Who else has a pair of these bad boys?

SportRx love em !!!

[@herbcheng28]

SportRx me

[@brettsreeftank3079]

SportRx I did. They fell from 2 foot and landed on thick Carpet and the cheap lens shattered. Worst $170 I’ve spent.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Dang! From two feet and on thick carpet, for their lens to shatter (like glass?) is some kind of anomaly! Definitely, reach out to Oakley; they will help you. I have never seen their lens material shatter. I would have thought it impossible, so the fact that they did should be proof enough that they will replace them immediately.

[@brettsreeftank3079]

SportRx that’s what I was told. I didn’t watch it happen but that is what I was told. It could have been smashed I guess but it didn’t look like it. It’s a few years old already

[@raulsegovia8587]

The impact test is pretty accurate. I was using a weed eater and a rock the size of a quarter hit my lens on my flak 2.0 and it didn’t shatter. It simply left a small dent on my lens. Could of lost an eye or damaged it pretty bad.

[@xKrispyx]

I've used my Flak Jacket XLJ's as "safety glasses" in a pinch. Wouldn't have done that with any other brand of "sunglasses"...

[@mybluebelly]

I shot a 177 airgun pellet at a pair of $10 sunglasses. There was a small dent in the lens but that`s it. So your theory about shatter resistance only in expensive glasses is very wrong. Plexiglass is not very expensive.

[@DrFrankenschtein]

It's really cool to get an inside look at Oakley's operation(s), and it's even cooler to get a better understanding of what your money goes towards. All of this just makes me love Oakley even more!

[@starfox4919]

I can attest to this. I've had dirt, rocks and debris launched at my eyes. While wearing Oakley sunglasses, never had an injury. Sure, they are expensive, but I would rather pay for sunglasses than have to pay for eye surgery. I wear Holbrook and Radar EV frames. The polarized lenses are great, especially if you get prizm built in.

[@sportrxeyewear]

You are 100% correct David! People will pay the money for the bike, shoes, helmet, but not protect their eyes. Take it from David, it's worth paying the extra buck especially for some PRIZM lenses.

[@larsgarret2817]

I did a factory tour at this oakley facility 25 years ago and they showed us this testing part! Oakley os definitely superior

[@ln6964]

13 years ago when I was in high school, I bought a pair of 1st Gen Half Jackets because I thought they looked cool. I really didn't have much knowledge on Oakley at the time. Well, some time later they actually saved my eyesight. A friend of mine accidently discharged a paintball gun he had just bought and the round went straight towards my face. The Half Jackets deflected it onto the floor and instead of a hosptial visit, I ended up with a slight headache and a cool story to tell. It since made me a very strong believer in the effectiveness of Oakley Sunglasses.

[@matthewduggan1378]

Luxottica sucks though

[@sherwinvmercado001]

I saw this add and bought another one "radarlock", I now will own like four pairs. Phenomenal in every aspect!!! Price, quality, durability, style...im addicted to them!

I wish I could say the same. Oakley’s scratch so easy for me

[@johntrussell7228]

Incredible!! I have several pairs of Oakley sunglasses as a cyclist and this makes me feel even more safe. I love that Oakley even cares this much about design and engineering. :)

[@realKushy17]

They blur out the glasses because they're owned by the same giant company as Oakley. #Luxottica oops spilled the beans.

[@natewilson84675]

Actually luxottica bought them out because Oakley refused to sell through them but luxottica owns glass hut and about 97% of eye wear stores so it put oakley in a bind where they had no choice but to be bought out. The only good thing is that oakley still designs all their own stuff so luxottica can't wash the quality down with inferior products

[@emeza116]

Nathan Wilson sure they can. the supplies they now use are of cheaper Chinese quality. i know

[@cosplaychris4489]

Yeah, I gotta disagree. I sell Oakleys and a lot of Luxottica products through my job. Also we sell non Luxottica stuff. The Lux stuff is pretty much garbage. Mostly made in China "even Oakley now, check out there avoidance of stating it under here: www.oakley.com/en/support/faq (CAN OAKLEY EYEWEAR BE STAMPED WITH A MARKING OTHER THAN "MADE IN THE U.S.A.?") Iv'e also seen the old "Made in USA" stuff, and its far better quality. The only thing that didn't take a huge hit is the lens quality. The frames are junk though.

