Oakley MP3 Sunglasses
Sunglasses are a fashion accessory, so we clearly want them stylish. But since everybody is using MP3 players nowadays, why wouldn't we want them practical, too, and spare us the dangling earphone cables bumping on our chest when we're jogging or working out?
Oakley realized just that and found a solution. The Oakles MP3 sunglasses are trendier than ever with their glossy classic look, sporty because of their smooth lines and best of all - they're MP3 players. What? You may ask. But yes, they are. Let's see what they can do:
Oakley's MP3 sunglasses are first of all sunglasses, so they've got lenses. What lenses? Oakley's High Definition Optics (HDO), Oakley's patented technology which surpasses every standard in prism, refraction and clarity. The lenses are extremely resistant and protect your eyes from everything that could harm them - sand, stones, water, everything. Moreover, the frames are sweat-resistant and actually grip better on your nose once they're wet, so you're ready for every workout!
And now the fun part. The MP3 player. Oakley features an MP3 player of either 1 or 2GB in their sunglasses, with removables earphone so you can take them off if you're sure that you won't need them. The buttons to control the player are located on the right part of the frame where nobody sees them but they're still easily accessible. Just look at the photos here and you'll see that nothing from the outside tells you that it's an electronic jukebox! But the MP3 player in Oakley's sunglasses has also a few major advantages over normal MP3s: It can be synched with iTunes, hold podcasts for you to listen to and it can, with the so-called "overdrive" feature, cue a song for you before you start working out on the next machine! Overall, a very accomplished grab-and-go concept of MP3 sunglasses, and stylish, too!
Now what can that player actually play? As said, podcasts and iTunes songs is an easy task for it, but how about formats? Whether it's MP3, AAC, M4A, WAV or WMA with DRM, everything can be played, so you're sure to never end up without music!
The memory parts are solid state without moving parts so however hard you're throwing them while working out or running, they will never break, and there'll never be a glitch in your audio experience. You get up to 7 hours of battery life with a single charge of about 2 hours (they are changed by using the USB connector) and you can store up to 500 songs on the 2GB version, along with work files, of course, because then you won't be needing an USB stick to take with you anymore, just use your always with you sunglasses!
Oakley MP3 sunglasses are the way to go if you look for something practical and cool to enrich your life with music. Never be at a loss for distraction again, wherever you are. Just plug in your earphones and listen, and be sure that they cannot fall out of your ears - ever.

I love the ones with the headphones, they would be great for running! Oakley is great, they always have great UV protection as well. SimplySunglasses.com is a great resource for sunglasses too.
