Great for Running -
The Oakley Flak Jacket is outstanding for running. Many other sunglasses are too heavy or unbalanced and thus bounce on your nose. The Flak Jacket stays put on the run. With the exception of the M-Frame, this is the only model that stays where you want it and is the best I've worn. I can't speak for other brands since I'm partial to Oakley. Looks good, too!

Fantastic Golf Sunglasses -
I recently bought Oakley's Flak Jacket XLJ in black with the G30 Golf Specific Iridium Lens. They are great! I am a woman and the fit on these sunglasses is perfect - absolutely no slipping no matter how much I perspire. The optical quality is top-notch. The lens is a pinkish iridescent-looking lens and is wonderful for golf. I actually feel like I can see more clearly with these sunglasses than without them. I previously wore Oakley's M-Frame with the same color lens, but it was a one-piece sweep lens and it cracked in half just above the bridge. Over the past 10 years I had 3 of them that broke. The last one broke within the 1-year warranty and Oakley replaced the lens within a week. I'm much happier with the Flak Jacket XLJ because it has 2 separate lenses and therefore will not have the same problem as the M-Frame. I had my new sunglasses in 2 days from Zappos. Zappos is the best, no matter what you order. This is the first time I ordered anything other than sneakers. I am amazed at the variety of products they have to offer and will continue to order from them in the future. P.S. If you are looking for a good pair of sunglasses for golf, these are the ones.

Oakley Flak Jacket XLJ Asian Fit -
I was hesitant to buy these because at time of purchase the regular fit was $40 less. I am SO glad I went with these! They fit great for my face! I get compliments on them a lot and when I go on bike rides they don't get stuck in the helmet straps like other sunglasses have before.
Buy these if you’re an Asian, you will not be disappointed! Whilst cooking I unfortunately swiped a lens across my oven's hood and a small "v" shaped scratch appeared! I hope to replace the lenses with polarized ones soon!
"A+"

Excellent glasses -
These glasses fit great. If you sweat, they actually gain grip power too. The lens does not permit water to remain on it...its coated with something that just sheds the water right off, so when I am in the pool, I can still see just fine. These lenses snap in/out so you can change them if needed (less tint or different color or even clear). These are NOT polarized although they do come in a polarized version. The lens size does a good job of blocking sun. I like them better than my Maui Jim Sport glasses.
Other brands recommended by reviewer: These come with a normal (non XJC lens) for a smaller look - or consider the Oakley BottleCaps

Best online experience ever!
Excellent customer service. Amazing price matching. Lightning fast shipping. I have made close to 10 purchases at Zappos.com and I have yet to come across anything that is even remotely negative.
I LOVE the personal cards I receive after each purchase.
THANK YOU ZAPPOS for making online shopping experience truly wonderful.

They’re real nice, best sunglasses I’ve ever owned...Zappos.com is real quick with the shipping (and no cost) and has great prices…the only thing is what (if any) kind of solution can you clean these glasses with? On the instructions it says don’t use any kind of cleaning solution because of the type of lens. Is there anything out there that wouldn't be harsh on the lens?

Best I've owned -
I bought the Flak Jackets about 2 weeks ago and all I can say is they are perfect for me. I hardly notice they are on and not once have they slipped. I bought them mainly for when I go out riding my mountain bike and I don't regret the purchase.
I strongly recommend these to anyone looking for multi purpose sunglasses.

Oakley has a winner here...
I wore the Half Jackets for 3 years and swore by them. Then I saw the Flak Jackets online. I bought a pair and have to say, they get compliments all the time. I went for the XLJ lens and they provide even more coverage then the Half Jacket XLJ lens. No more light leaking in on the sides or bottom. A perfect fit. The new lenses have a coating on them that really do resist sweat and water. It just beads off the lens. Get these! By the way, the service that Zappos provides is unbelievable. Quickest shipping EVER. I needed a replacement pair sent to replace a defective pair. Replacement order placed on Sunday, Monday was a holiday, Received Tues mid afternoon! Great job Zappos!

New lenses are great -
Good as ever Oakley’s now better with this new sports lens.
Rain, sweat, oils don't impair vision with these new glasses nearly as quickly as old fashioned technology. Great for active, outdoor use. Even in hot Florida.

 |  | Best Shipping -
...You guys all know how UGG boots are comfortable so I don’t need to say anything, but what you guys don't know is that I ordered the boot for my daughter on Monday at 3pm and believe me, Thursday or the next day at 2:30pm the UPS truck stopped at my home to drop it off. Zappos has the best costumer service in the USA. I pay regular shipping and they update my order...well should I say more? Maybe for them one thing, thank you, thank you, and thank you Zappos. |  | ~ Grasa, November 07 2008