[@emeza116]

Yeah i worked at oakley hq for 2 years here in foothill ranch. The quality decreased because the materials they use are of cheaper Chinese quality. I coated over 40000 lenses and inspected over 5000 frames so thats how i was able to know .

[@charkee167]

[@carlblaskowitz7817]

I tried many vendors, finally chose Oakley for optical clarity and fantastic glare reduction. I always recomended them to others for optical quality reasons, I had no idea they are so strong.

Aside from its design, what I really like about Oakley is their impact protection

So, whoever you were going to have a severe road race with saw your glasses and decided it wasn't worth it? What's the story? Lol

[@jrh8393]

[@alwaisman8501]

I am a huge Oakley fan, but their polarized lenses are disposable.

[@NM-xg7kd]

Wow. Oakleys were the best sunglasses I ever had. I ran over them accidentally. I've had some cheap pairs since then. Going back to oakleys for sure after this.

[@cyclone1513]

I started buying Oakley's when I used to mow yards. The debris (pebbles, sticks) from mowing and weadeating would sometimes come back at my eyes and Oakley's would stop them. Been buying them ever since

[@sportrxeyewear]

You gotta love how the proof is in the puddin', as they say!

[@FullNietzsche]

Cheap polycarbonate lenses on budget glasses would do the same. But really if you're doing something like mowing lawns you would be better to use safety glasses rather than risk scratching your expensive Oakleys, but maybe you have money to burn. You bought Oakleys so maybe you do.

[@koriko88]

While I like Oakley sunglasses (I've lost 5 pairs and just bought an M2 XL), this is just a 14 minute, 40 second commercial which Sportrx decided to participate in. It seems a little questionable to have these "tests" conducted by an Oakley marketing rep at the Oakley lab. That's not a credible test of anything, other than Oakley's ability at marketing its own products. You should take a collection of Oakleys to an independent optics lab and have them tell you what variables are really important, and then test them.

[@danielhesse8600]

William Dukane You can't dispute an argument or information based simply upon who it came from. You can justify questioning based on it, but nothing is refuted by simply saying who it came from. Even the most habitual liar has the potential to tell the truth, you cannot, and should not disregard something someone says, simply because of who they are.

[@Android602715]

Daniel Hestopher especially if you are WATCHING them go through the tests instead of just showing you results or pictures. Idk how you can refute any of what they did, besides maybe the competitors weren't as bad a quality

[@darthphysique3094]

0:25-0:46 Instead of buying more Oakleys after losing five- go buy some hearing aids, that's your real problem.

[@elivate5523]

William Dukane I am a rep at Oakley and I can tell you I've had lots of customers come into my store replacing their lenses because they A) scratched B) Dog chewed on them C) fell of their head while getting into a car and they ran over their sunglasses. C is very rare but it happens. Oakley sunglasses for safety/military are Z87 rated. Meaning they are puncture and also shatter proof. All of Oakleys lenses are like that. When I got my first pair of Oakleys from where I work I brought them home and smashed the lense with a hammer to see if this is true. And for that I will always only buy Oakleys.

The same happened in my lenses! I need to buy another one, but not Oakley originals unfortunately!

[@ashleykbarks]

Unfortunately, the film that goes over Oakley lenses can deteriorate. However, you should be able to buy replacement lenses pretty easily. The film deteriorates from bodily oils, grease, and other factors. Would you not say that although the film coming off your lenses is a bummer, the fact that you have had your oakley's faithfully serving you for five years is a well- made investment?

