I went to the O store today and the A frames didn't fit (well) over my glasses...is there a set of goggles that fit over my 3rd and 4th eye? Carbon fiber look is a must :D

You do know that Oakley makes Rx inserts for their glasses right? You should also check out Rudy Project's (http://www.rudyprojectusa.com/) stuff also. I like the way they implemented their Rx.

Skunk-
The Oakley Over The Glasses (OTG) model is the e-frame. Its not nearly as cool as the a-frame and I'm not sure if the frame comes in carbon fiber. I happen to have a pair of Briko OTG's that are black (sorry not carbon) and look very robocop/tactical. As good lens quality as Oakley. You can take a look at www.briko.com (OTG model). If you think that might work, mine are barely used and mint. They're pricey new, but I got them pretty cheap from the rep if your interested.

Sports gear marches off to war

By Sal Ruibal, USA TODAY

IRVINE, Calif. — In the world of adventure sports, the Oakley brand is closely associated with avant-garde eyewear and funky, fashionable shoes. But away from the fun and games, the Southern California company also is cranking out optically perfect sniper glasses, silent assault boots for covert operations and laser-proof goggles to protect Special Forces troops calling in smart bomb attacks.


High-performance gear originally designed for sports is now being used by elite combat units. These military goggles were designed by Oakley.

Yep. What can I say. Tactical, utilitarian and carbon fiber. Right up my alley.

Skunk, you need a pair of these for those really, really cold n' windy (out in AZ) days on the range. :D
Ooh! Right! You can't wear your glasses with these. Get contacts.:p
