross between a Minute and a Topcoat. They're worth having if you can find them, if only to display.

It's the same generic box, only this time it has claw like 'Scar' in part across the logo/image.

It's nothing special, but I still have them in pristine condition :)

nice look, but only one layer (double layer part with the fleece inside which goes rund the head and covers the forehead), not two like the fine knit beanie, very tight fit O_o hope it gets more wide...

color: white

looks just cool in the windshield from my car.
the rigth place is under the driving mirror!

but you can place this everywhere to show your affiliation :o)

great price for a universal sticker!!!!!

Ive got ALL of these and i just love them skull stickers are my faves.
these will look great whatever you stick them on.

another great sticker to put anywhere to show off your Oakley madness.

Looks perfect with the name TERRORISM... sends a chill up my spine (which is not included with this particular skull)! Also sends the inherent yet unwritten message: don't mess with Oakley!

I bought a handful of these in each color and size. I still have a few unused, and I used most of them on my motorcycle helmet. Like a fighter jet painting on a kill I pasted them on my helmet, more so to denote me almost getting killed!

Also looks good on my snowboard inside a bigger generic 9" 0. Very cool stickers.

Made to look like the O-Shoe. This car won paint job of the year accordingly to Car and Driver Mag. Makes an awesome display piece.

I just love this original design car. While the "tomato" creature on the hood is not as cool as the OTT scientist IMO, I'm just a complete sucker for the yellow kevlar weave on the hood. Love it! (and they are relatively cheap on ebay now!)

I got the silver and yellow but the car and packaging doesnt look like the one above however, it is a scotty canon model car. great piece to add in your display that shows you're a true Oakley fan and lover

While not as sought after as the 1:16 models, this 1:32 does just fine. It's a nice model with great detail and fits in my display cabinet, so that's a plus. I'd recommend picking one up if you're a collector.

had a chance to buy for $35. just does not appeal to me

I was able to pick up the red version pretty cheap. If you can get one for less than original MSRP, get one. They won't disappoint.

While the Scotty Canon Nitro Mater features decent detail on the paint job and heavy die-cast construction, it is still smaller and less detailed than its counterparts. Measuring approximately 9 1/2" long, this model could possibly fill the void in an Oakley tower.

If you ever unwrap this model the first thing you're likely to notice is its WEIGHT. The bike is HEAVY, which signifies sturdy construction. Likewise, it features extremely detailed parts, from the engine to the rotors and everything in between. The paintjob is also exceptionally done, complete with colorful, intricate graphics and multiple NHRA logos. About the only thing missing from this model is a rider to rev the throttle.

This thing is big. I picked it up on a whim, and haven't regretted it. It's a cool conversation piece, Be prepared to devote half a shelf of a double-wide or a large portion of your desk. Completely assembled, it's 18 inches long...

Frame: Cherry On Top
Lens: Grey

I was hesitant to buy these because they look enormous in pictures and because they're very bold with their rectangular shape. I'm still getting my feet under me when it comes to big fashion sunglasses and I find that I can't quite judge accurately whether they look silly on me or not, but I think I really like these on me.

The fit on the Script is far better for my head than the Betray's. Where the Betray's feel like they're going to fall off my head if I bend over too fast and are noticeably loose, the Script hugs my head without squeezing and fits very well all over. A little *too* well in the eye area, apparently, because the top inside corners of the lenses fog up from the close fit.

I can easily look past that, though, because I love almost everything else about these glasses. The layered effect of the frames is very cool and adds some interest to the glasses, although I find the black/white/grey stripes on the underlayer to be a bit intense up close.

I just bought myself a second pair in the Green Tortoise/Dark Bronze color. I'm not sure I'd pay retail for these, but they're definitely unique and very comfortable.

Frame: Pink Suede
Lens: G40 Black Gradient
My wife's pick as the prettiest Oakley for women in the current lineup. That's a mighty tall call, but she knows what women like. These have become the Queen of her collection and they make a nice fashion statement. I believe these are an OPD-only release and they will make that special lady in your life all the more special.

Frame: Cherry on Top
Lens: Grey
Similar to Grapevine with it's immense size, I guess it's needed to qualify for the fashion look. A bit more squared off, I think the Script offers stronger styling and colorways over the Grapevine. Again, without the nosepads that you often get with wire frames, the women in my life had trouble with a comfortable fit.

Frame: Black
Lens: Black-Clear Gradient
My wife calls these her "Audrey Hepburn's". They are definitely for dress-up occasions, but completely in step with the current trends in female eyewear. These will not work for everyone, especially those who are disposed to anything with a fashion forward slant. If you can't be a movie star; why not look like one is what I say. As for the quality and build - very solid and very high quality feel to them. The hinge treatment is a stylish touch that adds sophistication and that little bit of Oakley magic. The embossed microfiber bag and leather case are nice touches too. Oakley is proving that it is taking the female market seriously and this model should compete well in this segment.

Frame: Cappuccino
Lens: Brown-Clear Gradient

My fiance loves these. So much so guess what she asked for for christmas? You guessed it another pair of these! As far as fashion sunglasses Oakley definately does a better job of making a solid looking pair of frames. A lot of other fashion sunnies from other countries just look cheap and hacked. These actually look excellent.

Frame: Capuccino

a mi novia le gustaron mucho, dice que su vision es de lo mejor, y a provocado la envidia de sus amigas jaja

Lens: G40 Black Gradient
My second pair of Scripts (the other being Sapphire/Grey).
The size of these glasses is what initially attracted me to them, followed by the colourway.
I love the design and find it just a little bit different with the dual-layer around the lenses.
I used to have Riddle, another acetate pair, but the fit was just never right on me and they rested on my cheek. The Script feels secure without being tight and aren't overly heavy so can be worn for any occasion. I like that they don't have nose pads as I find the ones in my Behaves can be a bit uncomfortable.
These glasses come with a lovely white micro bag and embossed hard white vault.
2 of my favourite "Go-To" pairs. Love!

Red:

I feel like even though this is Script and technically "womens" that hats are kinda unisex, so I'm definitely going to wear this. It's kind of like how some Oakley sunglasses are made for women, but some guys can pull it off e.g. Pink Camo Wardens or Black Violet Gradient Crosshair S. I think I even saw once that the Chrome/VR28 Crosshairs are supposed to be womens (that's probably from a stupid source), but the point is that the line is fine. And if you can pull it off, you should. Very cool hat.

Color: White

Have 3 pair of these and love'em. I'd wear them more if I could keep my wife away from them!

Frame: stylish, sturdy and just plain beautiful. .. Spot on!
Lens: rx

Frame: Brushed Chrome
Lens: Clear
Nice frame, is sturdy and flexible on the face (at the ear stem only). They are comfortable to wear all day and i feel blend in more than other loud glasses. i've had mine for 2 years now and they still look new.

Frame: Excellent looking fram. Looks good with the semi rimless style. I likes these over the jack knife because they fit better on my face and they seemed sturdier due to the spring hinges. a bit expensive but worth every penny
Lens: Great lenses

One of the old Virgin Serilium colours they used for the Blades, Razor Blades and Eyeshades.
About as retro as you can get.

Only offered on the Eyeshades. Back when only solid colors were offered, this is as extreme as they get.

Looks very cool and retro on my Eyeshades. I'd like to see a re-make of Razor Blades in this color. That would look great with a mullet and a pair of cut-offs.

After watching this movie in bits and pieces all summer I feel like I could suft with the best of them! Great video shots and simple set up, just cool surfing smatherd with oakley. Too bad we dont get to hear the soundtrack at the store :(

I have the white ones, that I got off ebay with the rest of the FlouroCamo Pack. They're very plush shoes, but are super heavy and seem to crease over the toe as I walk. I probably won't use them too much except when going out with jeans on, as they're very bulky and look odd with shorts. On the plus side, Oakley deserves credit for including shoelaces that are the correct length for the shoe. It's a personal pet-peeve when I get shoes with laces that are way too long.

A very cleanly styled shoe with a stiff sole and a lot of padding. The curvy seams along the side give just enough accent to the upper without being too wild.

I really like the metal icon on the back of the shoe. It looks really solid adds a nice accent.

One word of caution: the sizing of these shoes is very strange. They seem to run at least one full size small compared to other Oakley shoes. I have the Fluoro Black and Fluro Olive, and I needed to buy a full size larger than normal. Even then, the Olive seems a tad tighter than the Black. Perhaps the difference in material has something to do with it, as the Olive is canvas while the Black is leather.

Awesome low shoes in usually crazy combos, the design of the shoe itself is not too wild nor too conservative, witch makes it perfect to be an everyday shoe.

The ones in the Fluoro camo packs came with an alternate set of laces, thats a good thinking from Oakley's part

I have seen other colors not in the database like white/red and white/light green

I think Dann gave a great overall view of the DVD. I am a snowboarder but still enjoyed jibbing and rails. Having seen this I cannot wait until Oakley puts out a snowboard DVD.

I can't comment how this compares to other ski videos, but it's pretty entertaining, and the common Oakley items you see just make it better. It's got some pretty good music, like Slayer and Dead Kennedy's, and a few other catchy songs, that I felt myself humming to afterwards. There's a few rap songs like during Tanner "Mama boy trying to be ganster" Hall.

Overall the skiing is very good, and also provides a few gut wrenching crashes. The ending credits is all crashes too, plus another crash sampler in the bonus section. Speaking of bonus, there's tons of material there too. The main feature is about an hour long, but the bonus goes on for another few. Tanner Hall has an extended reel, as well ad one other skier, to a different more aggressive tune, which I ended up liking a lot more than the final cut. There's a few skits, and some behind the scenes footage. One particularly interesting segment documents the title sequence which was filmed in the Utah salt flats. We get some nice footage of the War Wagon chevy doing it's thing.

There's also some trailers for other films and some commericals for Red Bull and the like. Overall, highly recommend it if you can.

Great fun to watch, seeing all the Oakley gear being used in all it's glory.

Yeah Dann gives a good review of it, clocking at 40 minutes not counting the extras, its perfect when you are with friends, drinking a beer and looking for something cool to play on the TV.

Not ordinary a big fan of ski, but the music adds a lot to the overall package and it can usually be found for cheap, go get it !

A nice nuetral colorway. When you see another person wearing this frame you can tell it's not black, but it almost looks like a black tortise. It would be a 5 if the camo was more pronounced.

I brought these lens with black monster dog frames from the o store in orlando. The colour mix of these lens is great to look at and the performance of the lens when wearing is fantastic it takes away any glare thats around and lets you focus on things 100%.

I got the Shallow Blue Polarized lens with the Square Wire frame last summer. I went from an amateur fisherman to a professional in a matter of a few sessions with these glasses. Thanks to Kevin VanDam's personal recommendation on the lens, I can see anything and everything under the water,,,including mermaids.

I found my new favorite lens. I got these with the hydrophobic coating on the NSW for working around water, and it helps a lot. The tint is just a hair lighter than Deep Blue so the lens is more versatile over more lighting conditions. And the slightly purplish hue, probably because this uses blue iridium instead of ice, gets lots of compliments from others. I put my ice lenses away and that's where they'll stay for a while. 5 stars.

Although the blue hue in this lens looks amazing, it appears that the base color detracts from the aesthetics and also allows others to see the wearer's eyes easier. In short, Deep Blue Polarized seems a much better choice.

O changed the base on this lens from neutral to an orange-ish hue not long after releasing them. The orange tint seems to have higher light transmission and your eyes are easy to see through them from a viewer's perspective. So 4 stars for the new orange tint. I liked the neutral better.

I have Black Iridium in Flak and some half jacket transitions that I use for driving and other Misc activities I am looking for another fishing option... use Ice Iridium polarized prescription in Juliet for open water fishing and a have a pair of MJ Hoopika readers in their "Bronze" for inland what I am looking for is a lower light option, is the shallow blue duplicating the condition set that the MJ Bronze is handling and I need to go with something lighter or will the shallow blue fit this spot, If not I cant really seem to find anything in polarized for my half or Flaks, any thoughts that are lighter than the shallow blue in the contrast catagory?

I got some these as XLJ in my Flak Jacket frames. They are are indeed very good lenses, I would buy them anytime again!

And actually I did: over the last 5 years I'm on my fourth(!) pair now ... two pairs of sunglasses got stolen during holidays, one got lost during moving to a new flat.

Looks:
These lenses have a dark amber/bronze base, and a blue iridium coating from outside (greenish-blue hues in the middle, more violet hues at the edges). Definitely interesting colour mix, but your eyes will be visible from outside on a sunny day.

Performance:
Looking from inside the world will be dipped in an orange-amber tint, glare is cut out effectively, contrast is enhanced quite a bit, sharpness increases, things "pop out". The 20% light transmission means they are useful in most weather conditions, except maybe for very bright sunny days.
Although advertised as fishing specific lenses I use them for most every day activities. They might not every body's lenses, as they are high contrast lenses and distort colours a bit, but they are not too distracting and I can wear them for hours.

The Shallow Blue Polarized lenses have actually a similar lens tint to the (also great) Tungsten Iridium Polarized lenses! But the latter have a slightly lower light transmission of 15% and thus appear a wee bit darker.

These are my 2nd favorite Oakley lenses beside the OO Black Iridium Polarized and the Tungsten Iridium Polarized. 5 skulls without hesitation!

Frame: Black Smoke Grey
Lens: Clear Rx

I got these about a year ago and for the most part I love them. They have been the best Rx frames I have ever owned. The seven barrel hinges and solid materials make these frames almost bulletproof. My only gripe about them is that they are a bit heavy and lack rubber/unobtainium on the earstems. This weight and lack of grip seems to contribute to them feeling like they are always falling down my nose by the end of the day. I would probably recommend that someone that wants these frames look into the "Muffler" which seems like it would be slightly more comfortable with the rubber on the earstems.

I get TONS of compliments on them!

Frame: Black Smoke
Lens: Clear

The Shifter is my 3rd Rx pair to date. It has a very sleek, almost GQ design to it, but still retains that Oakley industrial edge. The pair is quite comfortable for a full-frame design, which I usually find to be too heavy. It sits quite comfortably on my face, and provides excellent visual coverage. After two months of almost daily use, I can't say that I have any issues with the fit, function or form.

Frame:Black Smoke
Lens: clear
I have had theses glasses for only a few weeks and find them to be a bit heavy by the end of the day(thank god for contacts) My main concern is that I keep having to get them tighten at the optical place or they fall off my face. I would seriously think twice before buying these again or suggested them to a friend.

These come on every apparel item, and they tend to pile up quickly. They are made from a laminated foam. I scatter them about the collection.

Got from ebay. Initially, I thought it was just some cheap fake item, but was surprised to see it later in O-Stores. The metal tag itself is pretty thin and doesn't inspire a great Oakley display item.

OK as an item, but pretty chintzy.

