Sunglasses for Men - OO9096 Fuel Cell Rectangular Sunglasses PRIZM Lenses

I’ve owned a lot of Oakleys over the years, including older non-Prizm models, and these Fuel Cells with Prizm Tungsten lenses are easily one of my favorites. I was a little skeptical about Prizm at first, but after using these for a while I get why people like it. The frame color is hard to describe until you see it in person, and honestly the photos don’t do it justice. It’s a matte transparent light curry/tan shade that looks far better in real life than it does online. Depending on the lighting, the frame shifts between sandy beige, olive-tan, and a warm golden honey tone in sunlight. The semi-translucent matte finish gives it depth and character that normal solid-color frames just don’t have. Unique without looking loud or too trendy. Prizm Tungsten lenses have a warm bronze tint that works incredibly well in bright daylight without being overly dark. Contrast and clarity are excellent, especially for driving and everyday wear. Another place these lenses shine is in mixed and evening light. They work well when moving between sun and shade, and unlike many darker sunglasses, still work very well later in the day without making everything feel too dim. Great for driving near sunset or during overcast conditions where some lenses become unusable. If you have ever worn the classic Ray-Ban B-15 crystal lenses, these Oakley Prizm Tungsten lenses have a similar warm, relaxing view with excellent color balance, but the Prizm tech gives noticeably sharper contrast and performs better in changing light conditions. The optics are really impressive. I also personally prefer non-polarized lenses for everyday use. Polarized lenses are great on the water, but for daily wear I find non-polarized optics more natural and easier on the eyes over long periods. They avoid the weird rainbow glare and screen distortion you sometimes get with polarized lenses, especially with car displays, phones, and tinted windows. Another nice touch is the mirror finish — it’s subtle. In most lighting it doesn’t scream “mirror lens” or look overly flashy, but it’s definitely there outdoors in brighter sun and gives the glasses a premium look without being over the top. The 60mm size fits my face slightly better than the older 61mm version. The 61mm fits well, but the slightly more compact fit of the 60mm blocks light better on the sides while still feeling comfortable for long wear. Lightweight but solid, exactly what you expect from Oakley. Also impressed with the overall finish and quality control. The frames feel sturdy, lenses are crystal clear, and everything arrived authentic and well packaged. These are a quick go-to choice for travel, driving, and daily use. If you’re considering Fuel Cells and want something a little different from standard black frames, this combo is a winner.

1st off let me start by stating , i'm no fan boy of Oakley's , i either love them or hate them ... I bought these glasses at a fair price S&H included here on Amazon . I was in the market for a black pair to replace an older and somewhat worn pair of black Oakley's i already owned for sometime . I saw these in a few local shops but was not happy with the pricing and customer service , so , off to the WWW i went . I knew they would fit my rather larger than average head and provide the eye coverage i expected . I also knew they were available with polarized lenses which i'm a nut for . Granted most local shops could probably have ordered them custom for me but why do that and pay more when i could handle it all right here and get exactly what i wanted , cheaper and faster ? SO i did ... The invoice stated it would be between 12 and 17 days for delivery and man was i anxious . Surprisingly though they arrived early :) After only 9 days from the date of order i had my new Fuel Cells in matte black with black chrome logo's , grey tinted polarized lenses ( they matched the black chrome logo's ) and brand spanking new right out the package . EXCELLENT ! Right off the bat though i did notice 1 small issue , granted it's completely harmless and seriously not a big deal but when i ordered them it gave me an option to select what style lil' sock i wanted which was not what was included in my shipment . Instead i received the standard plain jane rootbeer colored baggy / O sock as they call it . But i'm not one to fuss over spilled milk or trivial things . These glasses are very very similar to the Gascan's if your familiar with those frames . The only differences are the arms have a seperate lil' groove in them and are just a lil' bit thicker . Also on this frame the lenses are a tiny bit larger than on my Gascan's and sit a lil' higher on the bridge of your nose . But aside from those minor details they look nearly identical . I mentioned above i owned a pair of Gascan's , the frames by which all others are now judged when it comes to fit finish performance and everything else in my book . I truly love those glasses ! These are 99% as good as those are . My only real complaint about these glass's or specifically the frames is that with them sitting slightly higher on the bridge of my nose and having these slightly larger lenses they tend to bump my brow and sit so close to my eyes that occasionally i can feel my lashes hit the lenses . I've discussed this with a couple friends and other owners and they seem to have similar comments / thoughts / issues / whatever you wanna lable it as . However , not 1 of those people that i've spoke with , including myself would give them up , send em' back or trade out of them . So this testifies , atleast in my case as to how otherwise perfect , comfortable and satisfying they truly are . If your shopping O's then take a good hard serious look at these , they're exceptional shades an available here at Amazon for pretty good deals too ;)

