Excluding the M-frame and visor/blade variants, which is the best full sport frame Oakley made with the least light leakage/best coverage? Classic or new.
I haven’t been able try on most of them, but in my mind pairs styled and fit like the racing jacket look the most appropriate in theory. As opposed to pairs like the gascan, crankshaft which may block out side glare but don’t fit as well.
I’ve come up with a list from more sporty to less sporty. Can any members confirm which fit well for sports and let in minimal light?
Also, are any key pairs missing?
Racing jacket / Jawbone
Split Jacket / Wind Jacket
Shocktube (larger lenses than RJ/JB/SJ? - do they fit well?)
Less sporty but looks like a potential:
Ten X (fits well, will it hold up?)
Twenty XX
Switch
Monster dog
Masseter? (doesn’t look as snug as older pairs?)
Excluded
Straightlink (flimsy build quality)
Valve (leakage at temple/cheeks)
Plazma (not a big fan)
Crankshaft (less sporty/doesn’t fit)
Gascan (less sporty)
Flak etc (not full frame)
M frame etc (visor - not full frame)
Thanks in advance for your feedback!
