They're Oakley's !!!
1st off let me start by stating , i'm no fan boy of Oakley's , i either love them or hate them ...I bought these glasses at a fair price S&H included here on Amazon . I was in the market for a black pair to replace an older and somewhat worn pair of black Oakley's i already owned for sometime . I saw these in a few local shops but was not happy with the pricing and customer service , so , off to the WWW i went . I knew they would fit my rather larger than average head and provide the eye coverage i expected . I also knew they were available with polarized lenses which i'm a nut for . Granted most local shops could probably have ordered them custom for me but why do that and pay more when i could handle it all right here and get exactly what i wanted , cheaper and faster ? SO i did ...The invoice stated it would be between 12 and 17 days for delivery and man was i anxious . Surprisingly though they arrived early :) After only 9 days from the date of order i had my new Fuel Cells in matte black with black chrome logo's , grey tinted polarized lenses ( they matched the black chrome logo's ) and brand spanking new right out the package . EXCELLENT !Right off the bat though i did notice 1 small issue , granted it's completely harmless and seriously not a big deal but when i ordered them it gave me an option to select what style lil' sock i wanted which was not what was included in my shipment . Instead i received the standard plain jane rootbeer colored baggy / O sock as they call it . But i'm not one to fuss over spilled milk or trivial things .These glasses are very very similar to the Gascan's if your familiar with those frames . The only differences are the arms have a seperate lil' groove in them and are just a lil' bit thicker . Also on this frame the lenses are a tiny bit larger than on my Gascan's and sit a lil' higher on the bridge of your nose . But aside from those minor details they look nearly identical .I mentioned above i owned a pair of Gascan's , the frames by which all others are now judged when it comes to fit finish performance and everything else in my book . I truly love those glasses ! These are 99% as good as those are . My only real complaint about these glass's or specifically the frames is that with them sitting slightly higher on the bridge of my nose and having these slightly larger lenses they tend to bump my brow and sit so close to my eyes that occasionally i can feel my lashes hit the lenses . I've discussed this with a couple friends and other owners and they seem to have similar comments / thoughts / issues / whatever you wanna lable it as . However , not 1 of those people that i've spoke with , including myself would give them up , send em' back or trade out of them . So this testifies , atleast in my case as to how otherwise perfect , comfortable and satisfying they truly are .If your shopping O's then take a good hard serious look at these , they're exceptional shades an available here at Amazon for pretty good deals too ;)

Great glasses - authentic Oakley
I bought this to replace a pair of Oakley fuel cell that I have had for about 10years that finally broke. Putting the new pair next to my old ones, there are some differences Oakley has made some changes over the years, but I am fairly certain these are authentic. I even popped my prescription lends out of my old ones and they went right into the new ones.A couple notes.The flat grey pair that I got gets finger prints and oil like crazy compared to normal "shiny" sunglass material. It kind of solved itself by having enough "oil" on the frame over time to where it all looks effectively one color again. I like the look and would choose it again over shiny black, but just be aware.My pair came in an unlabeled white box with an SI sunglass bag. This is not how my original Fuel Cells came (white Oakley labeled bag and a semi-hard Oakley case), but this could just be how Oakleys are sold these days. I still think they are authetic (checking the seems, serial, etc)My pair came with a 2cm long scratch on the frame arm. Doesn't bother me at all and I bet the vendor would exchange if I cared to, but I never tried. With how easily finger prints show up on the frame, I doubt these were used and returned and just an unlucky scratch in handling somewhere along the line.Overall if I disaster struck and I were to need a new pair tomorrow, I would buy them again and I would buy them again from this seller.

Beautifully designed
I bought this unisex pair of oakley sunglasses as a gift for my big brother who lived in the different country, and I tried it on to show it to him and when he saw it, he likes it very much and he couldn't even wait to have it.. the quality and the design is nicely made, and even bought him a strap to hanged the sunglasses around the neck but unfortunately the item that I ordered wasn't matched with the sunglasses, (my mistake I didn't know that oakley's string has a hole that you can inserted the tip thru the slot, I can'texplained it right) but I can exchange it with the right one hopefully I can get it right,Overall everything is fine and I will definitely recommend it to everyone, the price is affordable.

Great products!! Been using for over 25 years. Stylish, comfortable, lightweight and lenses can be replaced. I also love the steel flag. Sad it’s been discontinued. Make sure you get your pair soon!

Was sent used glasses
I initially believed that purchasing from Amazon, as an authorized dealer for Oakley, would ensure a smooth experience; however, I was mistaken. While the glasses themselves are of good quality, I would advise caution when making a significant investment. Unfortunately, my reviews have been repeatedly removed, and I had to provide a higher star rating for the review to be posted. In reality, I would rate this product one star.

Stylish and functional
I had these glasses for a while(opted shortly afterwards for the Ducati version) and they are awesome. Being the first polarized set of glasses I have ever owned, I was not sure whether the view itself would be polarizing (pun intended), having heard ambivalent reviews from various sources as well as justification on the added cost of polarized versions. However, I am glad to say that they have been anything but, and they have been extremely comfortable particularly when driving for long hours, something that cannot be said of the pair they were replacing, Oakley Gascans.In addition, I have a somewhat wide face and Gascans were simply not working for me, often sliding down the bridge of my nose, so it was refreshing that the fit on these was just optimal.One thing of note is that the Fuel Cells have somewhat large lenses, something that is not obvious in the pics. They are definitely wider (taller?) than the Gascans but not so much that the size stands out.
