Oakley Radar Path Model 09-674

Have just purchased these http://www.oakley.com/pd/4675 fairly expensive but just wondering if anybody has them. Have never had a pair of Oakleys before. Are they any good.

i've got black ones and a couple of alternate lenses, including some clear for night/winter

they're great, fit well over helmet straps, don't slip when things get sweaty, comfy all day

the coating works well, sheds rain and doesn't get fingermarked easily

I have them with Ice lenses and persimmon.
These are my 5th pair of Oakleys so I'll say no more regarding quality.
I wear prescription glasses (and contacts) with poor quality sunglasses I can really tell.Oakley are the best I've found.
You get what you pay for

Ask most opticians what they think of Oakleys, there all tell you the same.......Quality. Been wearing them since the late 1980's, think im on about my 20th pair now...and I ain't gonna change any time soon. 8) 8)

I swapped from cheapy glasses to Oakley Radars a year ago (mostly due to steaming up issues on the MTB), I think they're good but not convinced the price is justified, however they are definetly better than my old £25 ones.

That said Oakley have pissed me off with the Transition lens for Radars - you can't buy them as lens only which is a joke. They did actually offer to sell me direct some from their warranty replacement stock but wanted £110 inc P&P, given you can get the complete glasses with the VR50 transition lens for £145 from some on-line places I'm just going to go that route.

I also wouldn't say the lens are particularly scratch resistant, I'm pretty careful with mine but my clears have some scratches on them so if you're ham fisted you might be a little disappointed

Good price for that particular pair at Cycle Store...

I've got those exact ones. Very comfortable, quality glasses. Look great aswell. Definitely worth the money.

Have Radar Range in my prescription.
Cost just over 230.
A damn sight better looking and cheaper than my normal pair of glasses.
Just about the best quality one could hope for....
only downside I didnt go for a fancy iridium finish, but a vr28 tint
but that makes them a little more wearable off the bike imo

These are my second pair of Oakleys and are definitely the best glasses that I have ever owned. I got mine in the Livestrong colours from eBay. I know that there are a lot of fakes around but mine are real, I bought them from an eBay shop that was also a real optometrist in Birmingham. Much cheaper £104 for livestrong colours, the other colour schemes may be more.

I have previously owned cheap glasses but oakleys are definitely worth the extra cash. The fact the lense has no distortion like cheaper more flexible lenses is excellent. I also like the fact if someone fires a Quarter-inch steel shot traveling at 102 mph my eyes will survive, not sure about my underpants though. They also look good and can be bought at massive discounts if you swap around.

I currently have a pair of retina burn jawbones and a pair of juliets, next purchase will be carbon radars.

I have Polarised Red Jawbones for daily wear (they're great as casual glasses IMO, well the black ones are).

On the bike I have what's basically a golf array. Radar Black Frame with a G30 lens (pitch shape) for low contrast and a gold iridium range lense for bright weather. The gold one is incredible.