I have a couple of the foam tags and I'm still trying figure out how to display them. Very cool for mere shirt tags.

Really cool tags. I save all of mine. I actually considered wearing the metal ones like dog tags but coudln't get my self to do it. I have enough things hanging around my neck.

Keep these cool tags when you get them to do a repeating display & be the envy of you friends!

I hold onto all of mine because I, too, think that these make great display items. Only with Oakley would the shirt tag be something to not just throw away!

Color: The best shoe they made, got every color, wish i could find a pair to wear so i didnt have to preserve this feat of engineering...

still own a pair of these myself, very comfortable, and made in the USA !! that was a big thing at the beginning for Jim.

When Oakley released this shoe I wasn't even suprised. I just openly embraced them just as I have everything else. A co-worker once said to me, "I could put an O on a piece of sh*t and you'd buy it wouldn't you?" I said "would it be a metal Icon?"

I got the White which makes the shoe even more unique. Too bad the white one didn't come in Hight tops

A shoe that I have never had the chance to wear, but it holds a place in my heart for it as Oakleys first shoe.
I now own a pair in a small size and keep them on display with the remainder of my collection.
From what I've heard they are an awesome shoe and extremly comfortable, pick up a pair if you can find them.

Color: Black, White

What can I say? These are hands down the coolest shoes ever made and I couldn't be happier to own a pair. I would have paid just about anything for them, but I was lucky to have found a pair for a great price. I love wearing them and whenever I do I feel that my feet are well-protected behind the Kevlar shell that surrounds them. 5 skulls without a doubt!

I gave a 5 for the Shoeone High, but only a 3 here for the Shoeone Low. Main reason is the fit, as I almost always feel the shoe is slipping out off the heels, and I already have the laces tied pretty tight. Secondly, I think the color combo isn't as good as with the High-cuts. the base-metal eyelets on the black, plus the whitish threads holding the fabric in place, just seems like an eyesore to me. The white, with black eyelets, looks much better, but there's nothing like the fuller stealth look on the Black High, Silver High or the Yellow High. Still, I consider myself blessed to have had the opportunity to try out these discontinued shoes. One more thing: the glue that holds the rubber sole to the shoe fabric tends to dislodge where the ball of the foot flexes during walking. But the shoe isn't falling apart or anything like that, nothing some Shoe Goo or the like wouldn't fix. If given a choice, I'd go with the High over the Low any day.

One of the most iconic Oakley product out there. I have the white colour version, BNIB as well. Comfortable? Yes. Grippy? For sure. Rare to find? Well i tend to say it is. Took me over 10 years to finally nail down a pair in 2013.

For any Oakley collector or even a shoe collector. Will i ever part with mine, NO WAY!! They rarely see daylight, only wear them on very special events.

Greatest shoes ever made... I wish I still had mine. Bought them when they first came out and was blown away. Most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I had the white low tops. I wore them until they were completely shot and my wife convinced me to toss them with the bulk trash cause we had too much stuff. I wish I'd have kept them simply because they were so iconic. I used to love to tell people they were made of Kevlar and motorcycle tire treads !! I wish Oakley would reissue....

INCREDIBLE. Made from Carbon fiber this shoe is one of the most unique shoes I have ever seen. I purchased a size 12, with the box signed by JJ himself, but I'm a size 8.5. I would have never worn them anyway. Great looking shoe and great piece of O history.

Cool as hell. ugly as crap. The sole could never provide decent traction under any circumstances, and they look like something MC Hammer would wear proudly. With that said, they are a prized part of my collection.

I've worn my odd-sized Yellow High pair (9.0L, 9.5R) casually for a few months now, and they actually fit pretty well. I normally wear size 9.5-10.0, but these fit me more than OK. Even my left foot has wriggle room still. So, apparently these early US made shoes don't run smaller as other Oakley shoes are often accused of. Man, if I had these on during my army days (and were allowed to wear them), I figure I would be running like the wind thru those obstacle courses! Ha!
Haven't had much chance to test the traction on these, though the sole threads do seem minimal. Maybe I'll test them out on the few wintry days we normally get in Dallas this winter, and see how good it holds over icy paths.
Definitely recommend the high-cut for a secure fit.
******
I've worn the Yellow High to work a couple of times, and basically across the board, rave reviews and comments like "what's that?". Super light, super comfortable. I feel especially blessed to have a pair to wear while keeping another on display (which aren't my size and won't be worn).

BNIB Silver Mids. A very unique colour. Comfortable? Yes. Right size, well one size smaller than i wear but its not tight.

These are one of the best shoes Oakley has made. Although when first issued a bit of dud seller. Now highly sort after.

Now we just need the Mids and lows re issued by Oakley. How about it O team?

Bought these when they came out in yellow. Felt true to size for size 11. Everyone thought I was crazy for wearing shoes that looked like a bumblebee and from afar they looked slightly greenish. Either way they were good while they lasted. I tore them up after a few months. They feel apart after i scraped them on the toe and side. The stitching came undone showed wear like crazy. Would love to own a pair for display, but would never wear them again!

Color: Sand / Black
First Oakley footwear I got. Also the most comfortable; when they say almost an inch of cushioning in the sole I believe them. I'd like to give them a five but the eyelets are rusting and turning green. Besides that these are some tough shoes, more solidly built than any I've bought since (Flesh, Crank, Blender). They were also more expensive though. It will take a lifetime to wear through the Traction Pod sole; it's a shame they retired that sole design (especially with how it rises up higher over the foot unlike the Flesh).

Color: Golden Yellow -Black combo
When this first came out.. it's like I got to have it so bad! This is the intro of the pods at the sole and also gives you and extra height. No complaints about this shoe and I still love it

Color: Black/silver, Black, Red, Blue, White, Grey, Black/black, Black/orange

Excellent shoe, like the flesh but with laces, winner, very tough, good thick leather, come up like new after a rinse in the washer!

Color: Cobalt

Pretty sweet, but the whole pod soles are a little iffy, not very balanced but they take forever to wear.

Color: Black/Yellow

This was the first pair of Oakley shoes to hit Calgary. Blackfoot Motorcycles had them and I dragged my wife (back then she was my girlfriend) down there and she bought them for my birthday. Super comfortable, but quickly became dated. I don't have them anymore. They started to weather quite badly over less than a year. Probably from neglect, but I remember not being impressed at the time.

Shoethree was one ofthe best early offerings from Oakley. I think these have been the best overall fitting pair of shoes I've had from oakley. The traction pod sole is the best Oakley sole to date, and the colorways are fantastic.

Color: Black/Black

I completely love this shoe!! If I could find another pair some wear I would buy them even if it wasn't my size just to have for display purposes. When I saw it I couldn't wait to get them. One of my favorites of all time. They are comfortable, the sole is completely awesome, the perforated toe and lower sides are very cool. I wore them everywhere. Highly recommended!

pare mi la mejor zapatilla del mundo me duraron buen tiempo mas de lo mormal mucho mas a pesar de las exigencias quisiera poder comprarme otros

Colour Black/black

Been wanting a pair of Shoe Three's for ages. Finally able to get a pair used but in really good condition. Its not the colour i aimed for, rather the sand/black colour.

They are a comfy if a little heavy shoe, with the usual Oakley crazy design.

Color: Brown and Kevlar
I got two pairs. Got them as clearance and I still wears them. very comfy

Color: All above.
Excellent, go well with flares for the skater/grafitti dude look, the only fault i found with one pair of mine is that in the rain on slab sidewalks, they make a slapping sound and people stare! Comfortable though

Color: Red

Got on clearance, like most of my Oakley shoes (or ebay!). Great casual shoe look. Very comfortable and solid shoe. No complaints.

I have about 10 pair of these. Love them. It took some getting used to the extremely flat sole though. I had to wear them cause I was the footwear rep for LA and AR when Oakley launched footwear.

Just recently got BNIB Sand coloured in size US 11, i'm usually US 12
They are surprisingly comfy, very in fact. Only issue is the over hang liner inside takes a little while to get used too.
The grip on the outer sole, similar to Shoeone, not real grippy on slippery surface.

So to me, if you can get them, in either BNIB or new as possible, snap them up.

Color: Silver
Another stand out shoe. comfortable enough just about for anything

If you don't feel like carring a fanny pack, wear these. A lot of pockets for small items and personal gizmos. One of the leg pockets fits a bottle of mineral bottle. A zippered pocket secures keys and cash. There's even a small pocket good for loose change. The material is almost as durable as denim but feels a little warm. The little details like the triangular Warning logo that's on the inside (apparently only meant for the owner to see) and the Oakley Softwear stencil logo will surely be appreciated by oakley fanatics.

Very cool shoe..... Like a retro style with the way the from toe top area of the shoe is... very light / comfortable... I have the white / navy..... Looks great with anything....

I got a pair in grey/white a few years ago. Wanted a pair for ages. One of the best comfy shoe's i have worn. Rather wear them with jeans than shorts though.

Got a pair in grey/white colour around the same time i started to collect Oakley shoes in 2006ish. Always wanted the sheet metal colour version though

Not a bad shoe, little bit hard on foot. Also has a thicker sole so makes you taller. Looks great, has great grip.

My girlfriend has a brown pair, looks a little different but smart.

EDIT, 2014 I was finally able to obtain my fave colour, sheet metal with blue highlights.

Very cool box, which is a nice change from the other boxes that the shoes come in. The SI logo is front and center, and can be use to display other O pieces.

Color: Silver / Red Logo
Big Silver cardboard box with a red special forces triangle on top of it. It managed to hold back the unstoppable march of Oakleys assualt boots until I could get them on my feet. Once in place their air of invincibility was only too apparent :)

very bold and industrial looking box design, with a huge red triangle and rivets. perfect for selling the pair of boots that's inside them.

the design of the box is similar to the displays from the eyewear. lot of industrial design to it. The red SI logo is like the cream on a pie. very cool

Nice looking box. Big triangle with special forces on top. No real use for it so I threw it out.

This is one of those boxes that you wish you had kept when you look back 10 years from now. I had a couple of them so I took the box and unfolded it completely. I then cut the sides and turned it into a SI Poster and had it custom framed and matted. If you look in my collection you can see it hanging on my wall in my bedroom. Just an idea guys.... if you are looking for something Oakley and cool to hang on the wall in your man Cave.

This acrtlie went ahead and made my day.

Frame: Matte Black
Lens: VR28 Hybrid

Awesome new M Frame designed specifically to meet the needs of all military and government personnel.

This glass was based on the original Thump design, so it might not be the most aesthetically pleasing design, but it certainly is solid, stong, well made, and will be more than up to the task whatever anybody throws at it.

There is the obligatory safety clip in the middle of the frame to keep the lens tight and where it should be, along with the new style nosepiece, that also has clips to hold it in place.

Very lightweight and comfortable to wear, this is a great alternative/upgrade from the original M Frame design.

Frame:
Lens:
The design of this frame was intended to better integrate with the helmets the riders wear. The old M-Frame earstems bow outwards, making them harder to take on and off one-handed while wearing a helmet. The straight arms on this version eliminate that problem.

Frame: Grey
Lens: VR28
Really nice pair of M Frames and its unique because of the modifications for SI. The frame is very durable but the light weight of the M Frame is not compromised. The design on the earstems looks great but that look of floating that the M Frame has is lost.

Frame: Black
Lens: Grey
The black color of these frames looks great. It has that stealth appearance. The frames are very light weight and eye coverage is excellent. It might look difficult to swap lenses but its actually very simple just as the regular M Frames. The detail on the clip and the earstems really adds to this pair.

Frame: Black
Lens: Clear/Black

They are OK, If I did like M-Frames I would like these, but M-Frames have never been my style. They are very lightweight and cover well, so if you ever were in an IED attack your eyes would be safe, but I am going to throw in the Laser lenses and put them in the case

Frame:
Lens: high perf. M-frame looks to be a cross between the Thump top piece with its ridges and a traditonal M-frame earstems. The top band is more narrow as not to impead vision when looking up. Saw Lance Armstrong at this years Tour de France with a pair on during warm ups.

Frame: Foliage
Lens: SI Ballistic vr28

I finally tried them on, and wow! Design itself isn't that cool, in fact VERY ugly. But when I tried on with my helmet &headset, this pair just fit right PERFECT. It was super easy to take em off, too.

I tried on the mil version, so it had this plastic piece on the frame. I swapped the lens around with my civie model and mil model, they all work, except I have to drill a hole on the lens to use the plastic piece. it causes scratch on lens whenever I tried to swap. I already killed two lens thank you very much! If you ain't gonna be kickin doors down, keep the plastic piece off.

Frame: Black
Lens: G30 Vented Hybrid S
Finally - Oakley developed the SI M Frame 2.0 for the needs of SOCOM and its operators. Lance wore prototypes, as they are not available to the general public. Not meant to be pretty (and they aren't) but completely functional when worn with various types of head/helmet gear, Low-profile frame and hinge design along with more substantial construction throughout will drastically reduce fit and breakage issues of the old M Frame. Lenses are interchangeable, provided they are SI and drilled for the clip.

Frame: Grey
Lens: Grey Strike

After years of seeing Oakley put out very restrained sunglass designs, it is nice to see something like the SI M Frame 2.0. Unfortunately it's not available to the general public.

Based to some degree on the Thump 1, The SI M Frame 2.0 has the same ridges on the top of the frame and a smaller, obviously modified version of the earstems. Many people would say that it's an ugly frame, and they may be right. It's definitely an either hate it or love it thing with no in-between, just like with the Thump 1. However, I don't think it's all that bad and the fact that it's Oakley's most unique frame in years make up for it. While worn, the distinguishing alien features of the sunglass are not as pronounced. As well, the frame does come with a clip that further reinforces the lenses and keeps it from slipping off, presumably during battle. Whatever the case may be, the clip looks odd and isn't very attractive when worn, though it does look fine on the frame itself when on display.

As far as I'm aware, you can use regular M Frame lenses on the SI M Frame 2.0. That's an added bonus, since this model only comes stock with Grey, VR28 or Clearn lenses. Naturally, you cannot use the aforementioned clip with other lenses, but it's just as well since, as I've said, it's not an attractive thing.

As noted below in other reviews, the new design allows for better fit with helmets. But this also leads to the fit of the frame to be tight as hell. It's like wearing a vise sometimes and can be uncomfortable after a while.

Overall, I give the SI M Frame 2.0 a 4 out of 5, taking one point off for not being as comfortable as it could be due to the tight fit. I am pleased with the odd design and glad it's not as restrained as some of the current models. Hopefully this sort of design will become a trend for years to come (and released on consumer models as well).

Review dated: January 21, 2007

Frame: Grey
Lens: Grey
I never liked the M Frames but the 2.0 has an appeal to me that just told me I had to get it. I think the more aggressive style is what attracted me. It fits really well and eye coverage is great. You do look like you're in the military when you wear it, but I will only wear it when I'm out riding my bike or playing outdoor sports.

