yeah, $400 for a pair of sunglasses with 256mb attached. fuck that, go get an old flash player or something for cheap on ebay and buy a pair of oakley's, max it'll cost you is $200

to the person who said they weren't practical... for sports they are extremely practical. by integrating an mp3 player and headphones into the glasses they've eliminated all chords. now if you're running or doing something else you never have to worry about snagging a chord or putting something in a pocket or whatever. i still don't think i'd personally buy them, but it IS a good idea

they are probably really fragile, heavy and uncomfortable. but what batteries would you use for something like that?

I tried these on at the Oakley office in Quebec before they hit the shelves... They are not heavy and I think that it was a great idea by Oakley to come out with this.

They are very comfortable, its fucking oakley there not going to make a bigtime product without the comfort issue coming up, I have had a pair on and they are light and comfortable. You dont even notice the shit on the side. They bump too.. I would get a pair if i ahd the money for DH in the summer.

The thing you have to remember when talking about Oakley stuff, is that not all of it is designed to be sold to the average consumer. How many people can buy a $25,000 watch? I know I can't and never would, but there are people out there that can and will. They have no limits, they're Oakley.
I dont know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
