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 optional lenses retains the peripheral clarity of XYZ Optics. **CLICK THE SIZING/INFO CHART BELOW FOR LENS TINT INFORMATION *Replacement lenses sold separately.

Good but not great

By: jthomas921030(4)

I bought these specifically for a rim-to-rim hike across the Grand Canyon. Lens color and polarization were very good. The frames stayed put on my head. But the lenses fogged easily when the air was cool and the exertion hard. A hiking companion had another brand with similar lens characteristics but the frames had small vent holes at the top of the lenses that eliminated the fogging problem for her.

Great Glasses

By: jleephoto(6)
March 4, 2008

I've worn these since they were released through three trips to Iraq. I lost the firest pair and after trying several other brands, returned them and bought these old faithfuls. Excellent frames that don't slip down a sweaty nose. Comfortable for hours on end. Only negatives are the Polarized Iridium lenses scratch easily so I've gone through a few of them and, the glasses, because they fit close, may be a little more prone to fogging especially when I have my morning coffee.

Great value with even greater performance

By: Steve G(2)

Mostly use these Polarized XLJ Half Jackets for road cycling in the summer. The best benefits are that they remain comfortably in place even during the hottest days. The polarized lens give a great field of view and cut down on any road/car/water glare. Some disadvantages are they fog up during humid mornings or if riding inverted on helmet and don't clear easily, they are difficult to change the lens initially but once accustomed to change, then change nicely. Overall the HALF JACKET XLJ POLARIZED are comfortable and provide great eye protection both from sun and road debris and bugs.

Replacements

I originally purchased a pair of the regular XLJ until I lost them in a severe storm, I loved those things. I decided to upgrade to the polarized versions and didn't think they could get any better.

Great lenses

I like the lenses and the clarity, but I have some reservations about the durability and quality of the plastic frame. Seems like they could be brittle but I didn't have any incidents with them yet.

Great for Biking

By: GauthChild(28)

These are the best shades for biking. The way the frame fits, it allows you to put them over the helmet strap so you don't get a headache. There is also plenty of ventilation so they don't fogg. These are a must for biking!

My first pair was stolen. They were so good I bought another pair. Great on the water, great driving, nearly perfect optics. My daughter's a lifeguard and I bought her a pair. She worships them. Worth the money!

They are nice sunglasses, but if you ever want to change the lenses it is a pain. I felt like I was going to break them.

Oakley Half Jacket

By: Long time Scouter(1)

Well these polarized sunglasses sure beat anything I've had yet for sunglasses. They’re easy to keep clean, they stay on your head, and have gone just about everywhere with me so far. Whether it is hiking in the mountains to bouncing down a trail on an ATV, they just work. And if (or I should say when) you scratch them you can replace the lens. My only complaint is they hug your nose so tight that sometimes sweat gets on the inside of the glasses, but other than that two thumbs up!

Wow

By: Chris Auer(3)

I was skeptical about spending a lot of money on the sunglasses, but these glasses are amazing. I went on a 4-day hike through the Grand Tetons and never squinted once. I am still amazed at how the Oakleys work. Polarized is definitely worth the money.

A Good Case

By: Anonymous(1)
August 5, 2005

It says it is a soft case, but it isn't, really, it is quite hard and durable. I've droppoed my half-jackets in this case many times, and they are fine. It is not the cheapest case out there though, but to be sure that it fits half-jackets (or what-ever you have) and to be sure that it is a sturdy case, you should by this one.
