I have that exact pair, love them!

I continually find myself ordered items in outlandish colors because they're 30-40% cheaper than black and navy.
So far, I have Prizm Golf and Prizm Road lenses for my Flak 2.0 XL sunglasses (gloss black frames, red ear socks and nose pieces). Love the Golf, the Roads are OK. We mostly play in Sedona and I like lenses that make the green grass and red rocks colors "pop". The Road lenses don't do that, the Golfs do.
With the various Prizm lenses, the light transmission and lens base tint (I like the rose a lot more than grey, haven't tried tungsten) seems to be the most important, the outside lens color less so except for what they look like. Polarization is certainly another variable for golf vs other activities.
I have been planning on trying the Prizm Shallow Water polarized next because of the lens base tint and light transmission (and the green color looks great), but my wife just got some Oakley Siphon glasses with Prizm Ruby Iridium polarized lenses and the color intensity is awesome (OK, I went to college in the 60s...). I think those will probably be next before heading down to Sedona in a week or so.
Of course, I am now also pondering a pair of custom Oakley Holbrook glasses with the tortoise shell frames, Prizm Shallow Water polarized lenses and red Oakley "O" for an accent...

FWIW, I have the baseball outfield Prizm and really like them. The Golf one has too high of light transmission, and the baseball one is much lower and closer to my other sunglasses. As far as colors, I think it's tuned very similarly to the Golf Prizm. I can track the ball really well and green seems to pop well too.
How are the prizm lenses when looking into the sun though? Cause they look like they’d do absolutely nothing to stop a 5:30 glare

On top of it you can see your eyes through the lenses. Not sure if IÂ’m going to keep them or not.

I love the way they make the dry desert blue sky, red rock and green grass colors pop. For me, the 17% light transmission is about right.
I like them better than the golf and road lenses. I need to locate some shallow water and Jade Polarized lenses to try but will probably need to go down to Phoenix (in August!) to try some...
FWIW, while looking at some Holbrooks, I tried on some Oakley Holstons and prefer that size/shape.

It was a bit of a change coming from the sapphire prizm color wise especially when driving but now after wearing them for 2 days and then wearing the sapphire lenses yesterday I kind of missed them.
I’m going to wear them golfing today to see how that works out. At some point I do want to get some actual golf lenses though

Define XL head? I wear I think a fitted M/L hat myself and think they fit great.bajapalm;n8881155 said:Did anyone else have problems with the Flaks being too small for your big head? I want to like them but they don't play well with my XL head
