Oakley Flight Jacket - First Look | SportRx

[@KaptureRealmCosplay]

These are great frames, I actually use them for work at the hospital, they allowed us to use our own eye protection finally so i decided to use these as a makeshift safety eyewear by simply putting the clear lenses in em, actually didnt know about that nose piece until about 3 weeks in definitely helped diminish the fog when i'm wearing a face mask. But Oakley also came out with some P.P.E frames which i also picked up the Tombstone safety glasses which the lens piece is very similar to the Flight Jackets. i love em both and use em both (for hospital and basic household work), i will definitely consider reviewing both of them pretty soon!

[@sportrxeyewear]

That is amazing to hear! Thanks so much for taking the time to check out our video and for sharing your experience with us!

[@barex20]

Just got one. Prizm Road jade. Love it!

[@sportrxeyewear]

The Best! 😍

[@derzkoeradio]

got mine today. White and sapphire irdm. Fantastic futuristic 👓

[@sportrxeyewear]

Good looks!

[@lundinulrika]

Fits good.

[@patiofurnituregt]

These look sick and super functional!

[@sportrxeyewear]

That's exactly what Oakley was going for! Sunglass Rob and Phil had a great time testing out the Flight Jacket sunglasses :)

[@JulioRodriguez-vs1qp]

Do the photochromic lenses works? Are they dark enough for daylight running? 23% of light seems high or im i wrong?

[@rubendeklerkdeklerkperform5501]

Will these be available in asian fit? They are quite wide and most sunglasses slide down on me.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hello Ruben! The Flight Jacket is a new frame and Oakley may introduce an asian fit version in the future. Unfortunately we have not heard news of one coming out yet. Thanks for reaching out!

[@n0twist1]

are the lenses interchangeable?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey N0twist! Unfortunately, the shield is not interchangeable like the Oakley Flak 2.0 sunglasses. However, if you have 2 different shields you can take the frame to a local optometrist and they can help switch out the shield for you.

[@derzkoeradio]

Today it's possible. There's lenses at Oakley com.

[@riccardocasarotto95]

Can I use Flight Jacket for Running ? Specific for TRAIL Running. Is it stable enough or does it move on the face without cycling helmet ? Because I want to buy it only for running use. Thank you

[@makalubowen4400]

I own a pair and use it only for TRAIL running! I tend to use the button that pulls the frame forward quite often especially when sweating hard.

[@riccardocasarotto95]

Thank you@@makalubowen4400 for the answer. You use specifically the Flight model ? What about the stability on your head ? Because I see only cyclists use this...when you run on the trail you need more stability 🤔 And what about the under visual, for example when you run in downhill, the inferior frame doesn't disturb the ground view ? Thank you very much, it's important for me.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! The Oakley Flight Jacket has a very snug tip-to-tip retention. Meaning that the back end of the frame hugs your head pretty tightly which helps keep the frames in place and on your face. As you look downward you will see a bit of the bottom of the frame but the lens is also extended on this model to give you a wider viewing area. If you are super concerned about your downward view then you may want to consider going with the Radar EV Path since it features a bottomless frame: www.sportrx.com/oakley-radar-ev-path.html

[@sportrxeyewear]

Thanks for chiming in, Frosty!

[@andyjame2978]

Easy peasy- and it works!!

[@aimee9622]

Are lenses going to be available separately at some point?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hello Aimee! We have not heard of that being an option since it is still a relatively new release. It would be wise for Oakley to make them available in the future though. And if they do, we will have them! thanks for reaching out!

[@edwinoviedo]

Excelente diseño, bien pensado Oakley

[@sportrxeyewear]

¡Tendremos que estar de acuerdo con usted en ese Edwin! Gracias por comentar sobre el video :)

[@Night6436]

That guy on the right has a channel? That must be exciting, he said about 4 words through the entire video. 😂

[@SusobhonSamuelMorrison]

Night-ym- 😂😂😂

[@rossimessi1]

Check it out. Best mtb channel. He was biting his tounge in this one. Cringing at the marketing nonsense.

[@jeromie6993]

Are they Rx-able yet?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hello Jeromie! They are not rx-able yet...But the Field Jacket is! We will do our very best to have it available at SportRx when it is!

