The Flak Jacket is what Oakley designers consider a hybrid piece. Meaning, it falls somewhere between sport and lifestyle glasses. And while its slender and svelte looks appeal for walking around town, the Flak Jackets have been a staff favorite from riding due to their lightweight and low profile.

The Flak Jacket are about the size and general frame shape of a standard pair of sunglasses that you would purchase for the beach or driving. But being a pair of Oakley's, sport is woven into their DNA which means you get a lens curvature that wraps your face tighter to provide excellent coverage and protection. The durable O Matter frames are lightweight but also robust for mucho durability. They also feature Oakley's familiar Three Point Fit system, which means just the arms and nose bridge will come into contact with your head. These contact points have Oakley's Unobtanium rubbery material which provides a comfortable non-slip grip. The single pin hinge is solid and offers smooth action when opening and closing the arms.

The Flak Jackets use a familiar lens technology that is tought to beat. HDO (High Definition Optics) for clarity of vision and impact resistance, Plutonite UV protection and Hydrophobic water repellency and smudge protection. Lastly, Iridium treatment provides glare reduction and a tuned light transmission in brighter conditions.

Oakley supplies every pair of Flak Jackets with the classic black Microclear Cleaning/Storage Bag, protective Oakley Soft Vault Case.
