Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Oakley was created for world-class athletes, those who see the limits of possibility as just another challenge. Their dedication drives the brand to look beyond the conventional ideas of industry standards. It's in Oakley's DNA to identify problems, create inventions, and wrap those inventions in art. And simply to make things better than anyone thought possible. Decades of Oakley innovation have been awarded more than 540 patents that elevate physics to the level of art. Technologies transcend sports to enhance the lives of consumers, and more than 110 countries now enjoy a full array of market-leading products including premium sunglasses, goggles, prescription eyewear, apparel, footwear and accessories. These products represent Oakley's commitment to excellence - a passion that redefines what is possible for those who defy their own limits.

Product Description

Back in the day, aviators had flat lenses and simple barrel hinges, but thanks to the Oakley Plantiff Sunglasses, those days are long gone. Now lightweight alloy frames rock burly leaf-spring style hinges that let the Plantiff's arms flex past the point of no return to easily slide on your face. Curved optics not only maximize peripheral vision but also add dimensional style, and do so without gnarly distortion. We could go on and on, and eventually say something about afterburners and 4G inverted dives, but that's probably unnecessary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Look, Oakley Tech, March 15, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Oakley Men's Plaintiff Aviator Sunglasses (Apparel)
Oakley sunglasses are always ahead of the curve when it comes to the latest optics, materials, and fashion. It's a bit much for those of us that don't snowboard for a living, but the Plaintiff brings all of the Oakley tech into a classic look. They're deceptively simple looking, an aviator that doesn't look much different than a pair of Ray Bans or a cheap pair you'd get at the drug store. But they are.

First, the stems are soft and pliant. You'll barely feel them and because they "grip" rather than needing to hook over your ears, they're comfortable without shifting. There's also an ingenious little spring that works very well and is stronger than it looks. Once on, they're very nice. The curve Oakley has put on the lenses gives much more protection for the peripheral vision. Trying these on back to back with a pair of normal, flat aviators will surprise you. There is some "edge bleed" around the nose, but no more than on a regular pair, tho significantly more than more Oakleys.

The materials are all top notch, the Oakley logos are subtle, and the look is (again) classic. If you want to look like you're in the X Games, these aren't for you. If you want a great pair of sunglasses, they are.

5.0 out of 5 stars great sunglasses but............., May 23, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
These are great sunglasses. I love them and received many compliments on them. I work in the airwing of the Marine Corps and many of the Pilots were envious of my glasses. The only problem was they broke about two weeks after I received them. The hinge that connects the lens to the ear bar became bent. Luckily, Amazon has a great return policy and sent me a new pair right away. I live happily ever after.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice pair of sunglasses, January 3, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I purchased this pair of sunglasses a couple of months ago and I'm using it almost everyday. I got the matte black with warm grey lenses.
They look very good, specially if you have a big face (like me) and you like the RB aviator style. This have a very similar fit to the RB aviators 62mm, not so straight looking, covering a little bit more of your face.
Very lightweight, I use them all the time for driving (I drive for an hour everyday and hardly notice i have them on!) or as a lifestyle pair.
The lenses although scratch very easily so be careful, and purchase a case to carry them around with the microfiber bag. I've been trying to get some replacement lenses and they don't seem to exist online at least... so, as I said, take very good care of them!
Like any pair of aviators, they are a little big fragile, so be careful not to sit or step on them, doesn't really matter if they're o-Matter and everything, they'll probably break.
Bottomline: Great pair, but take good care of them.
