Sirens sound, searchlights flare, guards yell, and you calmly don your Oakley Inmate Sunglasses. An ultralight frame composed of C-5 alloy encases two Plutonite lenses, which block not only guard tower floodlights but UV rays as well.

  • An ergonomic contour opens up your peripheral view to make dodging canine units much easier
  • A proprietary three-point fit along with Unobtanium components cloaked in hydrophilic ear-socks help adhere these shades even when you work up a sweat during your escape
  • Impact-resistant design means that even after some jostling, you can scale the perimeter fence in style

Bottom Line: Break from the ordinary.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

I've had so many different pairs of sunglasses, brands included. but these Oakley Inmates are by far the best owned, full face coverage, comfortable fit, and fantastic styling! The price is great as well. Thanks to backcountry and oakley!

An excellent shape to the lens and they fit my large noggin perfectly; however, I wish they offered other color options. The Matte Black frame with the VR28 Iridium lenses would be a better match IMO. I have been buying the Spy Oasis for the last 3 years so I dig the different look of the Inmates.

Broken

By:
December 21, 2009

I loved these glasses when i bought them. They looked sick. But just after the "one year warranty" (wouldn't you think that a company like Oakley offers more than a "One year warranty?") I went to put my glasses on and they felt different. I took a closer look to find that my frames had cracked! I never kept my glasses in the sun or out of the case, so this break had me baffled. Long story short... These glasses looked sick, but they are poorly made. For whatever reason, Oakley chooses not to back up a $150 purchase with a decent warranty. Go with a better warranty like with Smiths or something.

BIG pimpin Miami Vice style

By:
August 18, 2009

i got a big head (TWSS) thee are sweet miami vice style pimpiators. I have had a few Oakley glasses non of them fit very well because of my gigantic melon. But these, are a match made in heaven. Very durable, I have dropped them many times, kids have tossed them, grabbed them etc... withstands durability test in my mind. Great coverage, great lens. Sits gently on the nose and they stay on even when you lean over. If you want the smooth state trooper/undercover narc look, these can pull it off. if your a scronny little skinny guy, you may look like a mosquito, i don't reccomend them. I have the titanium with mirror lens, best glasses I have had for a long time, they make you look mean as hell too. I give them an A++ a must buy.

pimpin' it up

By:

I liked these sunglasses quite a bit. They fit my face well (except for the sides, which extended a bit too far past my ear for my taste) and looked very pimp... literally. I had a lot of people say I looked like an actual pimp (not a brad pitt kinda pimp).

I think it was mainly because I had the gold ones and had i got the silver instead I probably would have kept them. As it were, I returned them.

Still solid.