[@bewimotos]

can you buy different lenses for the same frame?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Yes, you can find replacement lenses on Oakley.com. Thanks for reaching out!

[@IRozza]

What colour lens is the one with the white frame in the middle??

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi Rory! That is PRIZM Sapphire! It is available in a sunglass lens and snow lens. You can learn more about PRIZM Sapphire here: www.sportrx.com/blog/oakley-prizm-sapphire-lens-review/

[@NPofficer]

Can this be fitted with prescription lenses?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey NPofficer! Unfortunately, the Oakley Flight Jacket is not compatible with prescription lenses.

[@NPofficer]

Thanks!

[@sportrxeyewear]

No problem! Please let us know if we can help answer any other question regarding optical eyewear.

[@ivanjakelic6638]

Are they polarized?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! The Flight Jacket is not available with a polarized lens.

[@Murhamdilah]

Will this fit smaller nose bridge for asian people?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Murhamdilah! Unfortunately, the Flight Jacket does not come in an Asian fit style as of now. Many members of our team tried the Flight Jacket and the members with smaller nose bridges had a hard time fitting into the frame.

[@hasmano4176]

cool looking, hope to have it in asian fit

[@sportrxeyewear]

Thanks for watching and commenting Has! We spoke with our friends at Oakley and they are hoping to get an Asian fit version available in the near future.

[@purple8gold]

Exchangeable lens?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Thanks for commenting and watching Purple8gold! Unfortunately, the Oakley Flight Jacket does not have an interchangeable shield.

[@crmtty2k]

Hi there is this model available in Asian fit?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hi there! The Field Jacket is not offered in asian fit. You can check out all the Oakley asian fit sunglasses here: www.sportrx.com/shopby/asian_fit-yes/brand-oakley/product_type-sunglasses.html

[@mikecrow.1]

Riff Raff brought me here

[@kaitlynrubino6488]

Anyone know if these fit with a full face helmet?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Great question, Kaitlyn! We do not know for certain but it seems the temple arms are slim enough to be tucked away comfortably.

[@chrisgarland9381]

Thank goodness! I’ve been waiting for this! Lol 😂

[@sportrxeyewear]

And the wait is finally over! Always nice to hear from you Chris :)

[@VeteranLu]

Rob, hows the fit on asian faces?

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Ephraim! The Oakley Flight Jacket frame design sits close to the cheekbone on Asian faces and when you squint the frame will move up and down.

[@VeteranLu]

SportRx thanks! Keep those vids coming!

[@danieljakovleski1297]

Boys you missed how to replace the lance :)

[@sportrxeyewear]

Hey Daniel! We're hoping to get a video up soon on how to change the shield for the Oakley Flight Jacket.

[@TeslaOsiris]

Hopefully the Rx version of the Flight Jacket isn't like the Jawbreaker where you could only get Black Iridium as a choice. I've been wanting a Prizm Road lens for a long time.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Right!? The Prizm Road in a prescription for the Flight Jacket would be a game changer.

[@christianrodriguez3531]

So these are what Marc Soler was wearing last Paris Roubaix!, I thought he was wearing Wind Jackets which seemed strange but sometimes pro cyclist do weird things, interesting product to say the least...

[@sportrxeyewear]

The Flight Jacket is very close to the Wind Jacket in regards to frame design. But we will have to agree with you on that Christian! It is a unique pair of sunglasses.

[@freeskier6377]

Unm what are Oakley doing??!!

[@gongo787]

Instead of making new sunglasses put yourself to work guys fixing the iridium lenses that they are pealing super quick. Switched to costa Del Mar with no regrets life time warranty instead of just 2 years with Oakley and a superior lens.

[@sportrxeyewear]

Thank you for commenting and sharing your insight with us Gongo!

[@ArkadionZAF]

Yeah totally agree, I've had peeling lenses on my Batwolfs and my Radars now too, not cool for the price tag! Love Oakley but this issue should be resolved.

[@alexchiong8437]

Makes you look like a Gundam Pilot.

[@bryannguyen6333]

Thank you, this just made up my mind to purchase these
