Frosted clear, not crystal
I ordered the Chrystblk/Ohmgryslvr thinking the clear part would be crystal clear, as is shown in the product pic. The product that arrived was frosted, matte clear. Didn't send it back because I still liked the looks and overall quality is great.

Disappointed
The picture on website looks way better than the actual glasses. Seem to be decent quality, but disappointed in the look. The color is nothing like what is pictured. I ordered the mason tiger/ grey.

Clarity and Style
These bad boys are great! Clear lenses and the pattern is awesome! They also hold on to my head very snug and sit great on my nose without any discomfort whatsoever

They don't suck
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
The black has a nice matte finish that looks good and holds onto your face decently well. I got the reddish orangish lenses and they filter the light pretty well but could be mirrored a little more - like you can still see your eyes through the lens. These have been my primary pair of sunglasses and so far the lenses have picked up only the smallest of scratches from how many times they've been (mis)handled.

Great fit and a super cool look, love the color scheme on the matte torte and the style is awesome. Medium frame size so not massive but not tiny either. Overall quality Sunglasses.

Love these guys
These glasses are a classic style and look great on most faces, the Combat Green is awesome. They're comfortable and don't pinch behind my ear. Great buy if you're looking for sunglasses.

Pretty cool...
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit:
- Runs small
These are pretty nice they were simply too small for my face. If you have a medium/large size face and head I would definitely go with the Knoxville XL's. Thanks to backcountry.com the exchange process was painless and I got some Knoxville XL's which I think look cooler. I originally got the red frame/plasma lense variation and thought it would look like the picture below from "npb4813900". The lenses seemed more like green/red than purple/pink but that could just be the different lighting situations.

Love the Knoxville
The best perfect polarized sunglasses out there, lightweight and can take a beating. Even if you like to take'em for a swim like i do.

Sick glasses
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I really like these. I got them in the tortoise color and they look good. They also stay on your head well when you're moving around and being active which is always a plus.

Great Glasses
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
These are great durable and good looking glasses. The only downsides is they arm hinges get pretty lose which is annoying after awhile but I would totally recommend them. Still wear them today been at least a year and a half so they are great overall.

Light and Stylish
This is now the 2nd pair of these bad boys that I have purchased and love the way they fit medium to large faces. If you like the classic rayban style that is coming back and have a larger face these are Perfect. The lenses are light and pretty durable considering mine usually end up at the bottom of my bag with loose change. Just don't loose them!

These sunglasses are money
It was worth paying a little bit more for these sunglasses. The frame is a great fit, and the UV-protection lenses are super clear. The perfect blend between style and functionality.

Very distinctive, I get lots of compliments and requests to try them on.

sincerest form of flattery
While the frame profile may look suspiciously like the Oakley Holbrook (ie: nearly identical), there are still a few very subtle design differences (like the Knoxville being made in Italy), and a few more eye-popping colorway/lens options to ensure that the Knoxville is another bitching piece more than worth adding to your collection. Besides, who cares about which design came first? This timeless and rad throwback design deserves to be owned more than once.

They're not exceptionally wide or flexible, but I have wider temples and prefer wide sunnies, and these fit just fine. Unless you've got some kind of gorilla melon, they should fit you nicely.

Here's another photo of the Red Plasma frames. They are kind of a translucent-ish Red.
