Terry,

I agree with you. There is a coolness factor to Oakleys, and they are spendy. My Rx lenses were $200. WileyX makes some good glasses, but I haven't tried them. I've always had good support from Oakley, even if its been my fault that I broke something.

I have another reason for liking the company, and thats what they did for Lance Armstrong when he was diagnosed with cancer. His French team dropped him (and there went his health insurance). Oakley stepped up and mandated to their carrier that they cover him (he is one of their sponsored athletes).