Frame: Black
Lens: VR 28 Strike.

Fairly Ugly. This is a M-Frame for military applications. The Top clip can be popped off allowing normal m-frame lenses. There are two extra noise piece indents in the lens that fit a gap in the nose piece making the nose piece extra secure.

Frame: Matte Black
Lens: VR28 Hybrid

A change well done. I have worn Ms before and never actually thought I would again. They had become old hat in a sea of so many radical items. Even with later incarntations and beefed up frames they always came across as the same old M-Frame. Well this here is a new M-Frame. It's impactful and aggressive. A lower profile in many apsects but styled to show it's strength. The stems have been slimmed and the hammer, eliminated. Smooth fitting under a helmet/straps or if you just don't need the sweeping stems protruding from your temple. A slightly tighter grip helps it to stay in place in the roughest conditions with larger earsocks for a better hold when the situation heats up. A welcome change for all M fans and those who have grown tired of the past offereings.

Frame: Grey
Lens: grey
Not the best looking sunglasses(at least with the strike lens), But i bought them for function over form anyways, In which case they're very good. I use them for jetskiing, snow skiing, and other outdoor activities. For these aplications they're perfect... Very Robust Sunglasses. Also comfortable and a great field of view.

Frame: Black
Lens: New Hybrid Clear

The frame design is reminiscent of the Thump, having ridges on the brow along with redesigned earstems, yet the secure fit of the M Frame lineup remains the same. As always, the frame includes unobtainium earsocks for added comfort and true metal icons. The New Hybrid lens also provides excellent coverage, with outstanding perephrial protection. Ultimately, the intrinsic appeal of these shades lies in their "unusual" M Frame design coupled with the fact that you simply don't see them every day.

Frame: Grey
Lens: Grey New Hybrid

After receiving these glasses straight from Oakley, it was a bit of a disappointment to see that they've scrapped the full metal icons (they're now a solid, one-piece mold where the icon adorns the earstem). Oakley also added small "holes" to the ends of the earstems on these glasses, probably to secure them with a cord. Despite the minimal change on the frames (lack of a true metal icon), the collectability suffers greatly IMO, as the frames appear to have been "cheapened" (almost resembling Foakleys).

Frame: Black
Lens: Clear/Grey

Got them for CHEAP!! Came with the ballistic nylon case, microfiber cleaning/storage bag, clear and grey lens, frame itself, and an optional head/neck strap u can put on and take off.

Although these are military spec, I am only using them for housework projects which require drilling, hammering, etc. The fit is great. The frames may not look very attractive or pleasing, but as Oak said, "While worn, the distinguishing alien features of the sunglass are not as pronounced." This means when you wear them, you do not really notice the weird ridge designs on them. From a distance, they look like normal frames. Because of the matte color, it keeps a low profile and hence I think also due to no more metal icons on the sides.

In a way, those weird ridge designs on the frame make it even more Oakley. Sometimes Oakley just designs and adds things to their products which may have no purpose at all, like in the case of those weird ridges, or maybe they do.....

Frame: Black (matte)
Lens: Clear and Grey strike

I just want to add that looking at photos of the original M frames, these new 2.0 look way more rugged and durable looking. The older M frames looked too "luxurious" with the metal icons. These 2.0 versions look like they truly were meant for war and battles =]

Frame: Black
Lens: Clear Hybrid and Strike

When I first saw these I thought they were fugly. After a while they grew on me a lot. It helped to see a pair without the lens clip installed and with a standard lens (no whole). I wouldn't exactly call them pretty, but that's not why I bought them. They do have a tough kinda industrial thing going on though, perfect for work. They look way better in hybrid too IMO.

The pair I have are an early example which is both good and bad. The cool part is they have the metal icon in gunmetal which looks way better than the molded in icon. The bad part is they don't have the holes in the earstems so I can't use the strap that came with them if I want to. The fit is great, very comfortable for a long day of work. They fit way better with a hat than the standard M-frame.

The array case they come with is a bit different than the standard one and more functional. It has deep cutouts in the foam so the arms sit right in there when they're folded instead of laying on top. There are also 2 little vents to breathe out moisture and a provision to attach the case directly to a utility belt as well as the swivel clip.

All in All, I love these things! I use them at work daily and they both look and work better than any standard saftey glasses. I went back to my 1.0 SI M-Frames for a bit and it became even more apparent how much better they are from a function standpoint. 5 skulls :^)

Frame: Grey
Lens: Grey Hybrid
I have used these glasses for eight months now in Afghanistan. I have been very impressed with them. Here are my pros and cons:

Pros: The fit is excellent as you would expect from a pair of Oakleys. I run in them and do all sorts of operations in them and never have to worry about them sliding down my nose. They are very light weight and thus very comfortable over extended periods of time. The wrap around design offers a good amount of protection from sun and shrapnel (although fortunately I have not had to test out the shrapnel stopping abilities yet.) The scratch resistant coating on the lense is also very good as mine have not had much in the way of scratches yet. I have also had no problems with fogging. I've used a pair of Wiley X's before because they offer more protection in sand storms (because of the goggle design), but in cold weather they fog up very badly. The design is a little off putting at first, but it has definite advantages. Since there are no hammers on the side, it fits better with a helmet. Also, the lack of the metal Os I believe is done to meet Army regulations which say glasses cannot have symbols on them.

Cons: Unobtainium is a blessing and a curse when it comes to these glasses. They help them stick to your head, but they also stick to the headsets used inside vehicles. Thus if you are wearing a headset and turn your head a lot, the headset has a tendency to move the glasses around. It would also be nice if these lenses used Oakley's new hydrophobic technology. The lense is very close to my face and thus gets oily very quickly, and of course Afghanistan is a very dusty environment, so they also get dusty very quickly. It would also be nice if they had Transition lenses. Yes you can swap between grey and clear, but if you are driving a vehicle and then enter a building, you don't have time to swap lenses. Of course, these two additions would make them cost more too, so it's a tradeoff.

Frame: Balistic M Frame
Lens: Various
Have worked on three different people with shrapnal injuries to the face. Two had on the balistic M frames one had went to a local shop and bought a Foakley pair. The two with the real deal had zero eye injuries. As a matter of fact, one guy had on the retention strap and came in still wearing them. The other guy, yeah he will be getting a good compensation check even though he is blind do to his own idiocy.

Frame: Black
Lens: +Red Hybrid classic

Ever since I saw Armstrong sporting a white set of these I had to get a pair. I settled for the black color (until that time I muster the courage to paint it white). Being a long time M Frame fan, these things are sweet! The clear lenses got tossed and a new set of +red hybrids went in. And I was fortunate enough to get a pair with the metal icons. These fit better in every way than the previous design, and Oakley was smart enough to fix the problem of the tips of the earstems scratching the inside of the lenses. Only con is that the earstems are not break away.

Frame: Grey
Lens: Clear, Grey, Laser (Array)

I bought these specifically for shooting and have had them for a little over a year now. With the clear and grey lenses, it reasonably covers most conditions for indoor and outdoor shooting ranges. Had they included the VR28 for overcast days instead of the Laser lens, it would have been perfect. But these aren't meant to be available to the public, so a military specific lens is understandable.

The lack of a metal icon is disappointing to a consumer. But again, they're not supposed to be for your average Joe. They're meant for our GI Joes.

For their purpose, they work very well. The slim profile frame fits well under ear muffs and I'd assume they would be equally at home underneath a headset. They're fit is more snug than the normal M Frame or Radar so if you have a wide head, they'll get uncomfortable after wearing them for a while. I've had spent brass from both my own guns as well as shooters in the next lane pelt me and these do their job perfectly. Hopefully, I never have to test how they'd hold up to a bullet ricochet (or worse).

The extra clip on the lens makes swapping a bit more challenging but you get used to it. And the extra security they provide compared to the standard M Frame is worth the extra hassle.

Frame: SI Ballistic 2.0 M frame
Lens: +red iridium
Had the options of Pro m frame and the original m frame, but chose this over them for the rugged and unconventional look.
despite typical reviews of the absence of aesthetic appeal, i beg to differ because the frame, if viewed from the front, differs from the original M frame only with the jagged edging, which personally i find very interesting and appealing. Also, the wrap around straight arms make this 2.0 M frame a somewhat amalgamation between the m frame and the radar, and also gives a much tighter and confortable grip, and i can safely run/climb/bike without fear of it dislodging. Also, the absence of a discernable icon is hardly different from a normal m frame, where the icon is slanted to the top, and cannot be easily seen from an onlooker.

all in all, 5 skulls! for minimal compromise in aesthetics *it looks better from my POV* and much better function as it wraps more snugly and gives me more confidence to perform without any worries

Frame: Black
Lens: Grey Strike

These are the absolute pinnacle of function in a sunglass. I bought these for the sole purpose of being able to wear them in uniform, but I find myself wearing them just out and around. As with all M-Frames, they are light, no vision is blocked, and they are comfortable. It doesn't get any better!

Awesome eyepro! I used Oakley M-Frames 1.0 and Half Jackets for a while in Iraq back during 2007 until I decided to switch to the Mframe 2.0, and i'm glad I did. There's no doubt about it, the origional MFrames and any of the Jacket styles are much more aesthetically pleasing the the SI 2.0's, but in terms of ruggedness, durability, and operability for tactical operations the 2.0 is definately leading the game for Oakley. The low profile arms fit well underneat helmets and headsets alike, and hug your temples, shouldn't even really need the retention strap for this one, boys. Durability is astonishing, i've stepped on the frames and have not been able to break them. I actually once had a pair ran over by a 5 ton up armoured HMMWV. The Frame was shattered, but the lense DID NOT break, and was actually not nearly as bent as you would think from being run over by a multi ton vehicle. Moral of the story is, i feel quite confident that the lenses can stand up to any sort of fragmentation that could be thrown at them. The Lense retention clip ENSURES that the lense will not pop out. The limitation of lense tints and styles is a bit of a negative for the 2.0, but basically irrelevent for a soldier deployed, since the Authorized Protective Eyewear List specifically states that clear or gray lense are the only authorized tints to be worn with protective eyewear(and believe me the unit i'm in now are NAZIS when it come to having everything perfectly AUTHORIZED), and who do you need to impress when you are on a patrol through Iraq or Afghanistan lol. However, that being said, for everyday civilian wear, i would rather go with my origional M-Frames or my Flak Jackets, because they simply look sexier. But, when it's time to get down to bussiness, it's time to pull the mighty 2.0's out of the case and get down and get dirty.

Just got these and plan on using them as a firefighter. Very comfortable but not the most fashionable for people with smaller faces. Still, my eyes feel very protected. The extra safety clip is a bit hard to maneuver but otherwise everything is good. Very sharp and clear vision...nothing obstructing or distorting.

Frame: M Frame 2 Strike
Lens: Grey/Clear

Not in the military but finally Oakley glasses I was actually willing to pay the premium for. The lense is outstanding with zero distortion from any angle.

I need safety glasses in a car production plant all the time due to weld flash, very happy camper indeed :-)

The additional slots on the inside of this case make it nice to take additional lenses for altering weather conditions. The belt clip on the outside makes it easier to carry if you don't have room inside your main storage compartment.

Frame: Bone
Lens: Clear and Grey array

I've been using the 2.0 at work for safety glasses, friend hooked me up with the 3.0. The lens is bigger than a traditional Strike, slightly taller and wider for more peripheral coverage. The nose piece is revised and is made of firmer rubber and plastic, the clip works better, and the temples are less pronounced than the 2.0. The lack of rubber helps keep the stems flatter against your head to not get in the way of hearing protection, headphones, etc. The only downside is the extreme wrap of the stems to make up for no rubber makes it harder to put them on one handed.

I wear them between 2-10 hours a day every day for work, and the added anti-fog is greatly appreciated, as is the new color option that doesn't stand out as much as black.

Very comfortable, doesn't move, overall improved over the 2.0. Love it!

Frame: Black
Lens: Black/Clear

Got these from a friend, they will make nice shooting glasses, I like the fact that they are not available to everyone so they have a little extra value when I wear them because every asks where they came from, but for everyone here you can always find them on ebay.

Frame: Black (Strike)

Perfect functioning glasses. If I had to keep one pair of sunglasses, this array would be the ones to keep. I especially like the military-specific case, with loop attachments and drainage ports.

Frame: M Frame (STRIKE)
Lens: Laser/Grey/Clear/Persimmon
Ok i use these for standard duty and shooting, there great for indoor ranges or Urban combat situations not for Desert or tropical, the laser lens is the only lens ive never used, and i don't use these that often, they are complicated to take apart if you don't have the booklet or the net to teach you, however the wraparound view is great, helps block UV or light when your moving from one building to the next.

Great pair. I use these for firefighting/extrication/normal work. The unobtanium is GREAT for sweaty situations. I have a small face so these are a bit big but they do provide me with enough protection. I like the strap, too. This comes in handy. The no fog solution doesn't really work but that's not a big problem. I like the case as it can fit on my belt, bag, or stash away in my gear bag.

Great lenses. The classic three colors that you can rely on for pretty much anything. Tragic that the SI arrays don't naturally come in sets where Hybrid S is a standard lens size, but hey...

I think of the lens tints in this way: grey for bright sunlight but light enough for shadow. persimmon for foggy to slightly inclement conditions. Clear for dead of night with the cygolight so you don't smash into a tree. Besides. I'm not one that's huge for iridium coated lenses for sport use anyhow. No, if I had a red+ lens while riding my bike, I'd be thinking too much about keeping my lens nice and pretty than paying attention to the tree trunks in my path. Classic Three are great for me.

Frame: Black
Lens: Black/Clear

Army Issue in Iraq. I don't wear M-frames much but we are required to wear ballistic eye wear all the time so they are comfortable and have the O.

Frame: SI Black
Lens: Clear/Grey

I use these at work in the machine shop. They are very functional for this purpose. They are way more comfortable than generic safety glasses, opticaly perfect, and ANSI Z87 approved so the boss approves. Besides, if I have to wear eye protection, I'd rather represent the O than wear some generic crap.

Tired to change the lenses on mine and one of the bolts just spins, the mounding on the frame that stops the back part of the img from foraging must be defective. Needless to say Oakley U.K. nor SI inthe USA will help even bough they were purchased from an official dealer. Oakley U.K. actually told me the model was discontinued and suggested I buy a new pair. What a laugh.

Hmmm....This looks cool, but it's too hard to work. I can never get it to stay rolled up and when it is rolled up I look like a tool. It's good when it's really cold though and if I need just the beanie I can always break out the fine knit beanie.

Too big for my head, and I don't like how flimsy it feels when it is rolled up and attached by the buttons. It seems like air can still get inside, since the mask is only covered and held up by one button on that side.

