Review on Oakley OO9406 Sutro Sunglasses: Stylish Eyewear for Men by Tommy Hilmy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bold and functional.

My list of dislikes is short: the handles are a bit long and I wish there were rubber grips on the inside of the arm. Also, sweat still gets on the inside of the lens, but that might just be unavoidable. However, many good things! The style isn't for everyone but I think they look cool, almost too cool for me, my FTP ego may or may not have a little kick. In addition, despite complaints about the long and non-rubberized levers, they do not slip when driving on the road. It's also no problem looking back, checking movements and seeing the wind lift them off their faces. The screen is a sight to behold, even after sweating inside and rubbing with an already sweaty jersey it is very clean and improves visibility on the road. The construction feels solid yet lightweight. I'm looking forward to many kilometers with these shades. I may or may not stick little strips of rubber to the inside of the levers depending on how things go, but so far the lack of grips hasn't resulted in slippage on some intense rides.
