Many people are negative about this one, actually I don't know why... The design is pretty cool IMO. Not such a smooth aviatior but a bit more industrial and sturdy looking, as is the feel.
You have to try them on to see if they look good on your face, but if they do a real must have.

They can look somewhat wide on your head, strange as the inmate looks like the bigger one of these. But these look wider because the frame isn't really curved. And if it fits your face the more straight frame will make it just as awesome as they are :)

These are a perfect fit for asians. Wide, Flat and good for small noses. I have already bought 3 of these. Thankfully there was a pair of "regular" oakley's that I didn't need to look for the "asian" fit. Just perfect.

The glasses are great because they can be had so cheaply. When bought for a third up to half of MSRP, they become a staple of the "Worn every day" part of the collection. They are aviator style. With that said, they are Oakley versions of classic aviators. They have both the pros of Oakley and the cons of the particular style. I find that people hate them because they are neither O-Matter or X-Metal, and they don't fit like Juliets or Gascans.

These definitely have their pros and cons. They are built like a rock, but they are probably the heaviest Oakley sunglasses I own. I really like the lens combination in these. The dark grey lens looks really good with the polished gold frames. But as everyone has already stated, they are really wide and flat. I don't understand how they could fit someone all that well unless you have really big cheeks and a really small nose

I love my Matte Black Crosshair S pair because there are certain situations they are perfect for. So, I was very excited to get a pair of Felons in the same colorway. From the product images, I thought they looked like a less rounded Crosshair S. And while the Felons are just that (to a certain extent), once on my face, they look worlds apart.

I often find the hinges of glasses sitting out too far from my face. The Felons are a perfect example of this. They are relatively flat without much wrap in them at all, and the hinges are way too far out there for my liking. On a personal basis, this will not do, and I have to give them two skulls.

Excellent sunglasses! They feel extremely sturdy and while they lack the very light weight that can be found on many Oakleys, you won't notice it once they are on your face. In typical Oakley fashion, have very aggressive styling and are a great aviator styled pair of sunglasses without have excessively large lenses as can be found on many pairs of aviators.

Very nice fit for me and good looking. Somewhat wide so not for smaller heads. Good construction and extremely shiny alloy. Would give higher mark if came with hard case.

They are too wide to fit pretty much any face. And even if they do they are to shallow to look good at all. Also they are too flat to provide any coverage. The Oakley name is too renowned to put out this garbage.

Nice new take one the aviator. Should fit medium small to medium large craniums pretty well. Points were docked because of the lack of hydrophobic coating and hard case. Also, the frame does squeeze a little which can become uncomfortable after a while.

I'm sorry but these are absolute garbage. They are heavy, wide, and the visual coverage is hands down the worst of any Oakley frame I have ever tried on. I think if Oakley would have tried to engineer these in the same way they did the Crosshairs they would sold much better, especially if they could have made the frames out of titanium. Overall,these are horrible.
