Oakley Men's Square Whisker Sunglasses Review

I received these sunglasses, in the polarized black, as a gift. I was initially very excited, as they were the nicest pair I had yet owned. Unfortunately, despite taking great care of them, they began falling apart within just a few months. The screw holding one of the lenses in came out, causing the lens to fall to the asphalt where it was scratched. I put the lens back in, put the screw back in and tightened the same screw on the opposite side. A week later, the other lens fell out. Then the original one fell out again, completely losing the screw this time. I sent the glasses back to Oakley, at which point they told me they would replace the faulty frames for $50, which seems ridiculous since the frames were poorly made to begin with. Why should I have to pay to replace something you didn't make right in the first place? Also, despite the lenses having been scratched as a result of their frames falling apart, they said that since I had no way of proving that's how the lenses became scratched they would not replace them, and wanted me to pay for the replacement lenses as well, another $45. I was shocked by how awful their customer support was, and how little they cared to stand by such an expensive product. I won't be giving Oakley any of my money. My recommendation: buy some Native sunglasses instead. Less expensive, more durable, far better warranty.
Oh, and when Oakley sent the unrepaired glasses back to me, they had repackaged them poorly and the lenses were WAY more scratched up than when I sent them. Again, Oakley said they had no way of verifying that they had damaged the lenses, and would not be replacing them for me. Great customer service.

The Square Whisker utilizes the same C-5™ alloy that made Oakley's original design so unbelievably comfortable and durable. This latest creation is a thin frame that's big on style, thanks to digital sculpturing along its sleek temples. This pair of sunglasses was engineered with tuned flexibility so the fit can adapt to your head while maintaining just the right amount of subtle pressure. Unobtainium on the stems increases grip with perspiration to keep the frame securely in place. It's part of the Three-Point Fit, a way to maximize comfort by ensuring the frame makes contact only at the bridge of the nose and the sides of the head. The combination of C-5™ alloy and durable Plutonite lens material meets all ANSI Z80.3 impact protection standards. This eyewear also meets ANSI Z80.3 standards for optical performance, and the clarity extends across the entire lens surface. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) uses just a small area of the lens for testing — the zone directly in front of the eye — but thanks to XYZ OPTICS®, Oakley can extend clarity all the way to the lens periphery. That's a major achievement, considering the 8.75-base lens curvature that improves protection against sun, wind and side impact.
