Review on ๐Ÿ•ถ๏ธ Premium Replacement Polarized Lenses Sunglasses - Enhanced Compatibility by Mike West

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great offer! - Accessory

First of all I would like to say that I am not an expert in authenticating Oakley quality standards. What I do know for sure is that I've already spent a lot of money on the Flak 2.0 frames and the original polarized lenses that came with them. After a few years of use, the original lenses were badly tarnished and scratched, resulting in poor vision, and I definitely didn't want the OakleySI.com price (not to mention the $70 MSRP elsewhere) for just that set a waste. Lenses. To be honest, I was skeptical when I came across them. So, straight to the product review: the lenses come with four lens sets as advertised; the standard gray tint (they're advertised as black), plus black, red, and blue mirror lenses. Each kit has the correct lens stamped 'Polarized' exactly the same as my original kit although I'm honest they appear to be polarized although not the same quality/standard as the original (although considering I'm getting four at a discounted rate from one, I'm willing to accept it). Each set is packaged in a plastic case, all four cases are packed in a tightly packed carton, each with its own microfiber cloth. If you're planning on taking them to the shooting range, I'd like to warn you against this because nothing advertised on the product page or in the packaging material (of which there isn't much) says anything about the ballistic rating like the originals that are ANSI certified Z87. That being said, if you just want to replace the lens and buy lenses in a variety of colors to amp up your tough guy effect, then I'm more than happy with this $1 replacement lens deal. Note: If you're like me and I'm wondering if you have a Flak 2.0 or Flak 2.0 XL, after doing some research I found that if you have SKU: OO9188 (the number is on the left temple , as worn, next with a bow), then you have Flac 2.0 material. If you see XL or not XL, that's for lenses only. Hope this clears up any confusion anyone has. I think this is a great deal, I would buy them again and as long as you understand these are really high quality fakes I would definitely recommend them.