I like the concept, but it sucks as a beanie. It would be awesome as a dedicated balaclava, but the buttons get in the way. I want to remove the buttons so I can wear it under a helmet for snowboarding, but I can't find another to keep pristine for my collection.

really dont like the SI graphics

I love this hat. I like the strong material used for this cap. One size only, but it fit me perfectly.

I have only seen this hat in black - of which I have one...very cool, subtle hat, love it!

Very cool looking hat. The quality of the fabric is really nice and thick and durable. The little extra bands are a great addition to put your golf tees. The one thing I didn't like about this is the stiffness of the hat. It took some breakin into to get comfortable.

Black

I have the SI silicon stretch fit cap, its not really flashy and has a nice little icon logo in the center

Color: Black
Very plain cap with only just the small SI logo on it. The red color on the cap mix very well with the black. Flexfit makes it a good fit everytime.

nice simple cap makes the si logo stand out also the rubberized oakley on the back completes the look. i usually dont like fitted caps but the flexfit works great

Not bad at all, subtle detail with the SI logo and the Oakley printing on back. Would have been nice if the whole cap was padded (only the front part is) but overall very nice design and colour scheme (the red could have been replaced with a more subtle colour but now I'm just being picky).

The mesh material makes this hat very light. It is nice on hot days allowing your head to 'breath'. The velcro on the front is cool by giving the option to attach different patches.

Personally, I'd choose the regular CD case for the big freakin icon on the cover. The SI case has a decent look ... but I like the AP line packs over this case.

Color: Yellow
A super bag, and I sadly don't have a laptop to go with it. I love the notion, though, of having that seperate padded "case" enclosed within the computer bag. Lots of room, multiple compartments.

Blue. Got this from the local rep, given as a gift to reps for somereason or another but was passed on to me also as a gift. Great bag, just screams Oakley, very tough, gets tons of looks and works great. Yet another solid piece of Oakley product and another happy consumer.

Oakley finally made a computer bag with a fully padded compartment for laptops, however the interesting thing about it is that the padded laptop compartment is a seperate component from the rest of the bag, which can be pulled out. This makes it kind of a pain because to get your laptop out you need to unzip the main compartment and then the padded one. Kudos to Oakley for adding a powercord compartment next to the laptop compartment. The front three compartments are removeable as per the Adapatable Payload system which is kinda cool. I wish the bag had one extra compartment just for papers, folders, or magazines, it starts to buldge a little if you have those things in there while a laptop is in it's compartment. Also, the front bags make it a little difficult to get to the release latches for the front flap. The bag is BIG and the military look is cool, but I don't think it would work well for business types like the old bags did, but if you're a super geek, you'll love this bag and be the envy of you're friends.

First, I would like to say that I recieved this bag for my 30th birthday, after begging my family to buy it for me. For their generosity, I am eternally grateful.

I have tested this bag in one of the most grueling real-world scenerio: I am a high school special education teacher without a classroom. I carried my 17" laptop, grade and plan books, all my classroom materials (paper, pens, folders, etc.) and extra stuff for meetings as well as my power adapter in this bag.

The bag showed absolutely no signs of wear after lugging all of this around a city high school for 3 months. It was comfortable to carry, held EVERYTHING, was easy to get into and always recieved compliments from fellow teachers.

This bag is rugged and huge, and the ONLY choice if you have a 17" laptop.

this is the laptop bag of my choice , this baby carries everything i need to take with me . the padding is A+ , the 3 front components, in which i put my mouse and electric cables
the only flaw is that it squeeks when you walk, due to the metal strap-rings. other than this , its perfect, including the styling

This is a review and a follow up to TecDragon. First of this is one of the best laptop bag I have ever had. My previous PC bags where Tumi and Halliburton. The construction on this bag is first rate. I am a Programmer and I take this bag every where with me to see all my clients in Miami. The removable bags are a huge plus for me as I keep them stocked with various parts I need for my jobs, when all I’m doing is downloading I can leave the other stuff at my office. At first my visually looking at the shoulder strap I thought I was going to have to replace the shoulder strap because visually it looks uncomfortable. I was way wrong I can now carry more wait than before with less stress on my shoulder. Great R&D Oakley, nice job! As far as what Tec dragon was talking about, yes at first it was a drag to have to take out a second section to get to my laptop. But I easily solved this buy opening the flap all the way back and reversing the side that faces out so now it just slips in and out. In the event I feel I need for protection (traveling etc) I can simply reverse it back. I hope Tec Dragon reads this and finds this useful. If you need a bag of this size don’t think twice it awesome.

When i bought my new laptop last year i had to get an Oakley bag for it and found this to be a great fit. The Storage for this bag is amazing... as with any Oakley Product they went with the whole MORE IS MORE thinking... MORE STORAGE! MORE PADDING! Everything was done correctly on this bag... I've used this bag exclusively for a few years now and have traveled extensively and have tried to beat the bag up and to no avail... it LOOKS BRAND NEW! That speaks to me of excellent craftsmanship! Oakley hit the nail on the head with this one.

i only have a 13" laptop, so i have a lot of space for all of my other electronics in this bag. it looks badass, and it's comfortable. i like it a lot.

Colour: Black

Fits my 17 inch Mac with not trouble. Inner sleeve that encases the laptop can be removed and used on its own complete with an inner pocket for a cable.

The 8 inner compartments are vast, padded and very versitle. There are two side sleeves (super imposed) against one wall, a keychain, a soft padded pocket, 3 pen/pencil loops, a zippered net pocket superimposed on another pocket. a padded velcro-flap pocket and on the adjacent wall 2 net pockets. They hold ...dics, mouse pads, mouse etc. The other 3 removable pockets I have used to contain a mouse, ipod, cables etc.

I agree with Tek Dragon with his point stating the desire to have a separate compartment for folders and papers etc. I adapt to this exclusion by putting papers/folders in the compartment housing the laptop.

The arm strap is very comfortable.

It is a larger bag and empty is heavier than your typical computer bag. The design is second to none and it will get noticed. It is tough and durable. I have put mine through hell and back and it shows no wear and tear.

Bad=ass bag that screams a lot of attitude! The inner separate notebook sleeve/bag don't contain metal materials and therefore TSA compliant giving protection to your notebook when they require you to take it out of your bag at airports.
The adaptable payload system is a plus. I own other AP pieces, bags, eyewear, mp3/cell phone pouches, so therefore I can do mix n match on the outer pouches depending on my needs. You can even add more pouches on the side straps of the bag or the back webbing if you really need the extra storage.
Oakley's AP system is technically the same as the military's molle system. If you own molle tactical pouches specific to its purpose, then you can do your own mix n match according to your preference.
The only drawback is there's no dedicated outer zippered pocket for your travel documents, paper tickets, or papers. This would come handy when you travel at airports without opening the main compartment. There is an outer pocket at the back with a zipper on the bottom. Main purpose is for attachment to a roller on luggage. If you don't use that function, then it's a great pocket for your documents. But some people like me would rather attach this big bag to my roller luggage at the airport. Even when you use the back pocket just for documents, there's a danger of loosing your documents in case you accidentally left the bottom zipper unzipped for whatever reason.
To solve this problem, again going back to the AP/molle system, I attached a flat vertical molle pouch designed for paper documents to the back webbing of the bag. The zippered document pouch is less than an inch thick and if you can find one of the same color to your bag it just look like it's still a part of the bag.

This is a great looking bag. Sturdy and durable, this makes a great every day laptop bag. The three pockets on the front add some much needed storage space, as there isn't much room on the inside if you're carrying a laptop. The straps on the ends are great for holding a water bottle and/or your laptop's power cord if it doesn't fit in the protective laptop sleeve along with your laptop. I love the shoulder strap.

I actually have the SI Assult glove and they are realllly nice. Extra padding on the tops of the fingers and the knuckles. They have vents so your hand can still breath and they are easy to work in.

I picked these up on sale at the Vegas vault and was very surprised by how much I liked them. They are surprisingly warm and dexterous. The only thing I would change is to give them a waterproof/breathable liner. Even so I've worn them in heavy snow and never had a problem with wet or cold hands.

Color: Black

I really like these gloves - they look extremely bad-a$$ and they are quite warm, but my only problem with them would be that they are very bulky and cumbersome. Other than that, I would recommend them to just about anyone...as long as they can deal with the bulkiness.

Frame: M Frame Industrial w/ (Z87 stampings)
Lens: Grey Strike

This fulfills the requirement for American workers who need to wear safety glasses at work, but want Oakley quality and performance. I wear mine everyday at work, and I love them.

Frame: Black
Lens: Clear/Black Iridium

I just got these and they're GREAT. I'm planning on using them at work (fire dept./Ambulance). They are VERY comfortable (which is surprising since I have a smaller head). I thought they wouldn't fit too well but I was very wrong! The glasses have a cool look and seem like they will hold up very well!

Frame: Black M Frame Industrial with Z87 markings
Lens: Grey extended Strike lens

The Industrial M Frame model 11-162 is often mistaken for the M Frame 09-102 which also comes with grey Strike lens, and overall looks similar to the 11-162. This M Frame model has Strike type lens, only difference with the lens on this industrial M Frame is that the lens is longer on the sides for an enhanced eye protection from the side. The lens, being industrial, also doesn't have the words Oakley engraved on the front of the lens unlike the other lenses from the Radar and M Frame series. Of course, you can just get any replacement M Frame lens and have it fixed onto the frame. Replacing lenses is easier than the Radar! This M Frame feels really good on the face, and I use it occasionally for cycling, switching to and fro between my Radar depending on the conditions. The large unobstructed lens of the Strike lens helps in vision and Oakley's HDO really help. The only downside of the M Frame lenses are that they don't have the Hydrophobic coating like the Radars, so they stain more easily, but its just as easy to wipe it clean with the supplied micro fibre bag! The frame feels very durable and its pretty light. Overall, the shades look really cool and I highly recommend this product!

Frame: Rootbeer
Lens: Persimmon

These are great! I teach two woods courses this year and have been using them this semester. The kids love them and they're excellent at protecting my eyes. The coverage is excellent and the persimmon lenses are amazing. They really make things look like they have life. I was actually cutting a piece on the chop saw and it flew off from the blade, bounced off of the concrete wall leaving a hole, and hit me square in the eye. Luckily, Oakley is awesome and it barely left a scratch. These are a must have for safety and are my go to pair for everything. I haven't used these for anything else yet however, and have no idea if I ever will. These don't seem to be the "going out" type. I got my Lifestyle frames for that!

Frame: Black M Frame
Lens: Hybrid

The kit offers alot to those who shoot indoors as well as outdoors. I think that the G26 is an AMAZING lens that highlights and emphasizes orange colors and looks great too. Clear lens good for indoors and night shooting. I think they could have chosen a better lens than grey (possibly G30) but it does work well.(just kinda boring to look at). Great overall value seeing as you are getting frames, 3 lenses, extra nose piece, cleaning cloth and array vault.

This bag will hold your laptop, a couple of thin folders, and maybe a small mouse. It's not the bag you take to work with all your work crap, but the one if you just need to make a quick trip to a local cafe and exploit their free WiFi. Typically overbuilt, and pretty cool looking.

Used this a few times now and I find I loving it more and more.
Great industrial design clasps, stiff at first but now moving freely. Seperate laptop padded pocket with great datails.
really practical.

Your laptop will be very secured in this bag with the extra padded wrap around case. However I noticed that when I carry it using the small handle across the cover, it will leave the sides uncovered. That extra handle should be made of regular handle rather that a "strap like material". However I find this very useful bag for folders, files and other things that I carry with me in the car.

Nice bag to hold your computer, but not much more room. I'm just not to big on the vertical bags. But it's a great bag for a standard laptop, very secure.

I think this is one of the best bags,although there are some things that bother(ed) me. I had to shorten the straps, becuase they were to long and I something have to put some grease on the really nice looking metall clasps, because they make some funny noises somethimes,

All in all it´s a nice bag and I love the extra,seperated computer bag

Color: black
Stylish and Expensive. The logo is very captivating.

The new version is even nicer. same price more art

Awesome looks. The logo comes out great.

By far the best wristband made by Oakley. The SI logo is a great addition and really stands out. I actually have found the above style and another style with the SI logo on a black strap with red stitching on the sides. The alternative style with the red stitching is even more striking.

Frame: Light Brown Tortoise
Lens: Bronze Polarized

I was shocked to land a pair of these early. But they are incredible. The frames are similar to the Montiofrio but have a much tighter fit and for me that was a plus. They have a hint of Frogskins and a hint of the Monti's overall a great product that will be very successful.

Frame: White
Lens: VR28 Black Iridium

I really like these frames. I have a slightly larger than average head. That being said, they are a little snug on my face. Not uncomfortable, just a little snug. I love the way that Oakley when a little outside of the box with the emblem on these. Overall a nice addition to the collection.

Frame:
Lens:

These remind me of a cross between the Hijinx and the Frogskin. Both are "non-descript" frames in my opinion. With that said, their offspring, the Sideways seems uninspired, at best. I'm also not a fan of acetate frames in the slightest. I've seen too many occasions of metal hinges being torn free of the frames. Acetate doesn't flex much at all. Those two pitfalls coupled with my large head make these frames a no-go.

Frame: Black Plaid
Lens: Grey Polarized
I went in thinking I would pick up the Sheckler edition, but was underwhelmed. Then, I saw the Black Plaid with the white insides. Just the look alone had me sold. They fit like a brick due to the acetate being quite rigid and stiff, but if they fit you, they fit you. The sideways orientation on the icon is unique and for that, I give it props. Just when you think they can't find something new and differnet to do with an "O", they prove you wrong. The price was a bit to stomach, but apart from that the Sideways is a winner in my book.

Frame: Polished Black
Lens: Grey

For it being an acetate from it is light on your face and surprisingly comfortable, I also as a good shape not to big not to small and like always can go bad with polished black with grey lenses

Frame: Black
Lens: Grey

I only had these briefly. As with all Acetate frames, they are stiff and heavy. I'm used to the lighter O Matter frames, which can easily be used all day. However, the style of the sideways Square Icon is a nice touch. For fashion use, these are a very nice pair, but personally not to my taste.

Frame: White
Lens: VR28 Black Iridium

I tried them today, just because they were looking much nicer in real life than on the internet. Well, they are very stiff and not the lightest Oakleys around, but they are well balanced - not like the montefrio wich is sitting heavy on the nose and causing headaches. But they are still too stiff for my head, which really s***. Why?

Their design is awesome. They are big and have curves, but also a very dominat and straight vertical outline - and I love that! Like the Twitch they look like Oakley sport-fashion shades, definately eye-catching but still pretty functional. There's no light coming in from the sides or above and they wrap around the head nicely.

If someone finds a pair that is a bit wider - pm me ;)!

Frame: black
Lens: black
this particular pair has a specific style of person it will look good on, im not one of them. but I still love em, they are a heavy pair which suprised me. and when i first started wearing them the arms would dig into my temples and give me a headache.

