Are these the same ones that Lance was using for the Tour de France?

LOL, I was looking a Worth1000 tag on that image.

Is that thing for real?

If I am not mistaken,i think that was the same sunglasses worn by Valentino Rossi during the MotoGP in Malaysia

had not seen that,thanks for the re-direct.

In my opinion as a person that mountain bikes this is actually a nice product.Even when i lash down the player and tuck the cord inside my shirt I still get some of the cord caught on limbs . I have actually destroyed PCDPs on trails , the cans just hit the ground or stay in the tree (

) until i recover them and put them back on

Helmet/Croakies/Oakley Thump looks to be a possible solution.Even if gets ripped off my head somehow at 1.8 oz total weight it will not come to any harm when it hits the ground.

watersports and falling off cliffs are another thing.............

I need an "Oakley Splash" and an "Oakley Tank" in my personal "Outdoor Sports And Horror Show" music kit

 

[warubozu]

Yeah, Oakley gear are definitely built to handle punishment. It'll interesting when I'll be able to see the Thump in my local Oakley retail outlet.

Wondering how do Oakleys fit you all? I'm thinking of getting one of their frames for prescription glasses. How's the ear piece fit?

 

[NeoPoe]

Didn't Lance Armstrong use these?
