 "And one said mine were fake."
On the box:

Polarized

I thought I lost this one a while back. Only to find it all the way on to my big brother's backpack. And I just got a new pair! Oh well. Also got into a heated argument that mine were fakes. I am not an Oakley buff... but I'd know what's fake and what's real... it's all down to craftsmanship (for me)... "Foakley's" are have coarse finishes and also crappy paintwork. But I did some more research on why my O's didn't have the "Oakley" name on the front. And I did wonder why. ;) Got my pair in Dubai, in an Oakley store.. but still. Mine was different than the other Minute's that I have seen. And on the Oakley site. They only show the one with the Oakley brand on the front.
It is plastic. So it's easily fake-able.
Well, my pair is the Oakley "SI" (Standard Issue or 'Signature') series. But I would think it's "Standard Issue" since this seems to be the 'tactical' or 'Government Issue' models. And from what I notice with SI series models. They don't have the "Oakley" name painted on the front/bridge part of the sunglasses. Probably so that the bad guys won't know they're O's. Hehe...
Too bad they don't make these anymore.
Perfect for those who have slimmer faces (payat) it wraps pretty good on the face... doesn't fall easily when you're reaching down for something. Or suddenly falling off when hitching on a bed of a 4x4 speeding on a bumpy road. Of course, the lens is Polarized. So it really reduces glare and makes you see cool rainbows on windshields and cellphones. The feel of wearing Polarized lenses is also quite addictive. I wouldn't want to go out without mine on. Or I get headaches... or worse... like when vampires go out in the sun... "THE LIGHT!!!! AAAAAH...".
