Sunglass Reading
Do Oakley sunglasses sell under other Sunglasses names?
I read an article saying that sunglass companies sell pretty much the same sunglasses, for less, under other non-major name companies... I am trying to find a style that I like from oakley. but is a decent knock off. I'm not looking to spend (or able to) 200 dollars for a pair of sunglasses...
Any websites that could lead me to it? Or sites that sell them? I am looking for sunglasses that are the same style as Oakley's Dart Polarized sunglasses...
I'm referencing this article that i found online...

Oakley does not sell under other names for less. For example- fox motorcross goggles. Although they have a different logo, the replacement lenses have the same logos AND both the goggles and the replacement lenses cost the same as the identical model Oakleys (albiet with a different name).
As for glasses, you can find glasses that look similar, but they are not Oakley.
Oakley uses patented proprietary materials and leads the market in clarity and strength (durability).
Your article mentions Luxottica. However, they fail to mention that Luxottica purchased Oakley several years ago. Oakley still produces the same quality products that it has always produced since it was founded back in the 70's. Luxottica doesn't "make" them and does not "interchange" (or at least hasn't yet) Oakley materials into other brands.
You can get glasses that are clearer- but they are made of inferior materials that shatter and could damage your eyes.
you can get glasses that may be stronger- but they are far inferior in clarity.
Oakley is the best combination of clarity and stength you can get. there's a reaons why Oakley eyewear is one of the most used eyewear in the MLB, NBA, PGA, law enforcement and one of the few glasses brands allowed and issued by the US military to be worn in uniform.
You don't get there by selling inferior products and jacking up the prices.
Sure, you can get glasses that are cheaper, the may do something SIMILAR, but they will not do the same thing as a pair of Oakleys. The proof is in the videos and the unsolicited testimonials of hundreds of military, police, and private citizens who have had their eyes protected by Oakley glasses.
