Oakley Asian fit sunglasses
Anyone have experience with these. My girlfriend recently broke her old sunglasses and is having a terrible time trying to find sunglasses to replace them. I know that Oakley makes Asian fit sunglasses, but we can't seem to find them in the Hartford, CT area. Anyone have any experience with these either the goggles or the sunglasses?

No personal experience, but I believe you can order them (asian fit glasses/goggles) right from oakley.com. If they don't fit or she doesn't like them, just return. Plus, this way you can choose your own frame and lens combo, instead of the 3 or so options the retailers offer.

Probably, however they have different geometry and sit higher on the nose.

I figure the arm set-up would be the same...so maybe try it?
If you want oakley for the girl, check sierratradingpost.com
They have a few choices for women on sale, and there's lots of e-coupons that float around, and free shipping riddles. A-1 on returns.
I saw these locally at S-hut, and my girl (ex!) liked them a lot.

FWIW, Evo carries Smith's Asian fit.

Oakley Racist Fit goggles fit my face very well. They are just the normal goggles with extra padding on the nose part. Normal lenses fit them. Get the ones with double layered lenses. They have almost never fogged up.
I bought mine on backcountry.com

Here's the deal with Oakley Asian Fit.
They take sunglasses with the least amount of base curve and extend the length of the nose pads or the bridge depending on the frame material.
For goggles they use thicker pieces of triple layer face foam in the nose area to fill any gaps that many people of the asian persuasion suffer from with american fit goggles..
My suggestion would be to go to oakley.com, and look at the website from japan, pic some styles that you like and see if they are available in the US. If they are order away.
Ear stems do not change for asian fit stuff, just the base curve and the nose area.

I am looking for Native American Sunblock. Anyone?
Do you by chance happen to own a large, yellowish, very flat cat?
