Amazon.com Product Description

When Oakley takes the minimalist approach, they do it with weight, not technology. That’s why the Nanowire packs three decades of optical innovation into an ultra-low mass design. For a comfortable weight that borders on zero gravity, Oakley combined titanium alloy stems with rimless architecture. Memory metal creates sculptural contours without sacrificing flexibility, so the adaptable fit is a work of art. But the true art is in the world-class optical science. The unbeatable clarity of High Definition Optics (HDO®) has been matched with the finest technologies ever to tame light rays. This pair of sunglasses blocks glare with 99% polarization efficiency, thanks to the best polarized optics on the planet. The permanent Hydrophobic lens coating repels water, skin oils and dust. Iridium lens coating balances light to optimize vision. Polaric Ellipsoid geometry opens your peripheral view and maximizes clarity at all angles of vision. When it comes to UV, not a single ray makes it through the pure Plutonite lens material.

4.0 out of 5 stars almost perfect..., September 12, 2009

When I got these, the looks definitely struck me. They look like they mean business, yet not a bit flashy. They are very clean and classy. So if you're looking for something to make you look like you're there for a purpose, these are it. But they won't make you look as if you need attention. I love that!

When I first put them on I did notice how light they are. I've had glasses that are as light, but not with a lens this size. What I didn't like was the fact that it didn't sit on my face very well. The nose bridge didn't meet my nose very well, but given that I'm Asian, this is to be expected. Luckily the nose bridge piece is removable and adjustable. After trying out a few different adjustments, I got them to fit great. I Also noticed that the bottom of the lens was rubbing on face a bit. This was because the ear stems were obviously set for someone with a bigger face. I actually detached them from the lens and adjust the screw-pin. This also did the trick. Once everything was perfect, I found them quite nice. The optics are wonderfully clear. The lens size and shape make it so it pretty much covers my entire field of vision, making it seem as if I'm not wearing them. The one complaint I would have is that because of the very flexible "memory" titanium ear-stem, the fit is somewhat soft so I doubt they would be as snug as, say, my Oakley "Whiskers", which feel like they're glued on. But these are definitely more comfortable to wear, an acceptable trade-off. These are my 7th pair of Oakleys and I can say they are the best in most areas. I probably wouldn't be too active in them. I'll leave that to my "Zero" and "Whisker". But they'll be my favorite driving glasses and my favorite for a night on the town for sure. But shelling out $300 for them will obviously make me very mindful of where I take them. They ARE pretty expensive even for Oakleys.
