 Love the look, hate the fitJun 29, 2011
By T. Jackson
I love the way these glasses look on me but everytime I walked, they would bounce up and down on my face. I took them to Sunglass Hut to get them adjusted and all they could do was bend the handle as I had done plenty of times. I wound up selling them.

 Sleek design, lots of lens choices vs. M Frame 2.0Jan 22, 2011
By Charlie
Oakley M Frames
According to some sites, Oakley had release three different types of M Frame glasses over the years. The originals debuted in the early 1990s, then were revised around 2000, and the latest came out in 2006 (M Frame 2.0). The M Frames I used were purchased from Oakley's Standard Issue program, the same place where I get M Frame 2.0's. The M Frames use the same lenses as the M Frame 2.0, except the 2.0 requires a drill out in the center of the lens for the special clip. The M Frame itself has a tighter fit around the temples, and arcs out a lot more at the corners, which can create interference issues with helmets and straps. The M Frame 2.0 is a flatter and larger/looser fit.
The M Frame 2.0 have very limited lens choices: clear, VR28, and gray. These M Frame "1.0" have a wider variety of lenses with different tints: Strike, Hybrid, Hybrid Small, Heater, and Sweeper. I purchased the Hybrid Small with a Black Iridium lens coating to reduce glare. The VR28 on my M Frame 2.0 was great in any condition other than heavy sunlight and sunlight reflecting off water or wet pavement.
The M Frames I test fitted at a mall were extremely tight, so I suspect the M Frames I bought from the Oakley SI program are slightly newer.
If you don't mind limited lens choices, the M Frame 2.0 is more rugged due to the center clip. That said, the M Frame 1.0 is well regarded by cyclists and Soldiers for eye protection. The M Frame 1.0 has a lot more options for lenses, although you could just remove the clip from the 2.0 and use the same lenses.
Overall: 4/5 stars