Frame: Ryan Sheckler
Lens: Grey

The design of this frame is AWESOME, but they fit terrible! I get headaches wearing mine from how tight they fit. Not my favorite pair at all.

Frame: white
Lens: Rx grey

I first had the grey plaid asian fit and they were too snug and hurt the sides of my head returned them and got the white ones have to say much wider and feel fine on my head for a long time. Love the gold angled "O" and the gold metal etching very cool detail.

too much rubber in the front. either have the O icon or stretch icon

This is your standard silver non-glossy wire frame. Nothing too special about it.

i have the a wire in a silver frame with the ice lenses, i think it looks great together, i also have it with black lenses and it is a little boring but overall i like it.

they're just silver coloured matte frames. i agree that they're pretty standard. they do look good with Ice or Fire Iridium lenses on the Square Wire 2.0 SH though.

Found this frame to be a bit strange in that the texture is kind of rough. Still looks ok with Ice but overall I wish they had done the A Wire 2.0 SH in dark

This is a good color for my Wardens. On another frame, it gets a bit boring, but given the desing of this frame, anything more flashy would be way too much. I'll save polished gold wires for RayBan.

This looks like a matte frame in low light but in the sun - wow! It really lights up, becoming a bright silver. Excellent when paired with Ice.

not much to say about this frame, its silver. ive got it on my OO Square wires and it just seems like a rather standard boring colour.

I had these in some M Frames awhile back. Its a pretty nice color. Surprisingly, its not as flashy as it might seem when you see them in person. I liked them because it pretty much looked good in any color lens. I liked to use the fire iridium with these.

It has really nothing special, but I like it. With the Ice lenses looks cool.

What to say? It's plain silver and for that it looks good. Goes very well together with Fire!

The silver wire frame is what it is - silver. Looks good with Ice Iridium. But there are more interesting frames, but for a silver colour that is very good.

This is similar to the double but it only showcase oneside

I got these socks a while back, when I was younger and considerably dumber. At the time I thought they would make nice winter socks, but I was terribly wrong. Now I don't know about most of you, but my socks go through the typical warm wash in the laundry machine and after that, the dryer. Over time the socks lose the comfort that might've been part of the reason you bought them, and of course, they will become smaller. I don't even wear mine anymore because they are that hard to get on. The embroidery is nice, I guess, since they are the only pair of socks I own with that kind of stitching. Still, thats no excuse to buy them (as if they're available now, thank god).

you can see that someone was just playing around with a compass and designed this pair completely with circles

Very interesting to view. More backforund info would be great!

I love seeing sketches like this. It gives you a real insight into the mind designing them. Would be real nice to get one of these drawings and framing them to hang up on the wall.

Oh man, I wish I could get my hands on one of these. They make you think how Oakley designers came up with the idea to create each piece of art that they do. Also if I got one of the original sketches, I would frame it and keep it on my desk so that I could be inspired when drawing my fOakley designs. I wish I worked for them.

Awesome boxers...I was never a boxer guy until I tried Oakley's.... now I'm hooked. Currently have about 4-5 various pair and planning on getting a few more.

Color: Light Grey
It's dressy, but has skulls. For anyone who wants to look semi-professional, but still keep their personality, these are the shirts to get. I wear them to work, and also when I go out. Highly recommended.

the black contrast is a lot better. cool

Color: Sheet Metal

Nice and subtle way to "O"- cessorize at work. I especially like the d-ring. It's great to hang a jump drive or even a pen from. I also like the breakaway feature. It keeps the safety Nazis at work at at bay (we're required to have one on our lanyard...no hangings on company time!).

I think the stencil lanyard is the hands-down winner of the Oaklye lanyard selections. So while the skull lanyard is nice and all, it just seems that the quality is a notch below that of the stencil lanyard.

It finally came with the detachable safety feature, It's nice and I like it

Color: Black

I used to have one as an RN. The little loop was great for my badge or pen, etc. The little skull eventually did wear off after many shifts, but as lanyards go it was fine.

Color: Black


When the little skull on my lanyard without the clasp wore out I nabbed this one with the clasp. Came in handy in my ER RN days as if we were wearing one it was required to be a break away version. Much like moving machinery, people tend to grab at things, so the break away came in handy on those overnights!

Color:Red

Finally found one of these hats.
ive been looking for a while i dunno if they are discontinued.
great looking thick rubber patch on the front of the cap with a rubber skull in the centre.
Red looks the best although black does look pretty slick aswell.
fits great i wore it backwards when i went out tonight (looks best that way).

Color: Red

I agree with everything Alex says about this really cool hat. I, too, finally found one and it also happened to be red - which I also think is the best color with the way it contrasts with the black rubber skull patch - which is surprisingly large in person. Lastly, it doesn't look great on me forwards, though I can pull it off, but backwards it looks kick-a$$. Definitely worth the money if you can still find one - in any color.

A bit surprised it seems to smilpe and yet useful.

Color: White
I really love the skull logo on the front. The icon on the back near the neck is a cool touch.

Color: Heather Grey
Got this for Christmas and its as expected for an Oakley T. Good fit, and a cool logo. It's an embossed shiney logo, so it tends to be a little thicker than a screen print. Nice shirt overall though.

black, love it, can match it eveything.

The slant are very comfortable shoe but look bulky when being worn.Feel a bit heavy as well. They sit on a shelf now. Good with baggy jeans but not much else. Also typical of all oakley kicks these run a big large I bought them in 9.5 but typically I wear a 10.

Something I've wanted for years since starting to wear Oakley only footwear. Happen to get a pair, brand new. Black in colour, sort of crinkle leather with gum like colour sole. Not a real fan of the style of leather however. Also ones i have are size 11 not my usual 12. Just fit, bit tight however. If i could get another pair, it would be the Oatmeal colour.

Saying that, they are comfy, nice to look at, got nice grip levels too.

Nice lens to look through but not very special to look at... Slate iridium is kind of a silvery-black or shiny grey. The mirror is pretty heavy, so it does hide the wearer's eyes pretty well, except in sunny conditions when the light comes in from above or behind the lens.

Even though these are very versatile lenses, I'd rather be wearing the emerald slate iridiums (which have a near identical transmission rate).

I had these on my Ichiro Juliets. But they are a boring lens.
Its basically the Grey lens with an Iridium Coating for that extra protection from the sun and the mirror look on the lens.
Boring Boring Boring. The only good thing about this lens is the Ichiro Signature on it, which is the only reason im keeping them.

yes a little dull...but i like it more than the black iridium lenses...not too dark not too light...

I agree w/ Lex and Addicted. It's the signature that makes it special, and the frame and blue socks that goes with the lens, and like the Emerald Slate, it has a heavy iridium tint (black) but it's light when looking through. Very nice for driving.

tried these on my mframe.... not too shabby.. comfortable to look through, but yeah .. kinda boring ... but still not a bad lens for all day usage... and definitely not as boring as plain old black iridium

These are cool for every day wear. They aren't that flashy so its not your typical Oakley splash. I have these on some Juliets and M Frames. Offers good protection during the day.

I have them in a Custom WBC juliet ( xmetal frame ) In my opinion they are way better then Black Iridium , they are very well balanced I agree with melg and addicted but I disagree with LEX
The signature is a bonus on these they are perfect for driving and perfect in low light condition. the mirror effect on them is awesoem even if they are very light when lookin thru them they are still more reflective then standard black Iridium , Defintily One of My favs Oakley !!!! ( I dont give a 5 cuz nothin is perfect in this world LOL )

I like these. I tend to like anything that becomes associated with Ichiro though. I like them for low-light days and in the dwindling hours of the day. The have a silvery-look that really appeals to me. It's like a Ti Iridium, but with some purpose. I was glad to see this lens make its way into the Tribal Monsterdog. I've worn these quite a bit so you can trust me.

Not a big fan of these, as they're too bright for sunny days, yet they're not a great low-light lens since there's no contrast enhancing properties. Then again, I'm accustomed to very sunny weather. These are found on many Ichiro Juliets and since he plays in rainy Seattle, these might work well there and in other cities with similar weather. Otherwise, I don't see the point.

This is my favorite lens to date. In the last 10 years, I've used +Red, Ice (2002, first variant), Black Iridium, and finally got Slate when I purchased a set of Half Jackets two years ago.

I like neutral base lenses, and I like a lens that can cope with San Francisco's changing weather. For my purposes, Slate beats everything. The lens is dark enough that I wear them even on the sunniest days, but it's light enough that I use it even on overcast days. I never thought I'd find such a perfect all-around lens, but in Slate, I have it.

My wish is for Oakley to produce more lenses like this (neutral, 23% tint), but with a different outer iridium (like the Emerald Slate, which looks nice), and for more frames. I'd love a Radar Path in slate, or a Flack Jacket in Slate.

Purchased my straight jacket with slate iridium and so far it¡¯s been great. I always wear them for driving since lens isn¡¯t dark and shows everything clear and clean. It sometimes feels you are wearing plain clear lens. You can simply wear this lens all day anywhere in almost any condition from cloudy to sunny days, indoor to outdoor. It¡¯s very comfortable to your eyes and your views.
Some can argue view can be too boring and not dark enough. You won¡¯t be able to look directly towards the sun. I notice this problem every time I drive during early morning but no problem during sunset. almost all times lens will cover your eyes seen from outside but if sunlight hits from side, your eyes will be expose through the lens.
You can simply wear this lens all day anywhere. Your eyes will not squint through this light lens during very extreme hot sunny days of New York and Virginia Beach. If black iridium is too dark for you and want something plain and light view through your sunglass, this lens will be perfect for you.

I tried these on a pair of Flak Jackets (Polished White). The lenses have basically the Light Grey base (that lets in 39% light), with a silvery iridium coating, differing from Black Iridium. You could call this Grey Iridium, cos that's what it is.

I don't know how it's done, but it actually enhances vision in low light (it was nightime but in a fairly brightly lit shopping mall where I tried this on). The silverish coating looks nice, as well, and in a sense, better-looking than B.I, which you'll have to admit, looks way too common. If you're like me (not liking too low transmission rates, want eye-blocking iridium coatings and prefer neutral tints), this could be a very functional lens for you. I might get this someday. Or maybe emerald slate iridium.

Out of the 10 different Juliet pairs I have, the polished/slate is easily the most stylish pair I own. I can wear x-metal/ruby or plasma/fire, but this combination always attracts more looks, and is also a great pair to wear in pretty much any situation! It's virtually an all-silver combination (with the polished frames) and was worth every penny I paid! Superb!!

Slate offers excellent protection for both medium and bright conditions, and also provides a great mirrored finish to obsure the wearer's eyes from the outside world. Semi-chrome in color but not too flashy, these lenses look great with nearly every frame color.

I use these on Mframes for outdoor shooting. They are perfect for both sunny and overcast conditions.

My favorite Oakley Lens. All other lenses seem to be too dark, and when the sun goes behind a cloud I always used to have to take the glasses away from my eyes. I love these because looking through them looks brighter and more natural (but comfortable) without being too dark and depressing. I don't like when the world seems too dark all of the time. These are the perfect compromise between experiencing vibrant sunlight, and soothing shade.

I have these on Zeros. I can't say that I'm impressed. I'm sure I would like it more on a larger lens so I wouldn't get ambient light from all directions. It's really just a lighter Black Iridium.

Very stylish, not exactly a Chrome lens but close enough. They are like very reflective black lenses with a neutral tint. The neutral tint allows them to be worn in moderate lighting conditions. But really Sunny conditions might be too much for these lenses.

The Slate Iridium Path lens came stock on my Radar Path (09-740J). They look good and has a nice subtle iridium finish to the lens. Perfect for not so bright days, but still usable on bright days too!

Used on the Zeros,and is similar to brush except more prominent Thicker veins running throught it.
Retro cool.

As Lee said, the bands are bolder and further apart as opposed to the evenly spaced thin lines in Brush.

I was 15 when these were available back in 1989 and I had spent all my cash on a pair of Razor Blades just months before the Slit lens Glasses came out. I used to sweat the Slit lens Glasses while shopping in the mall,with the alluring look of the fire irridium piercing through the clear plastic box.So by the time I could finally afford them,they were gone,and the Mumbo´s came out.So now that I´m 32 and have collected all the slit lens colors off E-bay,I get that ear to ear smile like a 15 yr old kid who just got something he really wanted,when I look at my neon orange Oakley Blades with fire irridium Slit lens, stuffed in the Slit lens box.So for me it´s all about the memeories.The box itself;however, it made of cheap breakable material.But it dose present and preserve the glasses within well.

Lens: Violet iridium

much smaller than the other two lenses and in my opinion too small for me but others may like it

Lens: Violet Iridium

"The 3rd member of the Blades system" as the box says,and in my opinion the coolest style.
Quite a lot smaller than the regular Blade lense,and finished at the nosepiece,and had clean sharp corners instead of the smooth curved corners of the Blade,and Razor Blade.

Lens: Violet

The lense is way too small. I'm not sure what the point of these were, but it's a rare lens to find, so I snagged it. You won't see me wearing these any time soon.

Oakley had 3 different molds for the Blade years. If you look at several of the cross/main frame sections, you will see either a molded 1,2 or 3 in (3)circles. There may have been more than 3 versions, but one of them will have no patent numbers, the next two will have patent numbers, but in different spots. Now looking at the arm pieces, same thing goes. You will see no patent numbers on 1 set, the next 2 sets will have patent numbers, but in different spots. This is where the color mismatch & poor fitting come into play. The trigger arm pieces always fit poorly compared to the straight arms, because of the way Oakley molded the holes. The straight has a flat cut on it & the hole is in better alignment. The trigger arm pieces are always breaking, now you know why. I will tell you that keeping them out of the sunlight unless your wearing them, will save them from cracking. DONT PUT THEM ON YOUR DASHBOARD !

As many others have already stated, the Slit lens was just too small to provide any degree of adequate coverage. Perhaps they were geared toward the market seeking fashion over function.

Lens: grey
im the opposite to most others opinion, although smaller and less coverage than the other 2 lense shapes, i love the slit lense
squarer shape and corners ensure i love the sharpness of the look.

Lens: Violet Iridium

Amazing colour combo with the pink nosepiece!! This lens doesn´t offer too much coverage so they are pointed to a small faced man but frame is the same as Blades & Razors so they do not fit as I would like. Anyway they will set on my display

Frame: Polished Black, Matte Black, Polished Black
Lens: Prizm Daily Polarized, Violet Iridium Polarized, 24K Gold Iridium

I've now bought a couple of these and I can say they are my new favourite model. I really like Holbrooks and wore those for a few years but these have a very similar style but they fit tighter on my head which keeps them from sliding down your face. Highly recommended.

