Adapt instantly to any light condition with the dual-lens Oakley Half Jacket Iridium Sunglasses. With interchangeable lenses, these chameleon sunglasses allow you to switch to a new set of optional lenses to match the current light conditions and/or to change your look.
Built for high-octane lifestyles, the glasses feature a snug three-point fit that hugs the nose and behind the ears. The glasses are equipped with interchangeable Unobtainium earsocks, nose pads, and grip anchors to insure a comfortable secure fit. Each lens option has a distinctive Iridium coating and tint that reflects glare, heightens contrast, and provides 100 percent protection against UV and harmful blue light, making the glasses ideal for snow, water, and road sports. In addition, the open-edge design extends your vertical field of vision and each set of optional lenses retains the peripheral clarity of XYZ Optics.
The sunglass frames are built with O Matter and accented with true metal icons. O Matter is lightweight and light-stress resistant for long-term use. The super durable Plutonite lens material passes ANSI Industrial Standard Z87.1 for optical clarity, high mass, and high velocity impact.
Oakley's polarized lenses are specially engineered to block the blinding rays of glare that are magnified by flat surfaces such as snow, water, and pavement. Oakley polarization technology utilizes a liquid infusion process to bond the polarizing filter at the molecular level. This process eliminates the haze and distortion found in conventional technologies and achieves some the best polarized optics available.

Customer Reviews
Over the years I've purchased about 6 pair of Oakley's but most recently I bought these Polarized Oakley Half Jackets back in March 2008.
Pros:
I like the way they fit by clinging to to your head. They are lightweight and comfortable as well. They are stylish and perform well at blocking the sun from your eyes. The frames are durable.
Cons:
The lenses are NOT scratch resistant at all. After owning several pair of Oakleys, I know very well how to care for them by only using the cloth that comes with them and I take very good care of my subglasses. Nevertheless about 3 weeks after I bought them I found a small scratch on the right lens. A few weeks later I was at the beach and somehow one of the plastic nose guards fell off by itself, never to be found again. Another few months went by and I noticed that the coating started flaking off the lenses. Now the sunglasses are about a year and a half old and the flaking has gotten so bad that I can't wear them anymore. I'm pretty upset about this seeing as how I dished out $200 for sunglasses that only last a little over a year. My other pairs of Oakleys have held up better in the past but a few were lost or stolen so I only had maybe 3 pair long enough to stop wearing them. But inevitably it always ends the same way.. with scratches all over the lenses after only a few months. It seems that they have been getting more and more cheaply made over the years while their prices have stayed the same or increased.
So I'm done with Oakley and their cheap lenses. No more. Purchase at your own risk!
If you have to replace the rubber pieces, (the nose piece has a tendency to fall off and you have to get a whole kit to replace,) it can be difficult. After struggling to replace the ear piece rubber with I used a drop of dishwashing soap in the ends and they slid right on. They were initially stretched a bit but they conformed. The installation of the lenses take some time to master.
