Oakley Mobile Testing Lab for Polarized Fly Fishing Sunglasses - Leland Fly Fishing Outfitters


At the Fly Fishing Retailers Show in Denver, we got a tour of the rolling "O-Lab", a mobile testing lab that Oakley uses to test its eyewear to the highest standards in the industry, in both optical clarity and impact resistance. This video demonstrates what happens to Oakley sunglasses- and your eyes- in both high velocity and high mass impact. Imagine a clouser minnow hitting you in the eye and you can see why these demonstrations are relevant to the fly fisherman! For the Oakley Flak Jacket XLJ sunglasses featured in this video, check out the following link: For the rest of Oakley's fishing eyewear, see the following link:  ht lines!