[@nealy555]

Wait, this is cool, but aren't pretty much all sunglasses made/owned by luxottica, including Oakley? Is this guy just comparing to other sunglasses that the same company makes?

[@C6Roadster]

Neal Hurley it is to fool people that there is a real competitor but the Italians (Luxotica) are laughing their asses off.

[@khwang89466]

I think it’s about distribution or carrying their products or something...not entirely sure. Oakley tried for a long time not to play by their rules but it became too expensive for Oakley to keep it up. They got bullied into being acquired basically.

[@danielm3894]

So, according to your argument, there's for example no real difference between a Jeep, Fiat, Chrysler, Dodge or say a Maserati (as they are all brands/car companies owned by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles)?

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

Daniel M Yes indeed, there's no difference between those cars, all garbage compared to before when they weren't Fiat

[@christiforeckhoff730]

Luxottica may own a bit of sunglass companies but not a majority as far as what they're comparing it to I'm not sure it could be other than that accompanies like a d or or a Ray-Ban but it could also be known as out of companies like spy electric or Maui Jim so to say it's all the same either way is wrong because Oakley is a sport frame and the only one it would be comparable to is something like a Wiley X or an ESS so yes Oakley is a significant better frame or a lens material in those aspects and that's what they're comparing it to it has no difference whether it's the same company or not as far as that goes because Oakley is still a main owner of the way that they make them they won't let anyone Chang the lenses

[@AJCsr]

I just was given a price for a pair of Oakley prescription sun glasses. $750 to $800 for all plastic glasses. Maybe $20 to $30 bucks worth of materials involved. Luxottica is a monopoly that is using people's dependency on glasses like some kind of drug dealer or pimp !

[@SOCMMOB]

Then, for the price they need to include a Z87.1 certification. Even $2 safety glasses have it. Oakley isn't stamped (most) with Z87.1 so they can't be used as safety glasses in an OSHA environment.

[@tydeze1]

And this is why I buy Oakley

[@C6Roadster]

tydeze1 you are buying Luxotica made glasses. Whether the name or logo says Oakley, Ray Ban, D&G, or Chanel it all comes from the same factory.

[@tydeze1]

It's owned by them yes, but I don't think the factories are the same. As far as I can tell, it looks like the same type of relationship that Volkswagen has with all their subsidiaries. If you look at where they are being made, Ray-Ban's are made both in Italy and China where Oakley is made in the USA. The lenses on Ray-Ban's are glass, Oakley's aren't. So while yes, they are owned by the Luxottica Group, they appear to be quite independent of each other. Both with different approaches and standards.

[@danielm3894]

So, according to your argument, there's no real difference between a Jeep, Fiat, Chrysler, Dodge or say a Maserati (as they are all brands/car companies owned by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles)? Personally, if I was offered one of those cars for free and could pick, I would for example choose a Maserati Levante over a Fiat Panda or a Jeep Compass.

[@Sanic55]

you should just buy sunglasses for $20. same quality as Oakley, just won't say oakley on them. Why do you think lamborghini's and other high end cars perform so well? high quality parts are used because not many are made. Once you mass produce a product quality goes to the very bottom of the page

[@ln6964]

@@Sanic55 Did you not watch the video? Glass and the plastics that are used in the $20 glasses aren't nearly as strong and will end with you very likely losing an eye. I can vouch for Oakleys lense quality and protection. Mine survived a 300 FPS .68 Caliber paintball round from 7 feet away. No eye damage.

I just had to comment on this... among the comments below, some people recommend Vuarnet and Maui Jim. I had a look at their models in their websites and I don't think they're comparable. Not talking about material and quality (can't tell if they're better than Oakley or not), I'm talking about style and design. I simply didn't see myself doing outdoors with those models!! To me, they look utterly boring for that purpose. To me Oakley sounds interesting with the recent Radar capabilities added. Now, regarding the tests, I can't be sure of the equipment calibration, but both impact tests tell me a lot. Those were not regular impacts with everyday airborne particles... My eyes are precious and that's what I care about. Luckily we have a wide range of models and brands to choose from for different purposes, but If you find similar videos including tests for different brands please post the links.

