Oakleys are great glasses, unless you know what great glasses are. (If you know what I mean) If you don't know anything about glasses, chances are you know what Oakleys are. A lot of people haven't heard of any glasses that might be better. In my opinion, which isn't all encompassing, I suggest polarized glasses from L.L. Bean. I've had a single pair from the for the past 4 years, they don't scratch (unlike Oakley), they have the best polarized lenses, except for maybe Costas or Maui Jims (I don't have much experience with them), but the coolest thing about the L.L. Bean glasses is they have a lifetime warranty, if they ever break, or do get scratched, send them back and they send you a new pair. Oh, and they normally cost about $50. Half as much as the NON polarized Oakleys. Unless you can get an awesome deal on your Oakleys from a website like the one I posted a month or 2 ago, I wouldn't waste your money.
