I'm pretty sure Sierra charges the actual cost while the other places mark it up a bit. They can make some money...same goes for say, WhiskeyMilitia where its $7.50 to ship a shirt USPS to my house when two pairs of googles are 4.50.

All Dragon glasses are 100% UV Protective and only some are Polarized for some extra coin.

Dragon is fine. I just picked up a pair a few weeks ago. Frankly I like Smith, Dragon, Native, and just about anything over Oakley. Oakley has very nice lenses, but their frame construction has always left a little to be desired imo. After getting burned a few times, I am done with them.

i agree Killz. i dont buy oakley anymore. i think they are too expensive for what you get. you are paying for the name. I've got a few pairs of arnettes and i love them. i am prolly an arnette wearer for life.