Frame: Matte Black
Lens: Violet Iridium Polarized

First thing I have to say about the frame is that other than the denim and dark amber, it looks all matte black. Unless you hold them up to a light you really can't see a difference. The frame definitely takes it's cues from the Holbrook, fits almost the same with the sliver f being a tad bit taller. As for the folding part it's all very tight and clean. The frame snaps into place when it opens and folds. The case is perfect as well, sleek and tough. I've dropped it many times and it's never popped open. The lens is good, never had violet polarized before so when I picked this up I was able to check two things off the list. Is it worth the extra money over the sliver? I'd say it is, the case and convenience of slipping them in your pocket does it for me.

Frame: Olive Ink, Gray Ink, Black Ink
Lens: Tungsten Iridium Polar, Black Polar, Fire Iridium Polar

They're super thin, the frames are slimmer than the non folding sliver.
They have spring loaded arms that fold in the middle so they fit in your pockets and into the custom fitted magnetic case, which is, honestly, one of the coolest features of the pair. While I wear a non folding Sliver as my everyday pair, the Sliver F has the same look, lighter frame and cooler case (that only fit Sliver F).

They were probably overlooked in their time like a lot of Oakley frames, but hold their own with many of the more popular models that sell better today. A really cool frame/case bundle to have in your collection.

Frame: Matte Crystal Blue
Lens: Sapphire Iridium

The main reason I bought this frame is because the color is so beautiful. When I saw it on the Latch I knew I had to have one. The round bottom also makes it look different enough from the standard Sliver which really looks like a Holbrook.

Great improvement compared to the Warwagon. Addition side handle and bottom handle makes it more practical on top of the detachable AP pack. Metal O Icon makes it really nice.on the center. Side zip pocket for airline ticket is also a great addition. Best of all, they reinforced the handles with 2 pin like buttons. A must for collector

Color:
this thing is ROCK solid. it is awesome to travel w/, you don't worry about putting a few pairs of oakleys in here. you know this thing will stand up to anything. AWESOME WHEELS, TOO.

After seeing one in the fleash I was so impressed I had to have one. But what of my warwagon - Sell it! The Ap Rolling bag is more compact and a whole lot more efficent. your not fighting your way through heaps of straps and buckles. It's very sturdy, solid zips and convienient pockets through out. It is a little to large for a carry on by about 5 cubic cm's, so I'm unsure If i'll use it flying if it must go a check in. Just when I'm driving. Overall a must have piece of Oakley Luggage - 100% for this piece.

Image top notch. Practicality easily within 80/20 rule. Durability seems good - no airport baggage mishandlers have managed to leave a mark!

Easy to identify on the carousel, Little front bag is dissappointing.

Sometimes oversized as hand luggage (cheap routes)- but 80/20 ok.

Good value man bag.

i never ever have had such a versitile luggage carrier ! i love it , but not the AP rolling bag , but the LARGE AP ROLLING BAG.
the compartments are so big , you can easily go on a three or four week trip , and change your clothes every day !! also the storage of travelling papers etc, is easy , only flaw is the front backpack, once of the case , it is not "strappable" you have to hold it in your hands.
very solid grip, and bold wheels. this is value for money !
overall quality ; very durable materials , so excellent

I have used this bag on a regular basis now for about 9 months. It has been a very good bag and I use it on almost all my business trips. The only time I don't is on single day trips when my AP Sandbag will suffice. The case is very durable and has held up well. Granted, I have always used it as carry on and only had to check it in once on a flight. Still, a very durable bag that led me to get other Oakley luggage. Their stuff is reasonably priced I think and very durable as well as practical. Someone who designed this bag thought it up very well. The top is curved and that is great for overhear storage on some planes. Since the overhead bin is curved in the back, you put the case top first and it fits in perfectly! There is grab handle at the bottom between the wheels for you to pull it out of the bin. This is nice since it helps save space for others. More importantly you don't have people stuffing their jackets or small packs in front you case to dig through during deboarding. Unfortunately the detatchable bag is not so useful.
That bag stays at home full time having only used it once. The curved zipper track makes a pain to close and the storage space is limited and odd shaped. The case looks a lot plainer without is attached but I can live with it. I instead moved the D-rings to the higher position on the case. This way I can attach either my AP Pack or the Sandbag when walking through terminals. Both can fit on my shoulders but sometimes its nice to give the back a break.
Overall, I have to give the Rolling Bag a definite thumbs up. Just don't expect much use out of the attached bag. I always have loved Oakley sine the Blade for their cool designs that incorporated neat technnology. Their stuff reminds me of being designed by a person in who demands the best and uses the latest technology. That person also has a love for technical style and gadgetry. The problem sometimes with that is the coolness and gadgetry gets in the way of practicality. Since I am kind of like that, I can't really complain. Just keep it in mind when looking at Oakleys bags and luggage. They always seem to being trying new stuff out with each successive bag. So while it hurts from a compability standpoint if you have other AP stuff for example, it's nice to see that they aren't afraid to change something if it doesn't work.

This piece of luggage is just what I needed. I'm an athlete and travel by plane about 10 times a year. It's small enough to carry-on but sturdy enough to check it. The wheels roll smooth, and can jump curbs. Zippers are very sturdy, they stayed shut packed out. A great addition to this piece of luggage is a TSA lock, you can never be too cautious nowadays.

Like its larger counterpart, this piece of luggage is very well designed. I believe this is still too big to be used as a carry on. There is a lot of room and like the larger bag, I'm a very big fan of the extra pack that can be detached on the front. It really helps when you want to be able to access things quickly. The wheels and the handle really add to how easily this luggae can be moved. Great design!

this thing is like a tardis, whether its a long weekend overseas or a 2 week break on the beach, this holds as much as i can force into it. well built, great looks, rugged. nice and smooth, plenty of handles, only thing missing in my opinion is double lockable zips on the outside compartments so you can really fill them tight and not worry about people helping themselves if it goes in the aircraft hold.

Color:Black
This is so nice of a duffel bag. Oakley has done it again. Small enough for a light travel bag yet spacious

Despite its smaller size, this bag features rugged construction, multiple storage areas, and a design that typifies Oakley's uniqueness. Both the carrying strap and shoulder strap allow for easy transportation, and feature heavy-duty stitching. Due to its aesthetics, the bag even looks great as a display item.

Great travel bag indeed.
2 end compartments one fits Shoes, side pockets big enough for tickets passports etc. Shoulder strap with FP logo.
Used daily and little signs of wear. Did lose one of the zip tags.

Color: Black

Really, for the size this is just the sweetest bag! Great for overnighters or bringing a change of clothes to work in style. Just the right amount/size of pockets. I couldn't think to ask for anything more.

Color:Black
Perfect as an Overnight or Carry On Luggage/Travel Bag. Light easy to use with some usefull pockets. Great shoulder strap.

Awesome bag. Use it every weekend. I especially like the shoe pocket. This also makes a great beach bag for the trunk. Nonetheless, it's a perfect overnight bag and I wouldn't turn it down for anything.

This bag is everything you need for a weekend trip.I have had many complements on how awsome the bag is. Too bad they discontinued it.

Color:Black

This is not a good goggle case, it has a very soft back panel so it will not protect your goggles all over. so during a big fall your goggles will be at risk.
I recommend the wisdom case as it is hard all over.

Black

like the others have said, it really is not a case but more of a bag than anything. There needs to be a moderatly hard case for protection, might as well just put them in a big zip-lock bag

Color: Black.
Good case for storage goggles. Due to the soft back the goggleband doesn't need the be tided.
I use it for my A-frame and O-frame goggles.

I am not impressed with this case. I was expecting it to be rigid on the back and zip all the way around like the eyewear Soft Vaults, but the soft, stretchy back panel only zips along the top edge. This makes squeezing goggles in and out the case somewhat of a chore. It does offer more protection than just the microbag, however, and the molded front looks cool.

Color:Black
Cute. a mini me of the real one. I got it cheap at Hong Kong. Very girly looking but I got to have anyway

Color: Black
Like it says ... a small icon pack. I was pretty surprised/impressed when I first got it for my wife that it truly was a mini-replica. Same design, pockets, zippers, stitchig. Just the shoulder straps are different. Great option for the lovely lady in your life.

Color: Red
Really cool little bag, got it for the girlfriend and it is very usefull, and I will actually feel ok holding it for her!

Love it! Its the perfect size for theme parks such as Disneyland. I put my wallet, car keys, and bottle of water in, etc...even my digital camera and its case, not to mention my precious polarized gascans when it starts to get dark. Dont have to worry bout anything falling out of my jean pockets on the rides now.

Looks can be deceiving. I based my purchasing decision on other reviews (o-review.com) and once I received the bag, I did not think it would accommodate 3 days worth of clothing. I was able to fit everything (pants, shirts, undergear, socks & shoes) with room to spare. The bag is very light, practical, durable and fits in the plane’s overhead compartment with ease. Highly recommended!!!

The bag itself is very sturdily made, the wheels, normally a weak point on some rolling bags feel rock solid and easily coped with cobbled streets, rutted pavements and generally poor road surfaces. I can comfortably fit 1 pair of shoes and have fitted 7 days worth of clothes in it previously. Obviously this comes down to what the clothes are and how well you pack it! However, I tried to fit a suit into the bag (I'm not big) and found that there was no way of getting it in without folding it over more than once, which for me was a no-no.
Internally each side of the bag is separated at the opening by two zipper'd mesh panels, each panel has a couple of handy pockets on it. The bag also has a useful detachable section that can be taken off by undoing the velcro holding it on. I've used this to carry travel doc's, ipod, a book, mobile phone and toothbrush and found it plenty roomy.

I've flown 3 times with this bag, the first time 1 used it as carry on and was able to sneak it through even though it exceeded the size limit. Since then I've only used it as checked baggage. Each time it's been checked it has come out the other end without a mark on it, a testament to it's build quality!

To summarise, if you want an Oakley carry on bag then this is not for you, however if you take lots of short (<7 day) trips and don't mind checking in soft luggage I recommend you go for it!

Un poco mas chica de lo que pense cuando la compre, es para quiza un viaje de 4 dias maximo, pero aun asi es muy buena maleta

I've had mine for almost a year. Works great and can put a ton of stuff in it. I can pack for 5 working days in this bag. My usual load is: 1 AP dopp kit 2.0 with CPAP unit inside, 1 pair of shoes, 4 pairs of socks, 4 pairs of underpants, 2 pairs of pants, 4 golf shirts, 1 Plate belt, 1 quart ziploc bag with toiletries, 4 foot of 1 inch CPAP tubing, 1 CPAP mask, medicines, and vitamins.

I have flown with this bag over 20 times in the last year and it has taken the abuse of me stuffing it into the overhead compartment or checking it plane side for those small commuter flights. The handle has held up really well and the wheels work well as well. I don't lift it up to go up or down curb and even so, the plastic "slides" on the bag that protect the wheel are still in great shape. In order to fit the overhead well, the detachable briefcase has to be detached. I'm not a big fan of Oakley back packs and such, they seem to be more style than function. However, I am 100% SOLD on using Oakley luggage. Knowing how much I abuse this bag and how well it's held up. It's a GREAT buy.

Color: Night Camo

I recently had the opportunity to try mine out on my trip to Oakley HQ for the Factory Co-Pilot event and I must say that this bag impressed my very much. I was able to fit an incredible amount of stuff inside, and I even had room left over. The bag itself is not very heavy which makes it even more convenient. Finally, this bag has so many compartments, I wouldn't know what to put in all of them. I highly recommend this bag to anyone who wants a great carry-on bag with plenty of room that's not too heavy. 5 skulls without a doubt.

The versatility of this bag is amazing. I love how the top compartment is removable. The main compartment is amazing. The dividers are a nice touch. The wheels and handle all seem quite durable. This piece of luggage will attract attention. I can't wait to take this on my first road trip.

Color: Black

The perfect case for wires and other small frames. Just the right amount of rigidity without excessive weight. When they were first released, these were called "Ballistic Cases", and they were actually less rigid than they are now. I have one of the very early ones, and it is much "squishier" than the newer ones. Also, it has a plain metal zipper tab rather than the molded plastic one with the icon that is used now.

Color: Black/Black Kevlar

Since I have several pairs of Wires, I picked up one of these to help me tell them apart without needing to open each case. Although listed as Black/Black, the Kevlar weave on this case is more of a Black/Bronze. Unlike the standard Small Soft Vaults, the Kevlar cases do not have raised icons on top.

Color: Black

When I had bought this item it was known as the Ballistic Case with a plain metal sipper as well. It's great for travel and when I want to have an extra pair with me. It's now the home for my Rx 05 and is a great case if you don't want to pay for a vault.

A decent case, but why can't Oakley include these with every pair of sunglasses? For those of us who buy to wear (and not display), a decent case is a necessity. Back to the case, it's small size is a definite plus and it does a good job of protecting your latest purchase when you throw it in your bookbag.

Great way to protect your wires. I have these for my Oakley prescriptions. The downside is that the Metal Icon's paint chips.

I give 4 Stars for the soft vault

Color: Black
Ok - this is a good all-around case, I use it for my A Wire 2.0 SH. However, the circles on the inside of the hinge are coming loose through no fault of mine, and started doing so very shortly after I bought it.

If you can, go with the Kevlar version. At any rate, this case does what it is supposed to and looks pretty good too.

Color: black
I have two of these. Didnt see the point of shelling out for an A-wire 2.0 sh and a square wire 2.0 sh without having them properly protected. I have had both of the above mentioned frames in a bag full of heavy text books, thrown them about and generally just abused them as I new they were well protected. Only gripe is the little cloth circles did come loose which exposed the zipper to the inside of your case. Didnt expect to have to do a DIY repair job on a brand new case which most other sunglass manufacturers give away FREE with their sunglasses just to be sure the case you bought to protect your glasses wasnt going to scratch the lenses.

That aside, knowing that I am fat and have sat on this case without damaging the contents makes me pretty happy with them

I have this one in plain black. It's very light but gives quite good protection for the glasses. I store my A-Wire 2.0 in there. The Oakley logo is a bit worn. but no other damage.

I like the kevlar case because it's lightweight, and because it doesn't have the huge O on it. I like the more discreet O on the zipper tab. Got it from sunglasses giant . com

Looks like Copper and Black, rather than Black/Black. It only fits wires and maybe some small frogskin class glasses, but like the other vaults, it does it's job.

Edit: found out there is a Copper/Black, so that makes three. Also picked up a Black/Silver case which is equally as nice.

The nylon case that I owned wasn't too squishy and I didn't have to worry too much about putting it into my Icon Bag with a large load of books. This is the perfect case for your day to day shades but I would upgrade to one of the vaults for protection of anything really expensive/rare. This is low key too, sometimes I get tired of pulling out the wire vault case and people making comments about how extreme it is.

Color: Black

Mis-sold one of these by SGH for a pair of Eye Jackets in the days when I didn't know so much about the O - very tight fit. The small soft vault doesn't seem to have as much sturdy protection as large and medium - it seems more 'squishy'. However, this could be because mine is an older generation Ballistic Case.

