Professional Fisherman Kevin VanDam Gets Help From Polarized Lenses
Pro athletes around the world understand the value of selecting the right polarized sunglasses and bass fisherman Kevin VanDam has noted just how important his relationship with his Oakley sunglasses has been to his success. Great tools translate into the opportunity for great performances. This is exactly why bass fishing legend VanDam has chosen to wear polarized sunglass lenses.
Thanks to this greater clarity of vision and a reduction in glare from Polarized Lenses the reaction times are improved and more information can be gathered. Both of these factors are essential for great athletic performances and have helped VanDam become a legend. Polarized lenses not only afford VanDam exceptional protection for the sun’s rays and the water’s glare, but also allow him to see the fish more enhanced clarity.
The right tools are an investment. So when you damage or scratch your sunglass lenses, don’t throw them away. Instead of throwing away your sunglasses, you should instead turn to us. We can replace damaged sunglass lenses for a tiny fraction of the cost of replacing an entire pair. We can send your replacement lenses anywhere in the world at no extra cost, so you can get back out there on the water and make a record catch!
Shaun White Signature Series Holbrook Sunglasses
Shaun White just won the Winter X Games once again, what a legend he is turning out to be, while wearing Oakley Holbrook sunglasses.
This model comes in three colors and each are distinctive looking and are best worn with polarized lenses. You may already own a pair of Oakley's or Arnette's, but we would really recommend these well made, reliable and versatile sunglasses. What we love the most about them is that they work great on the slopes, but you can also wear them anywhere else of course like the beaches of LA or Florida.
These polarized lenses let you see all the action with perfect clarity which, of course, means they are great for everything from driving to golfing to simply strolling down the street. Remember The Sunglass Fix is here to replace your lenses if they ever become damaged, and we can ship your new polarized lenses to wherever you may be in the world for free.

Superbowl XLVII Brothers Showdown
Every single Super Bowl is intense, but this one definitely has the makings of being more intense than normal. Why will this Super Bowl be so intense? The two head coaches, Jim and John, also share the same last name, in the form of Harbaugh. That’s right they are brothers. As you can imagine, no matter how this game turns out, family gatherings will never the same again, period!
Everybody will want to have the best view of the action possible for this game. You will need the best quality sunglass lenses that money can buy for this game. After all, you never want to miss this kind of action! Whether players and attendees opt for Arnette, Oakley, Ray-Ban or another brand, you can be sure that they will be wearing the best sunglasses lenses out there.
What I find most fascinating about this game is that you know these two coaches are going to give it everything that they have. It is one thing, after all, to lose the Super Bowl. It's quite another to lose it to your brother. While most of us wish we could have the opportunity to coach a team in the Super Bowl, for the loser this year, things could still be a little rough!
Well, one thing that is not rough is how much money you can save buying new lenses from us. We can send you out new sunglass lenses anywhere in the world and you can repair your sunglasses yourself. You might not make a big save at the Super Bowl, but you can save some big money on sunglass lenses.
Bradley Wiggin Celebrates his Tour de France win Wearing Oakley Holbrook Sunglasses
Each year's Tour de France is an exciting occasion, as this race brings out the best and brightest cyclists from around the world. The 2012 race participants included people from around the world. While Lance Armstrong is no longer racing, there were some very promising riders from the US this year including George Hincapie, Tejay van Garderen, Tom Danielson and Chris Horner. In fact, people are already calling Tom Danielson the "next Lance Armstrong!"
But have you ever wondered why so many of the cyclists wear similar sports sunglasses? (No, they do not all shop at the same sunglasses store!) There is actually a simple reason behind these similarities and that is that the high-end sunglasses manufacturers clamour to sponsor Tour de France cycling teams and champions like Bradley Wiggins. It's a top event in their calendar to get their latest sunglasses out in on show.

Oakley and Rudy Project Polarized Sunglasses
Two companies whose names came up a lot during the Tour de France were Oakley and Rudy Project. Unless you have been hiding in a cave, you all know and some of you already love Oakley. Oakley spends countless dollars to stay on the cutting-edge of sunglasses technology.
Rudy Project specializes in sports sunglasses and markets itself to cyclists as well as fishermen, golfers, and those involved in motorsports. Rudy works to offer special features that benefit cyclists like an ergonomic design and optimal ventilation.
Making Your Sports Sunglasses Last
When you invest in a pair of high-end polarized sunglasses for cycling or for any other reason, you want to ensure that you have made a long-term investment. While Oakley and Rudy Project sunglasses are quite durable, you never know when you might scratch a lens, and we get plenty of customers who are upset that they damaged their lenses but really happy to find high-end aftermarket replacement lenses that don't cost a bomb.
Here's what a customer from Germany had to say:
"These lenses are way better than my original ones.. Thanks for your perfect and kind service and the superb quality.. My next order ( have another oakley ;-) ) will arrive soon. best regards from cloudy germany...Michael Karlsruhe" GERMANY 15th May, 2012

Can Cadel Evans win another Tour de France? Oakley Sunglasses would hope so!
So it's only a month before the biggest cycling race in the world takes place. Cadel Evans is now taking part in the major race leading up to the big ride, The Dauphine Libere, that gives some clues on who are most likely to take the yellow jersey into Paris at the end of July for the Tour de France.
He came second last year at the Dauphine last before the big race that put the Aussie on the map; winning the biggest cycling prize in history for an Australian.
Cadel told The Australian Online; “I'll come away from the Dauphine and head to the Tour with my own plan, to ride my own race,” said the BMC Racing team leader. Cadel has cited some sinus problems that has slowed his pace in 2012 but is keen to work with is team on the road in the lead up to the Tour de France.
Cadel is sponsored by Oakley as are many of the top cyclists in the world. It's no wonder because Oakley do make some of the best frames and lenses on the market with a great fit and superior comfort for any sport. Cadel is a fan of the Oakley Radar and Oakley Fast Jacket sunglasses.
We have many customers here at the Sunglass Fix who get aftermarket replacement lenses for their Oakleys, one customer said he'd had his for 23 years! Now that's some solidly built frames to last a lifetime.....but if you need new lenses check out our range of Oakley replacement lenses.

Indy 500 Tributes Dan Wheldon with White Sunglasses
What an awesome way to give tribute to the Indy 500 race car champion, Dan Wheldon. The organizers of the 2012 Indianapolis 500 speedway race on Sunday handed out mock ups of Dan's iconic white sunglasses to celebrate his life and passion on the speedway.
Wheldon, the defending race winner and a two-time champ, was killed in the October finale last season, and the entire day was in honor of D-dub, the fallen champ.
Luckily for Dan three of his best friends were nutting it out for the championship and the Scottsman, Dario Franchitti, came out on top taking the title and etching his name next to his buddy Dan's on the trophy.
Just not sure we can replace the sunglass lenses in these tribute shades though!
