Product Description
Since the Oakley Oil Rig Sunglasses are designed for man-sized skulls, you don't have to worry if you get big-headed when you masterfully pilot your spaceship out of orbit. A lightweight O-Matter frame is matched in durability only by your cloaking device, and Polaric Ellipsoid lens geometry means the Oil Rigs follow the contour of your face for optimal coverage when you hang a right at the sun. Thanks to a Plutonite lens, no UV rays make it to your peepers during interplanetary travel.

Amazon.com Product Description
The latest edition of the Oil Rig comes with redesigned stem architecture that puts the icon of innovation in the crosshairs of dimensional grooves. Art meets attitude in a style that carries a single continuous lens across contours of lightweight O Matter frame material. Oakley uniquely curves the frame so even medium-size faces get a precise fit that doesn’t stick out at the sides. The sculpturally integrated hinges are engineered with dual cam action, and the linear ear stems provide a comfortably secure grip. High Definition Optics (HDO®) takes advantage of Polaric Ellipsoid lens geometry to maintain clarity while curving the lenses for optimal side protection and extended peripheral view. The Plutonite lens material filters out every ray of UV, and both impact protection and optical precision meet ANSI Z87.1 standards.

Lost My Oil Rig, Buying another
I just lost my favorite pair of sunglasses. The Oakley Oil Rig! I wear them every day and can't live without them so here I am at 2am on a Friday night ordering another pair. They're that good. Comfort level is very high and the field of view is amazing. You don't see the frame at all when looking through them. They look bold and bad ass and are worth every penny. I only wish they came with a cable that would permanently attach them to my face.
Great Glasses
I bought a pair of these about a year ago and sadly...I left them on the airplane a few days ago. I am ordering another pair for a multitude of reasons. 1. The clarity through them is great. 2. I have a big head....lets be honest, its hard to find glasses for a big head and these fit great. Cant wait for the new pair to get here!
Exceptional product
I have owned these for a couple years now and I am still very happy with them. I have dropped them tons of times...no dents, dings or scratches. One time I slammed my head into a door frame with my Oil Rig's being the only buffer to my skull. My eyes were watering from the pain but my Oakley's...perfectly fine.
I have a medium-wide face and they fit perfectly. On a boat or in a convertible the wind never once bothers my eyes. The only thing is I wish I had coughed up the extra $70 for the polarized. I live in Florida and spend a decent amount of time at the beach or on lakes and the polarized would be nice for contrast on the water (you never know about sharks or gators).
