Oakleys 2025

CAdeltaLipRipper reply :

I'm getting a pair of Oakley straight jackets soon.Do any of you have any Oakleys? I know theyre top of the line glasses but i'd like to hear it from other fisherman's perspective besides KVD

potbass reply :

Oakleys are amazing, and you won't regret them. I used to fish with Oakleys, but i've since switched to Costa Del Mar because i love the quality of their polarized lenses.

But Oakley are an excellent choice, you can't go wrong with them 8-)

bassnleo reply :

I currently have the straight jackets.

I also had half jackets and fives, sold those.

The lenses are good, no doubt.

I found that they do not fit me all that well. The other issue I had, the arms are the straight style (not curved downward like most conventional glasses). When I wear a hat the back of the arms always hit my cap (most of my caps are the softer low profile style), That is really annoying. I found myself having to wear the arms over the hat.

So, in a nutshell, the sunglasses are quality but I found they just were not for me.

Fishing Doug reply :

I use the Flak Jacket XLJ's and just ordered another pair today. Big fan.

RippinLips86 reply :

I have a pair of polarized gas cans they are awesome. The hd lenses are wicked clear and sharp.

KevO reply :

I have the monster dogs they are great for fishing!

Dock Master reply :

I have got RX Flak Jackets they are very comfortable and let you see in the water great.

The Rx is nice so I don't have to wear my contacts and run the risk of something happening and have to take them. If that happened it would suck because I am blind as a bat without my contacts or glasses.

burleytog reply :

I don't know how anyone can stand to wear those uncomfortable things.

Adam Harbuck reply :

Been wearing "those uncomfortable things" since 1986, lost count of all of the different styles or names, but I love them.

fourbizz reply :

Ive had half a dozen pair over the years. Right now I have a pair of Polarized Monster Dogs. They are great as sunglasses, my Costas are better fishing glasses though.

grimboy reply :

I Have a pair of gas-cans polarized work great, thinking about a pair of straitjackets.

Kelly J reply :

i had a couple set of half jackets but switched over to rudy project glasses cause they seem to fit my face better but there is nothing wrong with aokleys they are really nice glasses

7mm-08 reply :

I've been wearing M-frames for years and love them.

CAdeltaLipRipper reply :

Aren't their lenses like indestructible?

bryand82487 reply :

I'm sure the Oakley's will work great. I've got 2 pair but neither are polarized. I fish with a pair of copper glass polarized 580 costa del mar glasses. I don't think you can beat the clarity of costas. The only downfall is that since the lenses are glass they can break easier.

dmac14 reply :

I got a pair and they're great. They feel comfortable to me, I hardly notice they are on.

Smiths.R reply :

I have a pair of half jackets, the fishing specific ones. They're amazing.

bowtech_182 reply :

I have the polarized fives and am very happy with them.

TBendBassin reply :

i own a pair of costas and straight jackets........ OAKLEY STRAIGHT JACKETS ALL THE WAY

RippinLips86 reply :

its hard to beat the HD lenses and there not indestructible but some models are ballistics rated

shimanogloomis man reply :

I own a pair of the flak jacket with the shallow blue lense perfect for sight fishing and very comfy ;D

RippinLips86 reply :

I saw an add yesterday for WileyX doing fishing glasses now. If i recall correctly they are designed for combat. Next thing you know CCI will be making fishing glasses. Did I miss the memo where we are going to war with the LMB???

I know wiley x are awesome and used in combat but im pretty sure oakleys are too. Ive watched youtube videos where they do tests on them and they take a lot

Amazingly so. I've seen shrapnel deflect off the side of them. It scratched up the lenses real bad, but not a scratch on my buddy's face. He was wearing some ballistic M-Frames.
