Review Verdict: We're pretty sure the Oakley name—not the feature set or sound quality—is the primary reason for buying these flash-based MP3 player sunglasses.
QuickTake:

So, what exactly was bounty hunter Duane "Dog" Chapman wearing on his head when he appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno? If you guessed "music-playing eyewear," you're right. Wearable MP3 players are nothing new, but this high-end shade maker decide
Review Verdict: For a whopping $495, you should get something a little sturdier and more comfortable. And we thought the Thump would be much louder than it is.

QuickTake:
Pros: Lenses provide excellent UV protection. Easy to use.
Cons: Cheap feeling. Earbuds have rough edges and aren't easy to position for maximum sound. Sound is not loud enough. Way too expensive.

Oakley Thump 2
Comments:
Review Verdict: The Thump 2 is a slight improvement over the original model, but it still has some issues. While the price has dropped, we still think it's a small fortune to pay for such a low storage MP3 player.
