I REALLY want those new straight jackets with the flames, but they don't make them in my prescription so I'm out of luck. Having bad eyes sucks for sunglasses!! Of course, after I wanted them and couldn't get them, both my dad and my brother in law just HAD to go out and get them. Now my dad gives me crap about his new straight jackets, and the fact that I can't get them.

Do they make these glasses in all one size? I mean some people have bigger heads than others. Do they come in different sizes?

I have a pair of square wires (metallic blue frame), a pair of black/black eye jackets, and a pair of X-Metal Juliets (silver frame, blue iridium lenses).

Oh yeah, they are all replicas :p

I've had the eye jackets for nearly two years and the square wires for about a year and they're still in fine condition. The Juliets are a few months old. I paid $12, $10, and $20, respectively.

After owning two pairs of Oakley Straight Jackets, I'll probably never by Oakley's again.

I switched to Rayban Titanium Ovals.

Bought five pairs of sunglasses in the last four years (lost one and <ahem> a BIG girl sat on another). Two pairs of Oakley Juliets (X Metal). Not the replica crap either. Also two pairs of Ray-Ban Orbs and a pair of Ray-Ban Prophecy. Looking at getting an Armani pair next.

oakleys owned by Oakley? HAHAHAHAAAA... LOL LOL LOL! :)

I got the A-Wire Black Iridium Lense.

I buy oakleys because their lenses are superb quality and they've got an amazing warrantee on their stuff. (warrantee covers everything except lense). Worst thing is, 1 week after I bought my Oakleys for $150, I dropped it onto a sharp metal object and scratched both lenses... though I didn't show it, deep down inside, I was breaking out in tears.

Anyway, I use to think that oakleys weren't worth it... my eyes were always sensitive to any slight variations caused by a poor quality lense. For example, if I wear a pair of $20 shades, I get dizzy after about 10 minutes. then I went to $80 shades (forgot brand name) and they were better, but I felt the effects after 1-2hrs. Oakleys, I could wear for a good 10hrs staright without any discomfort. Once again, SUPERIOR quality... I'm looking for another pair of shades, and you can bet that it's gonna be another pair of oakleys... It's dam worth it.
