INMATE Polished Gold/Dark Grey (05-630)

INMATE Polished Gold/Dark Grey (05-630)

INMATE Sunglasses We don't mind being repeat offenders when it comes to thrashing the world's idea of performance, and we're not above taking a two-fisted approach when we see what passes for style. Take a look at INMATE sunglasses and you'll see why it busts out of the shackles that keep ordinary shades restrained, sedate and spineless. Assertive style with a honed edge, it's a look that refuses to be caged or even take orders, for that matter. Five metal compounds are fused to create durable C-5™, a lightweight alloy that unlocks comfort. The frame makes contact only at the nose bridge and temples, thanks to a Three-Point Fit that utilizes UNOBTAINIUM® components to increase grip with sweat. HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®) offers unbelievable clarity while letting us contour the lenses to open up your peripheral view. Our PLUTONITE® lens material blocks 100% of all UVA, UVB and UVC, and even stops harmful blue light up to 400nm. When it comes to impact protection, INMATE meets all ANSI Z80.3 Industrial Standards. Ultra-lightweight hi-modulus C-5™ frame material Optimized peripheral vision and side protection of twin toric lens curvature Comfort and performance of Three-Point Fit that holds lenses in precise optical alignment Optical precision and performance that meets all ANSI Z80.3 standards Impact resistance that meets all ANZI Z80.3 standards UV protection of Plutonite® lens material that filters out 100% of UVA/UVB/UVC & harmful blue light Glare reduction and tuned light transmission of Iridium® lens coating (optional) Patented hydrophilic Unobtanium® earsocks ensure a snug, secure fit

INMATE
Date: October 19, 2009
Pros: Optimal clarity, Stylish, modern
Cons: little heavy

I just bought these this past weekend and are amazing. They are replacing my 3 year old Crosshairs. Pretty similar in style but much cleaner lines and sharper look than the Crossharis. They fit perfect however slightly heavy (which is no big deal). Great all around!

I was looking for a great pair of shades that wont break the budget and would suit my everyday lifestyle. I'm a college student and I spend roughly 3-5 hours outdoors (walking, reading, jogging etc) and these sunglasses fit my lifestyle PERFECTLY.

Best pair of sunglasses ever!
Date: July 3, 2009
Pros: Durable, Optimal clarity, No glare, light-weight
Cons: gets dirty easily and often

At first I thought the lenses would be too big, but they are the sweetest pair of shades I've ever seen. Even with the dark grey lens they offer perfect viewing even in the shade. I also tried the black iridium lenses and the viewing quality was so clear it was like I didn't even have them on. It was like watching HD TV. Even though they're not designed for active use, I went for a run in them and they stayed firm on my face and didn't bounce around. A lot of people have told me how good they look, and I liked how they were in the lower price range. My advice would be to get the metal vault to protect them and save the cloth pouch for cleaning.

Awesome take on Aviators!!!
Date: June 11, 2009
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Optimal clarity, No glare

I purchased these on a whim from my wife. I was in the market for a GOOD pair of aviators that fit my face structure, with my larger than normal cheekbone structure. that's hard in and of itself.

Tried these on for the first time in the store, and they fit like a glove to my temples, ears and head. They have a wider than normal temple arch just to get around people with larger heads, (something I would normally stay away from because it makes your head look even bigger wearing glasses) but it does not stick out like those of other models. Completely covers my eyes, both side-to-side and up-down peripherals, and gives me that sleek look no matter if I'm stuck in my suits, or if I'm wearing just my trunks and glasses. Fits into any situation, from formal to beach side, cuts ALL glare down to nothing, even when staring at the beach sunsets.

One Tough Wire
Date: May 31, 2009
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Optimal clarity, No glare
Cons: stylish

The Inmate immediately appealed to me because it came across as very fashionable piece but still maintaining the aggressive look Oakley's typically have.
Inmate is also suprisingly a very durable wire. Which is a plus because I have always had to handle wires with a kit glove.

It's my favourite choice when I need to rock up to Poker game, funeral or wedding. Maybe not in that order.
So when u need to look the goods in a "bag of fruit" (3 piece suit). The Inmate is the perfect accessory to complement the package.

Great take on aviators
Date: May 20, 2009
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Optimal clarity

I love this uber aggessive take on an old stand-by...the aviator. More squared off and edgy then the crosshairs, also seem more fashionable because of this. I consider my head normal sized, and these are very large, but thus, they give a very "in" oversized look. Polished chrome/VR28 is an awesome colorway and IMO the most versatile of the group (though I own 4 different pairs). This pair can be very dressy in a suit, giving a great "finished" look, or worn with a flat bill...giving a very edgy, "rock-star" look.
