Oakley Flak Jacket XLJ Sunglasses

The XLJ Flak Jacket Sunglasses feature lenses that are slightly larger lens than the standard Flak Jacket to give you more protection from the sun's nasty rays. If you're trail running and you need greater visual contrast, swap out the Flak Jacket's lenses to suit your lighting conditions in a matter of seconds. Unobtanium rubber temples and nosepiece get grippier as you sweat to keep your glasses comfortably snug on your head. When your sporting endeavors take you into less-than-favorable conditions, Oakley's hydrophobic lens coating repels water, oils, and even dust.

Bottom Line: Pro athletes and weekend warriors alike deserve the eye protection of the Oakley XLJ Flak Jackets.

Flak Transitions

By: JCN (5)
April 30, 2008

Check the Transitions, they are great. I ordered the jet black/persimmon trans and they quickly replaced my smiths as my new favorite lenses. I thought smith knew what they were doing when it came to lense quality, but these Transition Flaks are far better. Water, sweat, oil and pretty much any other thing you could think of just beads off of these bad boys. I love nice glasses and think that any active person should treat themselves to these Flaks. I have a medium-sized face and the XLJ's are fine. Check out the Oakley website to see what the different lenses are capable of doing in various conditions. They have a nice little interactive site set up for lenses.

Got an answer for vc12187927?

Confused? Somebody out there knows the answer.

Are the Flak Jacket XLJ's larger overall than the Half Jacket...

Are the Flak Jacket XLJ's larger overall than the Half Jacket XLJ's? The HJ's are only 1.5 inches tall and not wide enough for me. My head size is normal btw, not like Barry Bonds. Thanks in advance.

They make an "Asian Fit" in the Flak Jacket for people with wider faces. Not to stereotype..thats just what they are called. Check out Oakley.com.

Oakley Flak Jacket XLJ Sunglasses

These are awesome. I love the racing red lenses. The eye coverage is great and the fit is nice on my head (medium to large). Definitely a must buy for runners and cyclists. That's what I plan on using them for. A great buy.

After loosing my 1st. pair to Lake Michigan, I knew there simply wasn't another Co. out there that could measure-up to the absolute all-around perfection these (in Rx) glasses provide! I ordered my replacement 24hrs. after the disturbing loss and have not looked-back(w/o my Flak's) since!

I Love these sunglasses

These Flak Jacket XLJ Sunglasses are the best. Aerodynamic in every way. The lenses are great in the morning, midday, or when the sun goes down; they blow my polarized lenses out of the water. They look great, they fit great. Best purchase of the year. Can't go wrong.

These shades rule!

By: Armando (30)

The Flak Jackets do everything I want of them for biking--great coverage for wind and sun, fit securely on my head or helmet, and most importantly the hydrophobic coating works incredibly. I used to take my glasses off for long climbs, but no need with these--the sweat (or water you dump on your head )runs right off with barely perceptible streaking. They'll be perfect for skiing as well.

Awesome Sunglasses!

By: pmarsh (1)

This is the first time I have ever owned a pair of Oakleys. These are probably the best sunglasses that you can get. I've had them for about a week and love how easy they are to clean. The case is very nice and the best thing is their interchangable lens.

Holy Crap. These things rock.

Wow. I always wondered what all Oakley techno-jargon meant-- to boil it down these glasses kick ass. These Flak Jacks are so light and they fit my head perfectly. The XLJ lens gives me the extra coverage I need when I'm riding my bike. That hydrophobic coating on the lens makes water and other gunk bead up and fly away. I'm throwing my Smith Sliders in the effing garbage can.

I love my flak jackets! I bought them mainly for mountain biking, and have not been disappointed. The fit is great, and the G30 lens I ordered is the best.
