Oakley Half Jacket Sunglasses - Polarized - 2007
The Oakley Half Jacket Polarized Sunglasses are Oakley's first dual-lens eyewear with interchangeable lenses. This chameleon lets you adapt instantly to any light condition. Polarized lenses cut horizontal glare out like no other lens can, making them perfect for boating, driving, and all water sports. When the sun fades, switch to a new set of lenses and change your entire outlook on life. Accented with true metal icons, the lightweight O Matter frame includes Unobtainium earsocks and grip anchors. The open-edge design extends your vertical field of vision, and each set of lenses retains the peripheral clarity of XYZ Optics. *Replacement lenses sold separately.
Bottom Line: Get the Oakley Half Jacket Polarized Sunglasses if you spend a lot of time on water or driving in variable light conditions.

Great For the small face

This is a great sunglass for all the reasons people have stated - lightweight, stylish, and great for sports. If you have a larger mug, you might opt for the Flak jacket.
Perfect sport shades

I wear these mountain biking and skiing. The larger nose pads that are included are great for those with smaller nose bridges. The Unobtanium rubber on the nose/arms have great grip on my head. Perfect sport shades.
Would these glasses be good for running in track and field?

Oakley Fan

I have been a fan of Oakley's products since an original pair of M-frames many years ago. These glasses continue to perform as I expect from Oakley - great. Comfortable, good optics, light. The glasses stay on during all types of activity and remain comfortable during extended wear. I do not encounter any pressure points. My only issue, which slight, is that the lenses fog up a bit during heavy activity since they fit so tightly. But that is a minor issue and there are many instances (windy conditions) where this tight fit is an asset.
All in - a great set of shades for outdoor activity.
Great sunglasses!

I've owned a lot of sunglasses, but these are the best, hands down. The lenses are exceptionally clear, and the polarization is outstanding. The sides won't slip from your head and actually get stickier as you sweat (no kidding!). Oakley makes them that way, and they work great for sports. Great glasses for hiking, running or everyday use. I use mine for everyday and sports, and they are very durable.
According the the website "Oakley premium eyewear passes this ANSI Z87.1 test"
Not sure which ones are considered "premium" but for the price, I'd think they all are.

Also look here to see video impact test. You can even select the frame/lens combo. It's pretty reassuring: http://oakley.com/innovation/optical_superiority/impact_prot

i bought the "asian fit" and use it primarily for running. it's snug, lightweight, and offers great protection. Have tried other Oakleys, but the fit provided by the Half Jackets seem to be the best.
how do you put the replacement lens in the frame?

These are the greatest sunglasses I have ever owned. I love everything about them. I wear them running a lot and sweat has never dripped into my eyes when I've had these on. The polarization is a must for all conditions!
Amber Black Iridium
By: Dow Williams
December 28, 2007
Been climbing in the VR28 Oakley lens for ever...problem is I broke both pair of my full metal jacket VR28s on climbing outing within a month of each other and had been climbing in these same two pair for years. Of course Oakley can't stand to keep a good thing going, so no more Full Metal Jacket which I prefer....worse thing was finding a reasonable small Oakley design with polarized lens that was any good for climbing. Most lens tints are way to dark and don't function well in corners and shade when on the rock. That VR28 was the ticket until I found these Amber Black Iridium. Tremendous contrast which is a must when climbing and scouting out the smallest of features. Cheers.

These are excellent glasses. The polarization makes everything crystal clear.
I just wish they came with a more substantial glass case.

Great for running, climbing, biking or just looking cool... they fit my face well, and the huge selections of lenses available makes them a good choice for a variety of conditions.
Love 'em
By: NorthwestCoastChick

Love these glasses! They fit well, stick well, and best of all are polarized. I use these primarily out on the water with my crew team, and I wouldn't race in anything else. When it's 110 degrees and we're all sweating nothing else will stay on my face. These look great, feel great, block a ton of sun, and are definitely worth the money.
Like They're Not Even There

Oakley outdoes themselves again with these perfect performers. Great for active sports. I sweat a LOT and these don't aggravate me like some sunglasses have in the past, by sitting on my sweaty cheekbones. You can barely tell they are there. They don't slip around either and I have a pretty small head. Great buy, and great deal on Oakley polarized sunglasses!
Super Specs; super flexible
By: mcpro

These specs have all the versatility of the m-frames without the total jock-geek look (speaking as an m-frame'r). The clarity of the polarized lenses is unbelievable, as others have said. They're also comfortable. The half-jacket case, with room for additional lenses is a worth while purchase for protecting these puppies. If you really like using these, getting some extra lenses for low light (HI Persimon) or cloudy conditions (g30) is useful - especially if you're cycling and wear contacts, for instance. One recommendation: try on the XLJ and the regular lens shapes first to see which suits you better - smaller faces seem to do better with the regular lenses.

These glasses are great. The fit is extremely comfortable. The clarity is phenomenal. They make everything so clear. They do not slide down your nose as perspiration begins to build up. The best thing is you can buy other lenses for different light conditions.
