Oakley ENDURING EDGE Women’s Sunglasses: $90
Enduring Edge Sunglasses
Rarely does one find a deal at the Oakley store. In this case, Oakley is offering one of it’s latest women’s designs for half price. Supplies, however, are limited. Oakley originally offered two colors at this price. Now only the Cinder Red is available for $90. Here is their description:
Female athletes demand the best performance eyewear on the planet but they want it without a masculine fit, or a look full of testosterone. That’s why Oakley collaborated with top female athletes to create ENDURING® sunglasses, an entirely new dimension of performance, fit and style made exclusively for women.
An interchangeable lens design lets you adapt and optimize performance in any environment. Our permanentHYDROPHOBIC™ lens coating eliminates water sheens and repels dust, skin oils and lotions, maintaining a smudge-resistant barrier. You also get the unbeatable clarity of HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®), including XYZ OPTICS® to maximize peripheral vision.
The fit is engineered specifically for women, and you can adjust it with two included sizes of nosepiece. UNOBTAINIUM® components keep the lightweight frame comfortably in place by increasing grip with perspiration. UV filtering is an uncompromising 100%, and the lens curvature helps protect the delicate skin around your eyes from the wrinkling rays of ultraviolet light. Impact resistance meets ANSI Industrial Standards, so go play hard.
This frame is matched with our ENDURING EDGE lens shape, a slightly larger size with enough attitude to take on any mountain terrain. For cooling airflow, select the vented lens edition. ENDURING comes with a protective sports-specific Oakley Soft Vault that has space for storing an extra optional lens. If you need prescription correction, this eyewear is available with ophthalmic implants that maximize vision with HDO®.

SweatVac Race Cap/Visor – 25% off!
SweatVac Race Visor
I have been a fan and loyal customer of HeadSweats for years. Recently, having seen my current collection of caps slowly succumb to sweat, heat, and multiple washings, I decided to indulge in some new headwear. I ran across SweatVac products and wrote the company to see if they had any discounts available. Surprisingly, I received a prompt reply with a 25% off coupon code. With such a great discount, I strayed away from my usual brand to give SweatVac a try. I received a cap and a visor last week after impressively quick shipping. Upon first impression, they immediately compare favorably with HeadSweat products. The SweatVac cap and visor felt more sturdy and fit more securely than my HeadSweat cap. The cap material, however, was almost indistinguishable. After the first few runs I am pleased. I will wait to give the cap and visor a wash or two before giving my final verdict.
