Amazon.com Product Description
Wind Jacket™ is a special rendition of Oakley's renowned Split Jacket™. It's engineered with snap-in gaskets for a protective seal and added a removable strap for a secure fit. Originally designed with motorcycle riders in mind, the removable gasket minimizes air flow across your eyes at high speeds. Complete with Switchlock™ Technology for quick and easy lens changing. Choose tinted lenses for maximized vision during the day, and when the sun sinks, install the included clear lenses. All lenses are optimized with Hydrophobic/Oleophobic technology that repels dust and helps maintain a smudge resistant barrier against oils while preventing water from leaving streaks and sheens. You’ll have the comfort of a durable yet lightweight O-Matter® frame with a Three-Point Fit. Attach the eye gaskets when you’re headed out to face the wind, or remove them when you want the look of regular sunglasses.
Product Reviews These are outstanding! A ton of accessories. Easy to interchange the lens on the fly. You do feel some wind blast creeping in around the frames (with helmet off. With helmet on - virtually none.) and the glasses are so light, they do want to make an attempt to escape your face at higher speeds (when not wearing a helmet or the security strap). However, I suspect this is a non issue if you have a larger/wider framed head. If you have a narrow head, this is a notable observation, but not a deal breaker. Overall, it's a great product I would recommend to other motorcycle riders.
