No idea what ANSI rating is but after my first pair of glasses got run over I shot the lenses I had left over with a buddies air soft gun and they didn't shatter or splinter or whatever.

If $9.95 sunglasses from the Bay are safe enough to wear, so are china made sunglasses.

But I respect ur point.


You are right tho the frames are just plastic not comparable to genuine at all

Oakleys and other certified manufactures have tested their lenses to be shatter proof to many degrees. Sure the likelihood of your glasses shattering as rocks are pelted at it buy some ricer running Yoko A048 or a large truck are slim, I'd prefer to mitigate those dangers all together. Buying Oakley/certifed lenses give you that protection (but so do some cheaper manufactures).
