Fusing separate sculptural forms into a single unified piece, Oakley's latest design language combines injection-molded X Metal® with lightweight O Matter®. A mechanical cam achieves optimal positioning of the earstems, whether folded or open. Changeable nosebombs of moisture-wicking Unobtainium® maintain all-day comfort while patented XYZ Optics® provides all-angle clarity. Prescription ready.

shape, coolness... excellent for doormen and bodyguards :D
Weaknesses:
no excellent adhesion on the head, compared to other Oakley models
Bottom Line:
The Oakley SCAR has a unique shape and is not made for babyfaces!! It's best for badasses. 8)

Price Paid:

Purchased At:
Mall
Strengths:
I actually own a pair of twenties, and they fit better than any other pair of sunglasses I have owned. They also look great
Weaknesses:
the rubber-like paint bubbles up off the frames and peels off. I think this is a problem with their frog-skin line of glasses. I own the fmj red color.
Similar Products Used:
many others
Bike Setup:
not important to the review
Bottom Line:
after about a summer of use the paint started to bubble off the frames and peel. I sent them back to oakley and they were very cool about it, I got a new pair in about 2 weeks. However the new pair is starting to do the same thing. I would avoid the frog-skin line of sunglasses as they all use the same type of coating. It's too bad because they are comfy and fit very well.

Duration Product Used:

Price Paid:
$180.00
Purchased At:
Sports Cottage
Strengths:
Looks good, exellent optics, stays on my head when i'm moving, tough frame construction.
Weaknesses:
Low quality paint or whatever used on the frames (FMJ Red). It will bubble up and chip off after a while. I sent the glasses to the manufacturer to get them fixed and they sent me a new pain and they're starting to do the same thing. Has this happened to anyone else?
Similar Products Used:
oakley splice, old arrnets (spelling?)
Bike Setup:
a stock gary fisher sugar.
Bottom Line:
They'd be the perfect specs if it wasnt for the stupid paint that keeps bubbling up off of the frames. Can't complain about the price either! I use them in both a casual setting as well as when i'm ridding my bike through the woods and they do well in both categories.
