h2. RADAR PITCH Sunglasses The most demanding sport professionals in the world have fueled 30 years of Oakley innovation. Athletes have won more championships and medals with our sunglasses than with any other single sport product on earth. The heritage continues with Oakley RADAR, a milestone in performance technology. MAINTAINS SHARP, CLEAR VISION RADAR features Oakley HYDROPHOBIC™, a permanent lens coating that prevents rain and sweat from building up on the lens. It also repels skin oils and other contaminates, so the lens is smudge resistant and easy to keep clean. It even eliminates static electricity, so dirt and dust particles won't cling. STAYS AHEAD OF THE SUN RADAR lets you change lenses in seconds to optimize vision in any sport environment. Many performance lens colors are available, and all lenses feature the unbeatable clarity of Oakley's HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®). OFFERS A SECURE, CUSTOM FIT Choose the nosepiece that gives you the best fit — two sizes are included with every frame. Like the stem sleeves, they're made of UNOBTAINIUM® to increase grip with perspiration. Oakley's Three-Point Fit optimizes comfort and holds the lenses in precise optical alignment for superior clarity. OPTIMIZES COMFORT, PROTECTION AND CLARITY RADAR is made of lightweight O MATTER® for all-day comfort. To keep the heat of competition from swamping you with sweat, the frame geometry creates a cooling flow of air. Pure PLUTONITE® lens material filters out 100% of all UV, and RADAR meets ANSI Z87.1 standards for impact protection. The semi-rimless design means there's no frame rim to block downward view. Optical clarity exceeds all ANSI Z87.1 standards, and patented POLARIC ELLIPSOID™ geometry extends razor-sharp vision all the way to the lens periphery. Durability and all-day comfort of lightweight, stress-resistant O Matter® frame material Integrated surge ports to channel cooling airflow Optimized peripheral view and side coverage of Polaric Ellipsoid™ lens geometry Comes standard with Oakley Hydrophobic/Oleophobic anti-smudge lens coating on all lens options Comfort and performance of Three-Point Fit that holds lenses in precise optical alignment Metal icon accents Optical precision and performance that meets all ANSI Z87.1 standards Impact resistance that meets all ANSI Z87.1 standards for high-mass and high-velocity impact UV protection of Plutonite® lens that filters out 100% of UVA / UVB / UVC & harmful blue light up to 400nm Glare reduction and tuned light transmission of Iridium® lens coating Interchangeable lenses to optimize performance in any environment Multiple interchangeable Unobtainium® nose pad options for customizable and comfortable secure fit Protective sports-specific Oakley Soft Vault included with capacity for an extra lens Available with Oakley Prescription Lenses (+2.00 to -5.00 with cylinder up to -2.00)

Pros: Comfortable, Optimal clarity, No glare
Great pair of glasses. Black lenses are very dark (as expected) so you need a bright day to wear them. Plenty of lens choices. I am buying a yellow or gold insert for grey or cloudy days. I bought them for triathlons but wear them for golf, driving and skiing too.

Pros: Comfortable, Optimal clarity Cons: Uncomfortable, straight temples a bit snug, polorized way spendy
I bought 2 pairs,one with the straight temples and the other "cycling" temples at an Oakley vault so lens shape was not a choice and the pitch has good coverage but lightly touch my cheekbones when wearing my bike helmet. I have a big melon so the straight temples are snug but i can live with it. Optics are typical Oakley, meaning they rule. Durability remains to be seen but i've been an Oakley fan from way back(factory pilots,blades) so 15 bucks(thats what it used to be) for new frames is doable. Lenses are spendy but that has always been the case

A great sport performance Oakley
Date: June 30, 2009
Pros: Durable, Optimal clarity
I have the USA color way oakleys with this lens. The shape tends to fit my needs as far as coverage goes. Great golfing lens lets air through and the black iridium helped alot out in the sun. I do have a pair of Ice iridium lens I use now and then, I didnt have much of a problem getting them in and out. I guess it depends on your technique. I am also not a fan of the tight ear stems but those can be adjusted pretty easily. But still I am a huge fan of the Radar Pitch and they are certainly a great sports Oakley.

ok
Date: June 9, 2009
Pros: Optimal clarity Cons: Uncomfortable, design
Let me start by saying I LOVE oakley, every pair of shades I buy are oakleys, but these are the one and only exception. I bought these for lifeguarding and they are so annoying. They are way too narrow. My major problem is the design, the assembly and taking apart is nerve-racking. I have followed the directions and the lens bends and is easily scratched by the awkward nosepiece. I am sorry to say that I am extremely disappointed by these shades. If I could I would trade these for some good, reliable M frames. I will always continue to buy from oakley but never will be purchasing Radars again.
