Sports Rx Glasses

Anyone on RS own a pair?

I'm just toying with the idea of potential getting one next year when my insurance kicks in again

I've noticed a layer of dust/oil/sweat build-up in my plastic glasses in the middle of the lower rim that I just can't clean out. I'm only going with contact lenses for work/social occasions.

Seems like Oakley's are popular (M-frame, eye jacket, 1/2 jacket etc). I already on a pair of Rudy Project frames for my clinicals at school. Looking for something light with good warranty. Main usage will be for running/gym use, and it must be durable enough to take impact from basketball etc. Any other suggestions?

Can any sport frames be fitted with Rx lenses? The one below seems to be Rx ready, not sure if that means other's arent' compatible.

Oakley M FRAME HYBRID Sunglasses available online at Oakley.ca | Canada

I remember an optician once said Oakley can't customize lenses over -4.00. I'm about -5.00. I want clear lenses but also those that turn shades when it's bright out (are they simply called polarized?)

I'm thinking budget of $300...no more than 4 bills
