another word over the oakley's. they do have the best lenses imho but, and this is observation from years of use, they scratch by just looking sharp through them. for today's possibilities in coatings and all, theirs seem just not made particularly more resilient and replacement costs an arm and a leg.
one gets the idea that this is all tactic as my other fav, smith optics, are well tougher on that, have a little less choice of otherwise awesome lenses and less cyborg/more slick frames.
the lenses, smith provides for my snow goggle of choice, are amazing and wouldn't let oakley even try to curl one out on them. i'd go and get me another of their shades if my oakleys would decide to fall apart on me.
just thought i'd share my favs with you.
