Thanks for your vid. Strong work. I rocked my first pair of frog skins in 1985. Witsh I still had them. They are more comfortable than the ray bans. I prefer Oakley. I prefer a bat wolf or a fuel cell or frog skins for better coverage.
They both have their pros and cons. Pros for Ray Ban: Classic look, sturdy solid frame, glass lenses. Pros for Oakley: Contemporary look, lightweight frame, plastic hinges better for the pool/water. Cons for Ray Ban: Heavy Frame, metal hinge can rust if around water environment often, glass lenses not good for sport related activities. Cons for Oakley: lightweight can be perceived as feeling "cheap", and plastic lenses can scratch easier. I have both and use each according to the activity I'm doing. Ray-Ban for dressing up and Oakley for active and sport activities. 😎😎
@@jamiemac3246 i actually wear the new wayfarer which does not have the tilt and has a matte finish so they grip very well. Pretty comfortable frame. Give those a try.
Oakley is far more versatile. Try sitting on your ray bans it will break, sit on the Oakley and the arms just pop out which can be put back in place. Plus you can buy extra lenses for frogskin and change them as you wish, I don't think u can do that with ray bans.
I love the frogskins. The Ray Bands in my opinion have to much of a v-shape on the top of you see what I'm saying. the frogskins do too but not as much and the start to go back down towards the edge.
Frogskins look cool but the lenses are super easy to scratch. I actually got a pair after selling my American Optical Aviators which have glass lenses and oh boy was I disappointed with Oakley. I could put my AO's in my pocket without the case and not have to worry about scratches. With the Prizm Oakley Lenses I scratched them the first day I got them. Just by using the microfiber baggie that it came with. Wayfarers are better in every way. Glass lenses might be a bit heavier, but they will NOT scratch easily.
Buy there still different brands intended for different reasons. Oakley is for fishing, and for when you need a pair of sunglasses to buy as a occasional pair, and Ray bans are a major purchase that are for all occasions and will last a lifetime.
I've never been a fan of Ray-Ban or Oakley, they don't look right on my face - or at least in my opinion! It's been years since I've tried a pair on though...I'll go try some again now. Thanks!
Go watch this and then tell me that glass is better. /watch?v=JmULS__CEiE Coating is the only thing you can scratch and glass lenses use coatings as well. What I personally like about oakley is that they at least have technology and smart design for practical use/functionality and the looks. Before both joined to the one family oakley was actually a competitor where ray-ban was mediocre glasses for mediocre price. The only thing that mad them so popular was famous users like actors and presidets. Both are expensive but at least oakley have something more then just brand behind the price tag.
How can you talk about build quality? Did one pair brake on you? Or it's just a feeling that one is better then the other one? It's your opinion and it's fine. Still would watch that video and also check out prizm technology.
Paul Hopkins Good luck replacing a pair of Ray Bans when the metal hinges bend or break off completely, Oakleys snap on and off for that reason. Your eyes are self correcting what you see with the layers of glass and polarized film GLUED together, the glass in your lenses aren't even from the same cut. Oakleys are made of ANZI Z 87.1 Standard Plutonite, your lenses are from the same cut then blasted with Iridium particals. Oh you're wearing RayBans but a projectile hit them and now you have hundreds of glass shards and grain in your eyes? Wow you'll look retro and "cool" at least right? Ray Bans are has been- $25 drugstore shades, (Really, they were.) out dated and aren't up to today's standards ask any athlete, law enforcement or Military personnel.
I enjoy watching your videos it's helping me decide what camera to buy, and then what kind of glasses to purchase next! I've been needing some quality glasses! Thanks for all your videos.

Subscribed and liked in order to enter the amazon giveaway! (if we comment on multiple vids, do we get multiple entries for the giveaway? Or do you want us to just comment on 1 vid?) The Oakley Frogskin frames are definitely much better than the Ray Bans!
Nice comparative review. Leaning toward the Wayfarers. How sturdy are each? I have an amazing knack of destroying sunglasses soon after buying. Thanks.
oakley has a best frame,does not have a screws,you can can easy push it back.Just seat down on my oakley today,fix them back in 15sec...Ray-bans will not survive!!!!
