With his brother Jesse acting as his creative director, snowboarding superstar Shaun White worked closely with Oakley during the creation of the Holbrook polarized sunglasses. Together they went back to vintage styles like the original Oakley Frogskins then set out to distill their own vision of American cool. Holbrook is a timeless classic that echoes the screen heroes from the 1940s, 50s and 60s, the icons who inspired youth with their own brand of defiance.

Extra Info
Pro Tip - Are polarized sunglasses better? Are they worth the price?
In many cases, yes. All sunglasses reduce brightness and block some amount of harmful UV rays. However, only polarized sunglasses are scientifically constructed to eliminate glare. Not just reduce it, but eliminate it. Fully polarized sunglasses reduce eye strain and help you see better around water, snow, sand or any other reflective surroundings.
My Story: I wasnt fond of expensive glasses anymore as i break or lose them to much. So I got knockoffs (Blenders) at first. They were cool until I was in Utah on a Sunny Snowfilled day and i was literally squinting through my glasses. My bro in law in back had the Holbrook wood grain daily polarized and i put them on and felt instant relief. I did not squint anymore. It was at that moment i decided to make the switch. I can not be happier...My eyes especially!

Oakley Holbrook Polarized Sunglasses
I ordered these for my son the 23rd late, so basically on Christmas Eve the 24th, he knew and I knew they would probably arrive with the free shipping somewhere around the 2nd week of January...NOPE! Tactics sent 2nd day!! They arrived on December 26th in the morning!!! Basically on Christmas Day!
HE LOVES THEM!! They are not cheaply made at all, super study, and the lenses are polar. He is a taller kid, and so longer, face, but they fit nice and snug, he said that they really block out the side light suprisingly! It is very expensive, I know, but...he was skating all day in the parking lot, with snow reflecting the sun...he said the reflection was not an issue, so I feel safe for vision and UV rays. Also, they are TOUGH built, so, even with falls, like protection for eyes in my opinion. I think for safety...these are important. It is a birthday and Christmas gift combined, and he sort of convinced me to buy them...if you can for your kid, they are recommended, also, his girlfriend liked wearing them, so that is good too! not the 1980s style Frogskins at all, which seem 1980s, these are very modern!
Nice glasses, amazing lenses, look great on a male and a female!

Tactics is Great!

Oakley Holbrook Polarized Sunglasses
Covert Matte Prizm Daily Holbrook: First, Tactics has great service and lowest prices. I could not find these shades at any lower price other than ebay. The shades are completely matte with matte rubberish icons (rubber/poly mesh). Second, as for these lenses, the Prizm daily lenses are 14% transparent in comparison to the ird. polarized (10%). I found the information from Oakley to be true. The color has a light grey effect but in dark conditions may seem slight purple or brown and your eyes can be slightly seen 3 ft from a perspective (at a distance it is blacked out). Didn't like the Dark gold-ish icons and mirror effect on the iridium polarized combo and am very pleased with the Prizm dailys in direct sunlight. I would have rated 4-4.5 stars for not having a darker lens tone, but its the best option in quality for the Holbrooks.
