My Gascans arrived a couple of days ago. They looked even better in person than the pictures on amazon. I was very pleased when took them out the box. They came earlier than the vendor stated, would definately buy from this seller again. Perfect fit, very comfortable, and good coverage of sun blocking. I love the tint on the lense,they really brighten everything,and are great for cutting down on glare and contrast. The bronze is not to dark either. These are large and have somewhat bling styling, maynot be for everyone. One of the reviews I read earlier said that they didnt fit,but he stated that he was an average size guy. Well Oakley states that they are made for large melons. They make a Gascan small,that are styled a little diferently,and fit a little tighter. I would suggest to anyone to go to the mall and try on a pair before ordering. Sunglasses are like shoes,they all fit differently.

Seems like a lot of the negative reviews are from people who didn't "test drive" the glasses or do much research on the glasses before purchasing them. Oakleys are not cheap, by any means. They have a variety of glasses that serve different purposes and have different fits and lens shades. I have the polarized Straight Jackets and they fit me great. The Gascans, IMO, are more for a "fashion statement" as they had somewhat of a loose fit. They would not be well-suited for sports but would probably be great for driving or hanging around the pool. I use my Straight Jacket's for bike riding, driving, shooting, etc and they are an all-around great fitting pair of glasses with rubberized frame "sleeves" that help keep your glasses in place. Do your homework before spending $150+ for glasses!

I absolutely love these Oakleys, they fit my face perfect and are very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. The durability of these things is amazing, I drop them all the time and they come through with minor scratches. These are the best shades you can purchase.

I've always wanted an original pair of Oakley's and ever since I tried on my friends Gascan's I knew I wanted a pair of them. They fit perfectly and do a nice job of reducing glare, you can even look directly at the sun without your eyes boiling out of your sockets or something haha. I've dropped them twice since I got them and they don't scratch at all, you can't beat the Oakley name and for this price you should buy two!

Got them on sale for $65 normally $90. Oakley's website say that they are made of "exclusive O matter material", yeah that's
called plastic. They look really good and they fit my face well. After awhile of being worn they start to hurt my head right above my ears, the temple arms that rest on the side of your head are designed poorly that cause pain after extended use. Don't get me wrong I Really like them, but definitely overpriced. Made in America means steeper price but come on their PLASTIC.

These glasses are just amazing. They do not look very dark but they definately work. They reduce glare and brightness but they are not too dark as to when you wear them going inside that you are momentarily blind. They look great on too. Oakley's GasCans are EXCELLENT!

these are pretty nice sunglasses. i love the shape and design. only things that didnt get these glasses 5 stars is they are a little big(slide off the top of my head once in a while) and the lenses arent as dark as id like. other than that they are awesome.

As others have already reported these sunglasses are elegant but they have a very narrow bridge (16) and they do not sit well on the nose. If you bend over they tend to fall off and if you use them while driving your peripheral vision will be somewhat restricted. If you decide to get them, I would astrongly recommend to go and try them first at your local oakley dealer and then order them on line since the amazon price is far away unbeatable. In addition, the arm of these glasses is a bit too wide and if you intend to wear them quite often under the sun, you have to count with a thick white stripe above your ear up to yor eye. Despite the fact that the frame is made of plastic most of the opticians refuse to warm them in order to readjust them on your face. Be aware.

you need an abnormally large head for these, they fall off all the time, i have another pair of Oaklys and they fit snug and a little tight.

These glasses looked even better in person and it came quicker than I had expected. They were priced right and I would recommend buying these.
