Oakley - Holbrook Sunglasses

Love the Holbrook and this weedgrain/Blue Water lense. However, I was out in really bright su light yesterday and they weren't up to the job. My other Holbrooks, with Tungsten polarised lenses, which has a 14% LTV as against the 12% of the Deep Water coped better, albeit I found them better than my Prizm Black Polar with 11% LTV. Bizarre but the weeodgrain does look good. Shadewas faultless. Recommended. Station service

I am loving my new sunglasses, but there were a couple things that threw me off about them.When I opened the package the lenses were seperate from the frames, which I wasn't expecting. I wrote a chat to you and the response was "go to an optometrist" so I went on Youtube and they showed me how to install the prescription lenses myself.Secondly, they did not come with a case, but with a sketchy little cloth bag, unlike the second pair I have on order (CA0690796522G) which hopefully will come with the free Oakley case as promised. But I'm still loving my new shades, and will send a photo when I get on the boat.Can I arrange to have an additional Oakley case included with my new order??? Thank you.

Disappointment, sugar quality, shipping is a joke

Disappointment overall in the lenses in regards to quality. They just seem cheap, easily breakable. The lenses arent complete tungsten copper color where it will block your eyes from being seen by other people. Shipping is a joke with DhL who will just transfer it to USPS after sitting on it. Oakley packages your glasses without giving a hoot. Just throw the glasses in an oversized box with no packing peanuts or even paper. Let em bounce around in there, that’s why you pay so much money right.

I’m “Cool” now! …but I’m still Hot!

First new sunglasses in over 20 years. I decided to go on my impulse and instinct with these frames/lenses. My first impression was immediate when I first saw them. Front page on this site, top middle pair, grabbed my attention right away. I probably should’ve gone with the “ice” Prizm color lenses, but somehow, the amber/red Iridium seemed more appropriate and appealing. As far as the actual optics are, I don’t know what the difference is between the two of them is, but I suspect they’re both decent in light and glare reduction. These Iridium lenses have a very soothing look that reduces glare and haze, sharpening your view in partly cloudy conditions when the sun’s rays are being refracted and scattered by thin layers of clouds. It was a pleasant experience for my ... MoreFirst new sunglasses in over 20 years. I decided to go on my impulse and instinct with these frames/lenses.

It was a pleasant experience for my eyes. My old glasses were less filtering and more darkening. I will certainly try Oakley again (Prizm lenses next time) and GlassesUSA be my first choice when ordering. Their phone operators and ordering procedures were quick and easy. There was a mistake made initially on my info but it was cleared up in minutes, friendly and apologetically. The order was shipped a couple of days later than they claimed on the website but I wasn’t inconvenienced by the delay. I was given a great price and couldn’t be happier with my purchase.

Lenses are too thick

I ordered my first pair of glasses from them back in January and I was not impressed with the craftsmanship at all so I sent them back. They suggested another Oakley frame and charged me the difference. Unfortunately they did not fit my face so I had to send them back to. Finally I asked them to send me a pair of Oakley Holbrook since I already had a pair of those for a few years and I knew they fit well. For some reason the lenses are really thick and they make the glasses heavy on my face, always sliding down my nose and making them very uncomfortable . I don’t understand this because I have a pair of Ray bands with the same prescription and the lenses are very thin and light. I’ll say that the people at Sport RX are friendly to deal with and they really do try to ... MoreI ordered my first pair of glasses from them back in January and I was not impressed with the craftsmanship at all so I sent them back.

I’m just sick of sending glasses back so I’ll use the Holbrooks for backup in case anything happens to my Ray Bans . Just a real bummer I paid so much for a pair of glasses and they could never seem to get them right.

Lightweight and comfortable!

I have yet to test if the Prizm lens enhances colour contrast more than a regular lens.So far, I like that glasses are lightweight so they will be comfortable for long outings such as hiking and snowshoeing. I haven’t tried Oakleys before but I had read that they have special technology at the nose area to prevent slipping when sweating. Quality and colour are as expected. Looking forward to putting that to the test soon!

Major quality issues

I just got my third pair of Holbrooks and the quality on them has gone down significantly despite them costing much more than my first two pairs. I cant believe how bad the plastic frames are now for a +$200 pair of glasses. You can feel and see the mold seam around the entire pair of glasses. It's sharp and pokes your ears when you put the glasses on. Astonished at how bad these have become after being in love with the glasses for the last 10 years.

Oakley Rx Sunglasses Frame

I chose Oakley because I know I am buying a sturdy frame that meets the standards of ophthalmic quality. I wanted an authentic frame to put prescription sunglass lenses into. When I found these Holbrook frames at a great price I jumped on them. I inspected the frames when they arrived and am very satisfied with my purchase. I sent the frames out to have my prescription lenses made. I'm looking forward to having a high quality pair of Oakley Holbrook sunglasses with my prescription.

Poor finish sunglasses. A big

Poor finish sunglasses. A big disappointment considering they cost so much. Sent them back, Just Sunnies rep told me they were all that way. So I ask why bother buying them with imperfections. They sent me another pair with the same faults. We aware that these people will sell Oakleys with imperfections. Maybe they are knock offs possibly. Look around nose area, the ends of the ear supports.
