Quitlimpin Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 Love my polarized Oakley half jackets. As far as price it's about like anything else, you get what you pay for. Do Craftsmen tools work--yup just fine, but Snap-on works better. Quote
Koop Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 I use these for hunting too, with my panda poodle. Quote
kikstand454 Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 im thinking of wileyx myself. theyre allegedly good quality,they are WAY cheaper... and they float. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted September 20, 2009 Super User Posted September 20, 2009 I thought the Wiley's felt very cheap when I inspected them at BPS (P-17s specifically). Also, I found a lot more disheartening reviews of the Wileys than the Costas. That's why I went with the Costas instead of getting the free Wileys. My CDMs float. Quote
Hook Set Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 Costa Del Mar Triple Tail in amber, love em! Quote
kikstand454 Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 now that i think about it i think i got wileys confused with fishgillz. im looking into getting them... a place here has them for like 38bucks or something. i havent payed more than 15bucks for a pair of sunglasses ever and im still tryin to talk myself into this 40dollar thing. i know better lenses better sight yadda yadda yadda. i always scratch my glasses within the first month of getting them and then end up breaking them in 4 months or so... so no cdm for me.

UrbanAngler Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 I wear $10 glasses from wal-mart. 8-) 8-) i bought a pair of renegade glasses from walmart for like 11 bucks once. the pair held up for about 2 months, so i went back and bought another pair. they didn't make through the first week. anyways; broke down and picked up some "HOVEN" shades (copper lens) for $65 at sport chalet. great shades!!! i could see everything(underwater).

ValkyrieRider Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 Wiley's are ok. I've used them extensively at work (lots of different models). I've probably got 10 pair of them. I still use walmart glasses. Just a thought. Take it for what it's worth Quote
MSPbass Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 I really enjoy my Native Eyewear glasses. I've got one with amber lenses and one with grey. I prefer the amber for fishing though. However, a neat feature of the Native frames is how the lenses are interchangeable. If you like, you can carry a couple colors and switch them out as conditions change. The price tag isn't too bad either; around $120 at REI. Quote
slider head Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 I wear Oakley square wire 2.0's I have 2 pair. Fathom blue and grey. I went away from plastic lenses a couple years back. Reason why is that after a couple years the plastic degraded and the frames cracked. No matter how careful you were with them. About 220.00 a pop and IMO worth every penny! Quote
Joel Pera Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 I have a pair of Oakley half jackets with the blue lenses, amber lenses, and titanium lenses. The lenses are very easy to change and these three cover all water types and all light conditions. Like everyone else says, it is worth every penny to get good eye wear and quality of the polarization is better then anything else out there. Quote
JigMe Posted October 8, 2009 Posted October 8, 2009 I have a pair of Ray-ban and oakley. Ray-ban for driving, and oakley for everything else. Don't get those cheap pairs from wal-mart, you are probably doing more harm than good to your eyes... Quote