[@KrKrypton]

I would like to see Oakley put more effort into putting more frames through APEL testing. There's a LOT of Joe's that are catching flack for not having APEL frames.

[@KrKrypton]

FYI, APEL is an independent Army specific test and goes far and above Z87.1.

[@danielhesse8600]

KrKrypton it's expensive and completely unnecessary for most people. It would require frames to be built out of possibly bulkier, and less aesthetically pleasing materials, as well as raising the price of them beyond the optimal range for decent profitability. This is coming from someone who needs an ANSI stamp on glasses for them to be used at work. There are very few Oakley glasses that are actually stamped, and while I don't like it, I understand it.

[@KrKrypton]

Daniel Hestopher it's necessary for the Army. Non-APEL approved eyewear cannot be worn in live-fire exercises or on the battlefield because of the need for a rating higher than Z87. Standard M-Frames are Z87 but due to the ease of removing the lense they do not meet APEL standards. APEL approved eyewear has a "ballistic hole" where there is a 3rd retaining mechanism in the middle if the frame/lense preventing the lenses from being easily removed/knocked out. There are other frames that are made similarly that haven't made it to APEL testing.

[@danielhesse8600]

KrKrypton I understand that. The simple fact is 99.9% of their customers are not in the military and do not need, want, or care about it. In any for profit company, it's all about the bottom line, and doing this for more glasses costs more money, and as previously mentioned has other drawbacks that would be more important to the vast majority of their customers. I wish more of their glasses were approved, but it doesn't make sense from a business perspective.

[@The-Warrior-Optimist]

Daniel Hestopher you literally don't know the subject matter. They offer many light and compact frames that pass these tests. Also, their glasses do not cost any more than most high end competitors. Furthermore, military, police, firefighters and athletes are all aware of impact standards and many buy these glasses because of their reputation for high quality and durability. They offer many styles in many price ranges. You can also select your lense type. Furthermore, Oakley's are literally standard issued to thousands of troops. You can't throw bullshit arbitrary numbers out there just because the safety standards are of no use to you. A high percentage of people who buy their products do so in part because of the safety standards.

Oakley will save your eyes from injury. I know for a fact they have saved mine.

I love Oakley's like anyone else. problem is I work construction as a second Job, so I buy the Foakleys

[@SupaNami]

so basically Oakleys are better than Costas, it's why I bought Oakley Straightlink deep water today :)

[@sportrxeyewear]

dude epic!

If you never ware them then yes they scratch to wash for my day to day life,only flaw

[@vladsophie1012]

I may have what seems like a dumb question but does all this apply to their reading glasses also? Or just sun glasses? These glasses saved my husband's eye once before so I've experienced first hand how safe and durable they really are.

[@sportrxeyewear]

It would apply to prescription eyewear also, especially if you get the Oakley lenses!

How would the Oakley Mainlink hold up in that firing chamber?

[@iferca]

I just got one pair and got them because we're very well sold because of the quality. I really enjoyed the video since validates what I heard at the store. I then saw some videos about lens "pealing" which I think it's imposible considering the lenses are tinted before, it supposed not to be a sort of coating. Can you please validates this is the case? I've got the Holbrook prizm Ruby non polarized 3 N. Thanks.

I’ve got a set of Radar Paths with the polarized iridium lenses, the surface began peeling after about 2 years of use. Can’t see through the lenses now.

@@scenefromhere mine are still as new with daily usage (not in the last 3 month obviously)

[@michaelarnold4284]

I have a pair of double edge are they safe as these tested?

[@jataka3]

Is Plutonite available for Crosslink Strike? AND HIGH INDEX LENSES? THANKS
