These glasses were the first expensive pair I have purchased just for cycling. I am very happy with the glasses (dark polarized lenses). The glasses are very comfortable without slipping. I have since ordered a pair for casual wear. Strengths:
Great fit, UV protection, and total comfort. Weaknesses:

purchased the Radar with prescription lenses, progressive and photochromatic, to replace my Bole with prescription insert. Inserts are always a problem in rain and cold weather as well as blackflies getting behing the insert.
Oakley was the only company who was willing to manufacture the lenses for me. All other manufacturers I contacted declined after seeing my prescription requirements. I was told that it took Oakley three attempts to get the lenses right, without distortion.
Highly recommended for prescription users. Strengths:
Superb optics. The lenses produce a panoramic vision. The tinting of the lenses changes very rapidly. Very good for riding in the rain. Weaknesses:
none Similar Products Used:

Summary:
A replacement for my pair of half jackets. I found the half jackets to get in the way especially when in the drops. The larger lens surface of my Radars (Path) is much better in this respect, rests a bit higher with excellent coverage. The rain proofing they put on the lens is phenomenal, water just seems to bounce off like there's a force field on the lens! I custom designed mine and they look awesome with aluminum polished frame, dark lens tint and red icons. I couldn't think of a better set of shades to have. Strengths:
Visual Clarity (no distortion)
Large lens coverage
Comfortable
Hydrophobic
Look Awesome Weaknesses:
You have to try on the various lens to find which one "fits" you best. I thought the largest size would be best but it just wouldn't work, so try before you buy.
A little expensive, put worth every penny Similar Products Used:
