OT who in the Heck came up with these Racing Sunglasses?
Since Nascar has gotten so big -so has ugly sunglasses that the drivers wear.
I am looking for some glasses to replace my Oakely M frames I am finding more garbage than anything else. Take Oakley for example I used have to spend hours trying to choose the ones I liked the best. Now I have to spend hours to find ONE I Like? they all look like all the Jackie O sunglasses of the 60's!!
Seems like the Nascar drivers glasses are influencing all the styles!
Sheesh!!!

CJ As long as they dont look like somthing Jeff Gordon wears and they dont look like the
wrap around my whole head like those 110 year old people wear. I like Oakley blades
from my baseball career and spending tournament after tournament in California and Nevada
patrolling left field.

OK...so you can wear them next year when you turn 110!!
I have the Oakley X-frames with my prescription...bought two sets 'cuz I knew the style would be gone in 6 months....Oh, the horror of wearing the Jackie O's

+1 for the Maui Jims
Maui Jim sponsored Team Lexus for three seasons and also made glasses for the Lexus catalog. Lexus is "****-choosy" about the products they partner with and the glasses take a LOT of abuse.
Incredible quality, polarized and MUCH more tasteful than the "in" crap that is on the market at the moment. Also, Maui Jim fit very well in the tight confines of a full face helmet because the arms are VERY pliable.
For what it's worth,
Chuck

Are you serious? Those are really Oakley's and people (human beings) wear them? You just found an odd pair of shades and photo shoped them; right?
If not, then I totally messed up on the redesign of my car; I need to get back to the drawing board.

I found the perfect solution for you. If the GT3 is not menacing enough to keep others at bay..... Oakleys, no less......