Color: black
great case for wires...offers a place to store your wires when travelling...i once fit my wiretap and choptop into it with only the microbag protecting the glasses...

Color : Black

Perfect case for storing wires and to carry along. Made of sturdy material and structure is rigid enough that you can toss it around without having to worry about your wire.

I bought one for a good price and freaking lost it. No O logo around just kevlar

I have 2 silver and black kevlar cases, and my soon-toi-be wife has the copper and black one. This case is simple, sturdy, good-looking protection. Although it won't hold a Why3, these cases are great for her C Wire RX, or my T and Sq. Wires. They also look so much cooler than the all-black case. I have also had luck fitting 2 pairs of wires in their bags into this case.

these are sweet the ultimate application of kevlar for your most expensive wires

I Only wish that they made them in larger sizes

durable, light, and kind of dressy

Perfect for when you're on go and you want to protect you're Oakley. Too bad it doen't fit X-metals. The Soft Vault is for using, a Vault is for displaying.

Lightweight and compact yet sturdy. A perfect combination. If I were to nitpick I would say most glasses only just fit and zipping it up without catching the microbag in the zipper requires some attention

I have one of the originals without the metal icon. Great for wires or smaller glasses.

Well, this is a great case. Just like the other soft Vaults, I gives the protection needed for you sunglasses.

BUT: Oakley.com stated that this one is also useable for the canteen, well watch out. The Canteen doesn't fit.

Color: Black

This is a great all round pocketable case for smaller wire frames. I have a few of them in the older style without the icon. The E wires will just barely fit, but make it in there without getting tweaked.

I have a few of these, Very practical and needed if you want to protect your Oakleys. The Oakleys are protected but they can still break inside of this. Still, it looks cool and serves it's purpose

Color: Silver Kevlar and black

Another great case for your Oakleys. The Silver Kevlar matches my T Wire 2.0's, and my A Wire Spring hinges also fit nicely. Good protection for the price.

Not too many small watches made by Oakley. But for those of you with a .5 or small Icon, this is perfect for you. In the world of cases, you definitely want whichever case will "fit like a glove".

Great for throwing my Titanium Time Bomb in my bag when popping through airport security and any other time I want to store it in my bag. Protects just like the sunglass soft vault. Doesn't fit many of my newer watches though.

I loved this idea. Oakley sandals. As soon as I saw these I had ordered a pair, but much to my dismay. They were made for big feet. So how do I describe this? I am an 8, and I had to buy a 7. My foot sat in the foot bed fine, proper length/width and all. The over the foot, strapping piece, was the problem. It was made higher than the top of my foot and my foot would bounce around in it, slid out. Not the snug fit you would expect.

Color: Tan/ Grey and Orange.
Comfy for home use but retains foot odor. The second generation has an excellent design. I would buy more

Color: Olive
Yeah, not tight fitting, they slip off and you stub your toe on poorly laid european slabs on vacation, ok for slippers around the house, and with suck a wide sole, you can hold bbq decking parties on them. don't try driving in em!

Color: Black

I found these very solid and the base hard for some reason. I bought my first gen Smokes on special but for sandles the sole is too wide and I really only wear mine indoors.

Great sandals, mine have been going for about 3 years now and just starting to show serious wear. I've used these to walk miles in around the university. Very Comfortable. I just ordered the size I usually wear. No problems, like the other reviewers for this item.

Color: Tan

Fantastic sandal. Extremely comfortable and a great look for a sandal. As mentioned before, these seem to run a size larger (my normal 12, should have gone for an 11), which is just the opposite normally for Oakley shoes.

Color: Black
Comfortable, but is hard to keep on my foot. Looks great with jeans.

Color: Yellow (1)/Grey (1)
I've currently have two pairs of these. I think they were the first generation or something because I don't see my color combo's listed here. Both have served me quite well. They have aged very well and they are quite easy to keep clean. Never had a better pair of sandals.

Finally got this on a pair of eye jackets, this is a member of the sparkle family with black gold, joker, midnight etc.
it is a light grey with silvery sparkles.
very nice and it also glitters in the sun.

This should be offered on more frames. It is very cool and would go with a lot of lens options. M Frame Smoke / Ice would be very nice indeed. I would like to see it in the Half Jackets and Splice.

Color: Black / Grey.
Great sandals, but they wear out. Now i use them only indoors.
Next time i would take one size smaller.

these were not the originals, i expected more of it , and was let down, was no match for the original. great loooks, but was not well put together, was told even bby an oakley employe that they had problems with this design.

Color: Black

Bought these on the beach at a close-out store for around $20. Lasted FOREVER, but now the "perforated" part where the O is located is starting to peal up. VERY comfortable in all conditions, sand, water, heat, indoors, etc. Loved them and now only wear them indoors since they've taken so much abuse! Would give them 5/5 but they broke down and can't say they're PERFECT, but close to it!

I have worn my pair for 5 years, they are the most comfortable slip on I have ever tryed. I wish they would bring these back my pair is about shot.

Color: black


the best sandel i have ever owned. Very comfortable and strong, i could run a mile in these

Color: Black/Blue

Of course, these are great, extremely comfortable as were the original Smokes. However, I'm not too sure why they redesigned them - they are very, very similar to the first model. That said, they're still great sandals and with the slight update in design, if you don't have a pair then these would be an excellent choice.

Colour: Sheet Metal / Aurora

Well, very very comfortable and sturdy sole construction, so they won't disintegrate. However, before the summer was over, and without being harsh on them, the silicon detailing has started to come away from the fabric a good bit. That's a disappointment, and that's why they get 3 stars.

Color: Stealth/Black

I found a clearance sale on these a couple years ago and had to try them... no regrets! These are very comfortable sandals with a supportive foot bed and grippy outsole. I have not noticed any of the pressure points or chafing that can occur with other sport sandals. The pull tab on the back has a cool reflective silver "SMOKE" print. My 2002 model has a bit more subdued styling than the current version.

Color: Cement
The 03 model I believe (previous to the ones pictured here). Bought these on sale for about half retail. Great sandals, bit of a pain to get on as the ring seems to not give too much, but this is probably done on purpose so you can be active without them flying off and hitting someone in the face. The smooth suede is great looking, the metal icon is a great touch.

Color: Red-Blk combo, Olive, Black, Cement, Gunmetal
Yes. I have 5 pairs. The 2nd Generation has a better design look wise but the 1st Gen with the pull laces is a better fit. i love these that I got 5 pairs!

Color: Big Smoke Black
Yeah, very comfy, but with an over wide sole, like the soldiers in toy story...

its a must have sandals...although break-in period is tough..

Color: Black

I've given my Smoke Rings a real bashing over the last two years - being a sailing instructor they're in and out of water constantly and on tough gravel and sand. Plus wear them constantly anyway throughout the summer everywhere. They're magic. They're still in near perfect condition. They dry out pretty quickly and give great support. Uber comfotable. I've never worn a better sandal. Simply brilliant.

Color: Cement and Navy
Only have one thing to say: THE most comfortable pair of sandals I've EVER worn.

Color: cement/navy
Not a big sandle guy but these are great for the pool/beach/lake whatever - i'm not a fan of shoe laces either and love the fit of these - very secure!

colour: cement
These are the best sandals I have ever owned. Didn't like the stretchy ring at the back, but now prefer this to velcro. The sandals fit snug and you can do high intensity activities in them. They are very comfortable and can even be worn in the water. They dry fast and have excellent grip. I will only wear oakley sandals from now on.

Color : Black

This is a very comfortable pair of sandals. I been using sandals for a long time and when I tested this one, I'm really surprised. I never thought that oakley could produced such a fine pair like this.

Black

Tough pair of footwear. Very good for outdoor water activity, especially in rivers or tide conditions that can typically peel off other sandals. Dry out quickly and clean up easily

Gotta love the changes the Smoke Rings have gone through... now lighter in weight, and thinner upper material which makes it easier to slip in and out of. The lip on the perimeter of the sandal still can be irritating if you're not wearing the size that perfectly fits.

very nice sandals nice fit and confort

This has really good support around the ankle, the instep is really comfortable and even though they fit really snugly around the top of the foot they never feel constrictive. The padding on the sole is more than sufficient and the anatomical footbed supports the arch of the foot unlike any other sandal I've ever worn, a detail which is often overlooked is the detailing lending a build quality thats often overlooked, like a real metal icon giving the sandal a touch of the exotic and the reflective text on the strap at the back on the sandal itself. A well built sandal that you know will be with you on any long haul trek down the beach.

When I first saw this shoes in a picture, I was like WOW. but looking from different angles. The shoe doesn't seem right. Oakley should have tweaked it a little then it would be perfect

I've gave this a 4 out of 5 rating, due to being a new shoe in my collection. Its comfy, grippy. Only issue is, .5 size to small, only size i could get!. Besides that, a great shoe.

White/grey colour

Wore these on a Honeymoon Vacay to Jamaica. On our first day I had some sort of strange reaction on the top of my feet. Initially thought it was sunburn but the following day it was apparent the area on my feet affected was the areas in contact with the upper of the sandal. I investigated this when I got back with Associates at a local O-Store and they'd heard similar stories so the going theory was that sunscreen and the anti-microbial treatment created a reaction of which is yet undetermined. Otherwise they were a solid choice for wet/dry, comfort and durability.

A bit different than the camo's we're used to today, the Snow Jungle frame is made up of jagged strips of black on white, rather than patches. It's a nice addition to the collection if you can get one. This pattern was kept on the Goggles, but the name was changed to White Camo, not to be confused with O Matter White Camo which is not the same.

got this on my trenchcoats, looks way cooler than all the other versions of snow/white camo. the version on the goggle is similar but not quite the same.
i just wish they would bring this camo pattern back in some other colours. it is a matte finish but glossier than the camo found on monsterdogs.

I usually hate camo colors for their poser qualities but this color rocks that on Trenchcoat as the pattern is big and so are the frames

This is a cool pattern that we're not used to seeing - sort of like a military colorway for cold weather conditions, and its exclusivity alone gives it great appeal. I've seen a few Pro M Frames and Half Jacket frames in these, and would love to add those to my personal collection.

I love this colorway. It is the must-have for the Trenchcoat, much like the 24k for the XX and the X-metal/Ruby for the Juliet. It is iconic, unique, and screams Oakley.

Color:Black
I think I would like the Olive or the Sheet Metal color better but as far as construction is concern...this bag is the bomb! Very similar looking as the Wet/ Dry Pack yet so different. This bag is the ultimate snowboarders bag especially it can carry snowboards!

Color:Sheet Metal
I just bought it 2 days ago and I’m still in shock. When I first saw it on the web page I knew right there I had to have it. In real life it looks even better, it has tons of pockets and features, the built quality is just great and it’s SO! comfortable. I also use it as a everyday bag, because you can hide in special pockets all the straps you can’t use all the time. I don’t think anyone will be disappointed. It’s just …all that. I love it.

Color: Black

I used this every day for a week whilst boarding in the alps.

Two gripes:

- firstly the waist strap kept coming loose. Not a major problem but a pain.
- secondly one day whilst going thorugh a snowstorm I found out that not all of the pockets are waterproof. Fortunately it was only the pocket I was keeping snacks in, but if id had a ski pass in there I would be pretty sick.

Oakley would do well to supply 'instructions' with a bag like this. There are so many pockets, linings and straps wasnt sure what was what @ first and it took me about 2 days to work out the vertical board strapping system.

All that aside, for snowboarding it is probably the most technical bag on the market and it does what its made for.

If however Id paid full price and had leaking pockets id be pretty miffed.

For the guys asking about it as a day pack, its not designed for that and wouldnt be advisable. Its heavy, the zips can be a pain to get open & shut (soppesedly the waterproofing!!) and compared to the other oakley back-packs doesnt hold as much (and you could end up losing stuff in there if you forget what compartment you put it in!)

awesome looking bag, but frankly, it is so heavy. This bag empty weighs quite a bit with the internal plastic frame. I decided not to use this while snowboarding because it would be too much of a burden. I use it in school during winter as the padding is really nice, and it can hold quite a bit.

The bag is excellent except for its major flaw: tooo heavy.

I'm just saying it as it is.

COLOR:Olive Green

First thing I noticed about this pack is how much of a pain it is to open/close the zippers (side of bag).Definitely a sport specific type of pack.For everyday use (school or gym) not a good idea since you have to unsnap several clasp just to get to the main compartment.
Dimension wise its real close to an Icon but I really doubt that this could hold as much due to the padding.I got it mainly because its different and Vault store got them for half price.

This is a cool looking bag with really cool ideas if you snowboard. I wouldn't recommend using it if you aren't using it for its true function. If you want a bag for everyday use just get the wet/dry pack or the icon.

Color:
This is just to answer Mike's question. First of all, make sure this is authentic, I have seen fake ones floating around Ebay. secondly, make sure you got the snowpack and not the wet/dry pack because they look so similar. and finally if you meet all criteria the then it should be the back padding that splits open into 2 so you can strap down a snowboard into it

Color: black

Looks: One of the coolest oakley backpack at that time. Just looked aboslutely gorgeous hanging on the wall in the O store or on ur back. Well-constructed, cool zipper taps.
Functionality: So many bells and whistles, I feel it needs an instruction manual. Straps buckles zips and compartments galore. The snowboard holder was a cool touch.
Minus points: The weight! Weighs a tonne even when empty. One of the heaviest backpacks I've ever owned.

All in all, a beautiful piece of oakley design. A must-have backpack for oakley fans along with the kitchen sink icon pack and toolbox.

this lens can also be used for motocross when the weatherconditions are very cold and humid. you cannot mount a roll-off onto it , but tear-offs are no problem. also good for indoor-supercross

First pair of Oakley RX and I am quite impressed. The brushed brown colour, thick to thin temple detail, and subtle "O" logo on the sides, combine to make a great looking frame. That says a lot considering I've worn rimless the last few years and every full frame I've tried on just looked out of place until I tried these. Says even more when I work in a dispensary that has 1200 frames out front I could have had for free but STILL ordered these.

The only downside? They are heavy! I opted for normal CR39 lenses from my dispensary since I'm just correcting a slight-moderate astigmatism, but the front digs into my nose unless I tighten the temples to dig into my head. And if they don't dig into your head the relatively sharp bottom side of the temples pad digs into your ear. Three of the other opticians have had a go at it and it's livable now, but I'll probably cut a set of lenses out of poly just to save weight where I can.

So the verdict is a great frame, highly recommended, just plan on going back a few times for tweaking the adjustments when you find out an hour later your ear is coming off.

Frame: Brushed Chrome
Lens: Clear

This is my 4th Oakley RX glasses, and I'm particularly pleased with the design. My previous pair was the Wiretap in Silver/Clear. and I was looking for a pair with a sophisticated, corporate cutting-edge look. The Socket 2.0 definitely fits this description.

