Oakley FIVES 3.0 Polarized...anyone have these?

Featured Replies

Anyone use these Oakley's...I might get a pair of them. I have a medium sized face so do you think they would fit? I am going to get the Black frame with Grey lenses.

I had a pair and sent them back as soon as I got them in the mail- they were way too light/weight and felt as if they would fly off my face when speeding along in my boat- seriously they were like a feather.  Do what I did save a little extra $ and get polarized half jackets bronze lenses are good for about all conditions.  The arms on the half jackets were much more sturdy and have rubber to keep them on your dome.

There nice.  I would also take a look at the Costa Del Mar brand.  There not as stylish but they are great fishing glasses.  You might also have to save a bit more.  The one thing I like about the Costa's over the Oakleys is the warranty.

I have been wearing Costas for a year now and they are great. Around here, Costas are considered stylish and have become really popular.

I agree!!!! ;D :) 8-)

I have the half jackets  8-)and they are Awesome!!! Love!! the only thing that i dont like is the rubber tends to wear out fast but its only like ten bucks to replace them!!!

I'm thinking about getting some new shades too but i now have some xlj half jackets that i bought off ebay and have been using since the spring. u can change the lenses in them and they are sturdy. i stepped on em once, the lenses fell out but i put em back in and the glasses were fine. they are great but i just don't like the look on me that much :-/

Get the Costas, i have the MP2's with the green mirror glass lenses, and i love them.  I have had Costas, Ray Bans, Oakley's and Maui Jims.  The Costas were by far the best, with Maui Jim coming in a close second.  Costa's are a superior made product, with a very good warranty.  They are very well regarded, and many of their lenses are made specifically for fishing applications.   I have had mine for about 3 years and haven't had any problems with them.  I think they are really stylish, and have noticed a lot more people wearing them since i got them.  

My suggestion would be to go to a sunglass store, try a ton on till you find a pair you like.  I wouldn't base your suggestion on whether or not they would fit on what size face you think you have.  No reason to blow a bunch of cash, on a pair of glasses that may or may not fit your face.  

Get the Costas, i promise you, you wont regret it.  I have never heard anyone saying anything negative about them.   Oakley's aren't very good glasses, ask anyone at a sunglass store, they will tell you there are much better brands out there.

I have 2 pairs of the Fives, love them.  This model was specifically designed for "narrow framed" faces.

I like my Costa Del Mars for their better lenses than Oakley or Ray Ban. But as stated they are not as stylish. So I went ahead and put some glasses keepers on them so they are even less stylish and I can't loose them. 580 Polarized is the best lenses I have ever put on.

If you ever see somone with costa del mars on its a safe bet they are a fisherman.
