Pros: Comfortable, Optimal clarity, No glare
It's been close to three months after purchasing my first pair of Oakley sunglasses. I must say, I am in love. These glasses have completely changed my perspective of athletic sunglasses, I refuse to wear any others.
Some of the advantages that I have found through wearing the Flakjackets are not only do they cut down a very large amount of glare but also seemingly improve your vision. When cycling and rowing, I've found that glasses always stay in position and it is extremely rare that I have to adjust them. They are feather-light and after wearing them for a short amount of time you often forget they are even on your face. When racing, I put full trust into them they won't fog up and the hydrophobia will keep my vision clear... so far I haven't run into any problems.
As for the cons- they lens scratch fairly easily and you'll end up finding yourself cleaning the glasses often as a little fingerprint smudge is very visible when wearing them. However, cleaning is a breeze. Just pull out your microfiber bag (that comes in the box) and they'll be shining like they're brand new. Another thing I've noticed is the ear socks tend to be slightly small and/or move around on the frame.
To sum it all up
Pros- No glare, comfortable, light, stylish, water runs off (hydrophobia)
Cons- scratch easily, some parts move, shows dust/oil