Frame: Toast/Matte Black
Lens: Clear

Just picked up my pair of socket 2.0's today. As soon as I saw them I knew I had to have them. If I have a complaint its that the "thick to thin" styling is borderline too thick and that the straight behind the ears style is awkward when you wear hats (same with my A-Wires). That said, they look/feel like they could survive a war zone... very well made and very modern but stylish! Also very comfortable.

Also, Oakley really went all out on the included accessories. You get the standard Oakley cleaning bag AND you get the metal vault which retails for $25.00 by itself.

Good job Oakley! With my intense love of both your sunglasses and Rx glasses, you will probably have a customer for life.

Frame: pewter/blue
Lens: clear

Look good but heavy frames -- not overly comfortable.
The nose pads wore down within the first few months so I had to replace them. We'll see how they hold up.

Frame: Socket 2.0 black chrome
Lens:

these things get bent up so very easily. i am on my second set and then they got a huge chip in them.
so... i am going to go buy another set to fit my lenses.
i am very disappointed in the quality of these particular frames. quality control seems to be lack luster as these frames chip far easier than other Oakley frames i have had in the past.
i have the black chrome finish.

Frame: Socket 4.0 Pewter/Matte Black
Lens: Oakley RX Clear A/R

My second pair of Oakley RX glasses, these are much heavier than the previous ones (Why 3s), yet thanks to the three point fit, they are just as comfortable to wear, and have no pressure points. The frames look good, with cool sculpting and finish, and seem very durable. All-round vision is as good as you will ever get with a full-rimmed opthamlmic frame, and the Oakley lenses really are worth the money in terms of visual acuity and cutting out glare. Recommended, but as always try them to check they fit your face shape first!

...

Frame: Socket 4.0 Matte Black / Light
Lens: Clear

Beautiful frame. Fits perfectly my medium face. Bigger than the Straight Line 4.0 that I've worn before. The ear stems look a little aggressive, but I give them 5 points. I where them almost all day, very comfortable.

Frame: Socket 4.0 Polished Brown
Lens: Clear Rx A/R

This is my third pair of Oakley Rx frames. Each pair get better. I had the Chop Top 4.0 & Bottle Rocket 4.0. The temples are plain compared to the Bottle Rocket and the bridge is thicker. Fits round faces very well. As mentioned in the previous review, this is a more aggressive frame.

Frame: Socket 4.0 Pewter/Matte Black
Lens: Transition RX

My Firt pair of Oakley and i love it very much. Fit nicely around the head and extremely comfortable. Abit on the heavy side but the frame look nice and cover a full vision as compare to Socket 2.0.

Frame: Olive/Polished Chrome 53o18
Lens: Clear A/R

Got these at Lens Crafters in 2008. I have been overall pleased but they are not as tough as my O-wires. I have bent the hinges but Lens Crafters fixed them. They are stiff and a little heavy but stay on my face great and give a great field of view. The biggest issue I have with Oakley RX is a lot of their glasses have flimsy ear socks. These lasted two years and then started to split. My O-wires where worse, only lasting about a year but if you talk to Oakley Customer Service they will send you your first replacement free otherwise its 6$. Not bad but I would figure I can full on stomp on these and not break the frame why put such flimsy Earsocks/Temple covers on them?

Does anyone have a link on where to buy ear sock replacement the Matte Black/Light SKU 12-012? Thank you.

Frame: Soft Spike - Lens 4
Lens: Clear (Non Oakley)

Really best oakley RX frames I have ever owned.
Might be a bit feminine, but really light and earsocks
allowed a lot bending. It helped a lot when putting these to motorcycle helmet or under the cap or hat.

Frame: Olive
Lens: Clear RX (Oakley)
Love the look, but they don't fit all that tight (used to my O2's), and the lenses ended up snapping where the ear stem bolts on. Planning on getting the lenses replaced eventually.

Frame: Cherry on Top
Lens: Grey

The cherry on top frame color is pretty cool. They had these at a Vault I went to but with grey lenses. They were converted sunglasses. These did not fit my big head at all. I would say they are better for smaller heads. The design is very nice and the frame is very lightweight.

Frame: Red Tortoise
Lens: Grey

My wife got these at a Vault. They took the clear lens and put grey lenses in them. Its a really cool simple design. I wouldn't recommend it for people with big heads though as they will not fit at all. Very light weight and stylish.

A box for the vault? Shame, I've never gotten one of these, I feel jipped.

I've also got one of these. But on mine it still says "Ballistic Case"! I'm glad I haven't thrown that away.

Color:Black

The only sensible way to store Racing jackets cos they dont bend.
they keep them nice and safe with the large micro bag too,
the case is very big so not very suitable for carrying around with you but fine for traveling.

A very very big case, very bad for carrying around.. Useful only to store the eyewear at home, but who needs a protective case at home??

I converted mine to fit 2 pairs of glasses in it and they are well cushioned all around. I added more foam and now I get to take 2 pairs with me daily for day and night. the box being that its a soft box, still is pretty sturdy and can definitely protect ur precious babies in it

The case is very big and only useful for glasses that do not fold, like (Pro) M-Frame, Racing Jackets and Water Jackets. Other pairs just won't fit properly, but for those it's the perfect way for transportation.
I myself changed the foam on the inside to create a case for three different pairs so that I do not need several cases when I go on a vacation or something. Very easy to do and very useful to have!

Color: White/Red

I didn't like the color combo, but I love the shoes. They're an excellent fit for my weird feet. I've had them now for about 5 months and wear them more than a lot of my other shoes. These are the pair that got me going on Oakley shoes.

Color: Grey / Brown
Not the most comfortable of Oakleys shoes, you really need to wear these loose or else they rub like crazy. Once they're worn in after a month of so they get a bit better. They come with 2 pairs of laces to match both colours on the shoes which is a pretty nice touch.

i have the brown from the old generation, They are awesome, my favorite pair of shoes for a long time. I have had them over two year, worn them everyday, walked all around europe in them, and they are still not worn out. Great pair of shoes.

Color: Black/Black

Excellent shoes. Very stylish. Comfortable. Easy to get on and off.

These are fairly durable and nicely padded. Can be a little slick on ice but good traction on most surfaces.

a really long lasting pair

Awesome sports type shoe for me... bmx, skateboarding, etc... I love these shoes... Light & Very durable.....

Got a pair of these. Were great when wearing them at first but the grip level just not enough. Still have these, haven't worn them in a few years however.

Got two pair, Grey/Navy and black/gum.
The grey and navy, size US12, seemed to small for me. Had nice grip, nice for anything casual or sports like skate boarding. The inner lining went on them however, probably over worn!

So got another pair, US13 in black and gum colour. Seems heaps better. Also seems better than my old grey and navy ones!. They are a bulky shoe but that's because has plenty of padding. Makes the foot very comfy

A really great small bag to use for work. Very light and it actually can fit quite a bit in it. A must have if you like smaller bags!

Frame: Red Tortoise
Lens: g20

The frames are plastic...enough said on the frame. Never was a big fan of the plastics lines even though I have a few. Got this for the GF b/c I need her to understand my addiction to Oakleys. Overall, the style is pretty unisex maybe a little more toward the feminine side. I can see guys pull this off if they are the fashionable type.
The lense, like all Oakley, is great. I do like the clarity of these lenses even tough I like mine a touch darker.
The overall fit and finish is clean but styling is ho-hum. It's cool though because the planned wearer is pretty conservative is dress. The justification for these high prices must be the nice hardcase and textured sock. Really nice touch, Oakley. You think you'd be nice enough to do that for us guys in the $130 level? Why does only my $300 glasses come with cases???

Frame: Red Tortoise
Lens: G40 Black Gradient

Bought a Custom pair for the wife, and she LOVES'em. She gets mad comments anytime she's out with them on. Says they are very comfortable, even when she is working out/running. She says despite the lack of unobtainium they don't slip or slide around, granted she has a small face and these are a smallish frame. The white microbag and case also make headlines.

Frame: Crystal Pink
Lens: G20 Black Iridium

Wife also has these, nabbed them at the O-Store in the Mall of America. Not a common in-store style of Speechless (or so we were told). Very unique, and ultra pink. She likes them for all activities, mostly driving---the G20 seems to be a good lens for her in many light conditions. She gets a LOT of comments from other women, and I believe it to be from the pink on pink frame and lens combination.

When the Spider-man costume was created the designer had no idea how to handle the white lenses of the mask so they, like in X-Men, turned to Oakley for help. The White lenses in the mask were created by none other and were held in place by the black framing around the eyes and where attached to a helmet so that Toby and all the stunt men would have the same shape head. The fabric was then pulled over it. No word that Oakley had created the helmet system itself or the Green Goblins lenses.

You can also catch Flash in Black Frogskins in a scene or two.

Over the Top is also used when the (Goblin) Glider is first shown being tested at Oscorp Labs. They had also been slightly modified to fit the look of the tech being used.

it would've been interesting if Oakley released a limited edition White Iridium lenses to coincide with the movie like Ruby Iridium with X-Men... oh well.

Frame:pewter
Lens: blk irid polarized
Upon first seeing and trying on these frames at my local O store I knew I had to have them.However after now owning them for a few weeks I am having some serious regrets about shelling out the cash for these.For me the frame is a bit too heavy and uncomfortable for wear beyond a couple hours. Though they are very secure, the earstems and nosepads pinch significantly on my medium sized face. I have also experienced annoying amounts of light entering through the sides and nose opening (which no adjustment can fix). It is not very bothersome in normal light conditions but is quite an annoyance on my morning drive in the glaring sun. For this reason i have gone back to my gascans for this purpose. All in all these glasses are very sturdy and killer looking however they are far too uncomfortable and dont provide the coverage i was looking for.

Frame:Light/Matte Black
Lens:Titanium Iridium/Grey

These guys are mean. These are my "sophisticated look" glasses. They are my favorite out of the Wire collection, maybe because they seem to be the only ones that fit my fat face. The fit is just a hair tight but not to a point where I can't wear them. I can describe it as a good snug fit. I could last all day with these on. They do leave a small imprint on your nose. I help that by raising them upward and gently placing them back on my nose. Once i do that, it won't leave big imprints. The weight isnt too much of a problem. You can feel them all day but its all good. Field of vision is wide not as much as maybe the hijinx but its just enough to get the job done. Titanium Iridium makes averything brighter/Brown butatthe same time is as dark as Black Iridium. Wierd hu? Grey lens Seems to be turning ever so slightly blue on me. They have been used many times. I wear grey when there isnt too much sun.

Frame: Ti
Lens: Ti
As good a pair of sunglasses as you could expect to find. The frame is feather-light and the Ti Iridium is one of the best lenses Oakley has ever released. The Spike is a fashion-forward design and if that's what you like, the Ti Spike is simply the best Spike they make.

Frame: Light
Lens: Titanium
Love 'em. Not sure how these can seem cheap to some people. I find the fit and finish up to Oakley standards. I have let a few people try them on and they seem to look great on a variety of faces. I can tell that my wife has her eye on mine so I might have to snag her a pair of her own very soon. I will definitely be getting a few more pairs of these. They are fashionable, but they are edgy too.

Frame: Matte black
Lens: dark grey
Sweet pair of glasses, have a good solid feel to them. After getting these made me start wanting a pair of gascans due to the simular shaping.

Frame: Titanium
Lens: Titanium Iridium

Unlike most people, I felt like the non Ti Spikes were pretty light weight. When I tried these Ti frames on I was blown away. They are extremely light weight to wear, I'm talking feather weight here. It really added to the comfort of the frame. The Ti iridium is also an awesome lens to have. Eye coverage is excellent as well. The high price for these Ti Spikes is well worth it.

Frame: Light
Lens: Titanium

Outstanding glasses right here. I cant get enough of these. I used them to shoot trap and they were fantastic, I used them to drive at dusk and they were fantastic, and I used them during the bright day and they were fantastic. Great coverege, even peripheral. Only 2 problems. 1. It sat too high on my nose when I first got them, but after moving the nose-pieces, they fit like a dream. and 2. They pinch a little too hard on my head at the end of the earstem, cause a small pain after about 5 hours of wearing. I took them off for about 5 minutes and put them back on and I was fine. Get a pair, youll love them.

Frame: Pewter
Lens:- Black Iridium Polarized
Awesome glasses! Excellent lens quality and they look awesome.Paid £160 from ten-eighty for them.When I first put them on after about 3 hours the arms hurt the sides of my head but fitted me like a glove! I had to take them off for a few minutes and put them on again and they were fine. The arms loosened up in time but now both the fangs of both ear stems touch both lenses when folded and the right hand arm seems bent. The fang of the right hand ear stem touches the top of the middle of the left lens and this has caused a hairline marking at the top middle part edge of the lens! The stems flap around now has if loose. Has anyone come across this problem. I cant imagine that both stems should touch the lenses when the arms are folded and I cant imagine that both the arms should flap loosely.Is this normal? I purchased these from ten-eighty and they said that I could send them back to Oakley and if they do nothing then ten-eighty said they would fully reimburse me so I have no worries. I will do this around November time when I don't need them so much but aprt from that they are amazing glasses.

Frame: Matte Black
Lens: Grey

This is my first pair of Oakleys and overall I am fairly satisfied. I'm asian and they fit fairly well although I would recommend the titanium frame as I do find these glasses a tad heavy (however, I do admit that I am not sure how much lighter the titanium frames ar compared to the C-5 alloy.) I am very picky when it comes to choosing glasses because I am not flashy and I like wraps. The style provides ample coverage from the sun. The glasses are solid and my friends have commented on how sturdy they feel.

Even though I find the frame a bit heavy, I made the choice to get them and have no regrets - except that I wanted the polarized lens....:)

Frame: Black Chrome
Lens: Brown-Clear Gradient
Phenomenal glasses. Full marks for style and impact. The Black Chrome frame is complimented by the very classy gradient lens that frames the wearer's eyes. I would say this is my favorite combo currently available. The fit is great and they get a lot of attention.

Frame: Light
Lens: Titanium Iridium

Finally, a pair of sunglasses that combine the latest fashion trends with the durability and quality of Oakley. Great curve aroudn the face and strong durable hinges. Perfect glasses!

Frame: Light
Lens: Titanium
Although I freely admit that the front-view styling is a bit bland, the overall look is great for the Spike. The earstems are awesome, the accents aroud the icon are great touches. Comfortable fit and great field of vision. The difference-maker for me on the Spike is getting an Iridium lens ... makes it much better since the lens is pretty large.

Frame:Polished Black
Lens:VR28 Black Iridium Polarized

easily one of the most gorgeous pair of oakleys in years but it devastates me to say i cant wear these. they look great on me but feel so heavy and pinch my nose and the back of my head, i have tried bending the earstems out but it hasnt made alot of difference. im gonna try and have them adjusted at the front. it is such a shame cos i love the look of them.
