I have had these glasses for 4 months and they have been the best sunglasses ive ever had. Ive wore flaks, straights, gascans, and monster dogs, and out of all the Oakleys ive worn this pair has been the best ive ever worn.

Returning to the Motel after a day's work. Just washed off the mud under the tap and went out on the town. An everyday thing in the life driller.
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Optimal clarity, No glare, well driller approved
i've had a pair of Black Iridium WHISKER's for almost a year and a half and have loved them through every second.
extremely durable is the only words that i can say about them. i am a driller by trade and have worn them every working day since i got them. They've been covered in drilling mud, dirt, hit by errant drill bits and rods, sustained a direct blow by a face first fall off a 10 foot platform onto hard packed clay, and every other kind of extreme conditions that should have broken them... but they just laughed in the face of that danger. after a year and a half of that torture, the only flaws that have come up are a tiny scratch on the lower left lens and the soft rubber ear pads have begun to split (something i fixed on the job with electrical shrink tubing)
sadly, they've broken finally, just yesterday. they stood up to all that abuse, but could not shake off being stepped on by a drunk friend.
i will definitely be buying another pair of these sunglasses just as soon as my paycheck comes in.

My Mother's a Pirate
Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Optimal clarity, No glare
My girl friend purchased these for me, for my birthday, and it has been the best gift I received this year. These reflect the glare and have a bold and crisp look, that keeps this 48 year old bold and crisp. Considering I have only had them for less than a month, I could not fully support a rating of 5 on the Durability item.
