    Can go wrong with Oakleys.

    POLARIZED GASCAN FTW!! I couldn't find no good deal so I just picked them up from Dick's sporting goods.

      I have a pair of matte FLAK's, and a pair of Colorado Rockies FLAK's (they have purple rubber, and will never be opened, because I wont be caught dead wearing them). Along with a pair of matte Straight's and a back up pair of glossy black Straights. They are all polorized, and the Army got them for me.

      Of course I have 3-4 of the army M frames.
      I'm just the opposite, most of the plastic frames look like shit on me, but I've got several of their metal frames that look fine. Whisker, Square Whisker, and Nanowire 2.0.

      I was really starting to enjoy the Straight Jacket's and Scalpels, until they got chewed up. It's starting to get warm again though, so I have a feeling that I'll be buying a new pair of Scalpels soon if they dont' warranty them.

        The term "ballistic" means something to some of us.





        Exactly. They arent priced the way they are for nothing. Oakleys are the Highest quality glasses ive owned, I have several other brands from gas stations and American Eagle. Even after my dog chewed up my M frames, the lens was still in one piece minus teeth pocks. Oakley's are ANSI (spell?) certified and used by the military, Feds, police (me), fire for a reason. They're the best imo!
        (harrison, that that dude in the camo is actually wearing Wiley X SG1's. Another great brand btw!)

          Today, it was between the Flak's or the Crosshair 2.0's... Ill be getting a set of matte black crosshair 2.0's with fire lens very soon.

I would drop any of these and feel confident that they would break, lens pop out, or lens shatter. Oakley's are ANSI (spell?) certified and used by the military, Feds, police (me), fire for a reason.

            The lenses sure are prone to scratches though.

            Is there a way for non-military to get that hook up, I wouldn't mind the matte black at all.

                I really have to try REALLY hard to scratch my hydrophonic lens'. Last pair I mucked up were my last Flaks. I had put them in a side pocket of my patrol bag (normally take em off at dusk and put them in my truck but was busy), and later tried putting my Streamlight XL20 flashlight in the same pocket... I remember shoving it in there and thinking "WTF is wrong with this pocket!" Oh well.

                I would assume if someone had an account and wouldnt mind you buying through them. Matte black is really nice imo. and you cant beat the 50% off price (ex. matte blk Flaks $70.)

                  Actually it doesnt have to be military. As long as there Fire/EMS, Military, Police, Fed; they can open an account with the correct creditionals. So, if you have any friends that are any of those careers, ask em!

                    That's kinda what I assumed, getting shot at in the dessert get's you all the perks.

                        damn i just looked on oakleys website and the cheapest pair they had, that i would wear, were $80!

                        glad i just got a pair of ray ban aviators(gold too!) for a 12pk of beer. which of course i drank a few...

                        i only wear them when i am driving, other than that they just sit there in the car. if it's sunny out and if i remember i will wear them but mostly just sit in the car

                          I'm sure that somebody has already said this, but unless you've owned a pair of Oakleys you wouldn't understand. Seriously, the lenses are SOOOOO much clearer than cheap sunglasses. Their polarized lenses are the shit. Pretty much always the perfect amount of shade. It's literally like watching a blu-ray VS a DVD.

                            I get the basic M Frames, matte black, but with the smaller, tapered lens. They are comfortable, clear, durable and provide adequate protection. I get them for roughly $60 through US Standard Issue (military discount). My eyes are worth more than that.

                            I've been wearing Oakleys since high school (yes, they had them back then), and I don't think I'll wear anything else until these either fail me or something proves better all around.