Fantastic sunglasses. I have had these now for over 2 years, and I can't suggest these glasses enough. I've had various sunglasses over the course of 5 - 6 years, and I can say with a good degree of certainty that these glasses are the best investment I ever made. They fit very well, and even cover the sides of my eye so that there is no sunlight directly hitting my eye in any way. I have worn these for 8 - 12 hours without taking them off, and they do a great job with protecting my eyes. After some elongated use I did notice that the piece that sits on the ear does start to apply pressure to where it's sitting on the ear (after about an hour or so), and it can be slightly painful, but a quick adjustment of the glasses alleviates this. I wish there was some sort of padding or something that would help reduce this, but overall it's a minor issue. Through the years the lenses have gotten mildly scratched up, because of my own usage and storage ineptitude (I had no idea you shouldn't put them in your pocket), but had I purchased a hard case for them, they probably would still look brand new. Although I try extremely hard to care for these glasses, and generally take great care of them, these have been dropped a couple of times. However, there is absolutely no evidence of their collision with the ground. These glasses are durable and absolutely worth the money and will last a very long time. Note - I purchased the polarized version of these glasses, as I wanted the glare protection and UV protection associated with the lenses. I have not worn the non-polarized versions, except in the store, but I would highly suggest to get polarized. It's worth the upgrade in money, and you'll notice a huge difference.

I bought this to replace a pair of Oakley fuel cell that I have had for about 10years that finally broke. Putting the new pair next to my old ones, there are some differences Oakley has made some changes over the years, but I am fairly certain these are authentic. I even popped my prescription lends out of my old ones and they went right into the new ones. A couple notes. The flat grey pair that I got gets finger prints and oil like crazy compared to normal "shiny" sunglass material. It kind of solved itself by having enough "oil" on the frame over time to where it all looks effectively one color again. I like the look and would choose it again over shiny black, but just be aware. My pair came in an unlabeled white box with an SI sunglass bag. This is not how my original Fuel Cells came (white Oakley labeled bag and a semi-hard Oakley case), but this could just be how Oakleys are sold these days. I still think they are authetic (checking the seems, serial, etc) My pair came with a 2cm long scratch on the frame arm. Doesn't bother me at all and I bet the vendor would exchange if I cared to, but I never tried. With how easily finger prints show up on the frame, I doubt these were used and returned and just an unlucky scratch in handling somewhere along the line. Overall if I disaster struck and I were to need a new pair tomorrow, I would buy them again and I would buy them again from this seller.

Nice pair of Oakleys! Definitely light weight, and I feel that they were priced appropriately. My biggest gripe would be the comfort factor. While I like the way that they fit on my face, they can start to hurt my ears after wearing them for 2 plus hours. I've worn them for 8 hours straight, and a slight adjustment every now and then (lifting them slightly off my ears) seems to make it bearable. The other complaint would be when it's hot outside (or very humid), I occasionally start to fog up the lenses. I live in NC for reference. I own two pairs of Oakley Valves that are more comfortable around the ears, but these Fuel Cells are the only pair that I own with Prizm lenses. I really like the way that the colors contrast when viewed through these Prizm lenses. If I feel like my grass needs to look greener, I simply put on my Fuel Cells and instantly feel better!!

Excelente producto.

A year later and I still have them ❤️

Excelentes gafas a un excelente precio, entrega super rápida.

Sehr coole Sonnenbrille

Produto excelente, entrega extremamente rápida.

Très bonne lunettes mais les polarisé sont encore mieux.

You would have thought spending over £100 on a pair of sunglasses that you would get a case to protect them .
