The all black glass is actually the darkest out of the three. They’re almost the same all of them, but the black lenses is the darkest. The “red” glass is the standard/classic prizm road
Got my Sutro S today. Had a normal sutro before, which was just too big for my face. The video helped me a lot in my decision, also in terms of the right color for the lenses. Thanks. Greetings from Switzerland .
This video is literally perfect for me. Had a few pairs of S2's, been loving em. But I'm concerned the Sutros will scratch too easy, as my pair of Holbrooks scratch very easy. Guess we'll see! The S2's don't scratch very easily at all
The red ones looked very good on you. I'm going to try these for running. Maybe I should review them on how they perform for running it's impossible to find decent reviews like these . Very good video
Best review of these glasses. I have a small head so I definitely will getting the S. These look small on you, I think he regular sutro might fit you better actually.
Great review - perfect for cycling and driving they also look cool off the bike just walking around outside. I’m sold on the half frame version just need to decide on the lens as I’m in cloudy U.K.
@@benphilippi2288 Road Prizm are intended for Road cycling, they also do a Trail Prizm for MTB, Prizm Black are more of an all rounder that’s a bit darker
I also consider Julbo Rush, as they cheaper and seems to have more adjustment options. But from my research it seems, that Oakley have superior lens technology ?
Great video bro!!!!! I definitely want a pair especially right now going into mid april.April.... im going with all black pair first then I'm thinking the red one/ orange look for when im on beach ⛱️
Do you have Prizm Jade lense or the Road Jade version ? I’m thinking about buying them, but I don’t know which version I should pick. They say green (prizm jade) is more for a every day use, and the pink (road) are specifically for road biking. Can’t find prizm road Jade (green, but in road version) in my country which I’m digging the most, so I’m a bit confused :( thanks for the video, great work !
Thanks for the review. I'd add maybe two things in future reviews. Some closeups of frames would be cool. It would be nice to see that nosepiece a bit more closely. I'm also curious about the hinge, whether plastic or metal. A quick glance of outside through the glasses would be good too, e.g. this is without and this is with .... I like Oakley. But getting good pics or vids of what the outside looks like through a lense seems to not be a popular thing to capture. In particular, I'm curious what the Jade one looks like.
Would it be possible to get the exact model/sku number for those glasses? On the website they can a different discretion, I am really liking that green tint. Thank YOU!
Do these sutros come with a clear lens, along with the tinted ones? The 100% come with two lenses from what I've heard but wasn't sure if oakley did this as well.
No they do not come with clear. Not even sure if they offer that. Yes, 100% come with clear lenses. I never used mine. You can buy extra or replacement lenses for the Sutros.
hey, just thinking of buying the Sutro S but I'm not sure if it will stay on during downhill mtb sessions or it can fall off easily. It doesn't have the Unobtanium on the temples like the Radar EV does. Anybody and suggestion? thank you :)
Hey, when you ordered from Oakley did you have to pay customs/ duties? I just ordered 3 pairs from Oakley Canada (I'm in Canada) and I see they shipped from the US. That could mean they charge me $150 or so in taxes when I get them from the courier. thanks
@@benphilippi2288 i bought sutro S with prizm road lenses and they fit perfectly. I have small face and normal sutro are oversize for me. Also sutro s are larger and fit less tight than my Radar (sorry for my english I am italian)
I'm thinking about buying Sutro S.. But having hard time to choose lens color. Can you please advice - witch lens color will be best for me? I want lens, that shows more natural colours and let in as much light as possible. (But no clear lens).
You live in Canada and don't ride in the woods? My guy, I would put a glass of dirt from bc in my bed to get better sleep... You live in nirvana for Mountainbikers and don't use it ☹️
the one he chose is the most versatile because it sits in the middle of the 3. He chose the Prizm Road, Road Jade, and Road Black. The road lets in 20% light, the jade lets in 15%, the black lets in 11%. They are all Prizm Road lenses w/ a 'rose' base for contrast. He chose Prizm Road Jade.
Totally overrated glasses. I'm glad I tried these on before ordering to see how much light gets through from under the bottom of the lens. I do have a slim face. Thankfully, Oakley has released Kato and Encoder, both of which suit best. Encoder is definitely worth every buck spent on it.
Sutro is a more casual frame. Kato is their latest cycling performance pair. Also, I don't really think light getting in from the bottom should be an issue, considering not much light comes from directly below you to cause interference
Great job with adding the pictures as well, to see an accurate representasion of the colors
Thank you.

The pair you chose suit you the best! They look great
Thank you for a great review! I ordered Oakley Sutro Matte Carbon glasses with Clear to Black Photochromic lens, looking forward to use them :)
Exactly what I was looking for. Wasn’t sure on what lenses to go for. Nice one 👍🏻👍🏻
Glad you liked it and hopefully it was helpful Ray.
You nailed it with this review! thank you for putting all the work into this video for us.
Super helpful in trying to pick between the three road lenses. Thanks!
Quiet impressed and happy with my Sutro Troy Lee design...was’nt even sure if they were my exact size when I ordered!
The black is the darkest at 11%. Jade is 15%, Road 20%

Been looking at these and was leaning towards the ones you chose. Thanks for sharing 👍
Glad I found your review! I need this for my hiking trip
Glad you enjoyed it.
Check out the Sutro Eyeshade which are the retro versions that's selling like hot 🔥 cakes and gives off that 70's vibe like Fez 😍
The red ones looked very good on you. I'm going to try these for running. Maybe I should review them on how they perform for running it's impossible to find decent reviews like these . Very good video
Best review of these glasses. I have a small head so I definitely will getting the S. These look small on you, I think he regular sutro might fit you better actually.
Nonsense! These look bang on on him. The larger ones look horrendous, have you seen Egan Benal wearing his? 😂
Great review - perfect for cycling and driving they also look cool off the bike just walking around outside. I’m sold on the half frame version just need to decide on the lens as I’m in cloudy U.K.
They fit ur face shape very well
With red, full black and turquoise you probably mean Prizm Road, Prizm Road Black and Prizm Jade. Cheers
Yeah. I found the names confusing, so I just went by colors. What color is Prizm Road?? Anyhow, thanks for clarifying.
@@benphilippi2288 the pinkish ones :)
Sold... got the prism jade...same as yours

Very helpful video. I wanted the red ones. You changed my decision. Liked.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for this review. I’ll be buying the same pair you bought!
I chose PRIZM Road Jade because of you.Thanks
Glad to help. Enjoy.
Wonderful detail in this review, thank you!!!
You're welcome Ryan. Glad it was helpful.
Oakley vs 100%
For me, it’s gotta be the Oakley too
I like 100% but I can't stand that removable rubber nose piece.
Have you actually owned or used the 100% S2’s? I own both and prefer my 100% sunglasses over my Sutros
@@OLICIT no S2. Just Glendale and Speed Trap. Didn’t like both.
Thank you for the review. It helped a lot!
The nosepiece can get sticky like glue when sweat get on it unlike the ones you keep losing 😂
he looks like the magician from the original frosty the snowman movie
Love your explanation.
Great idea to make up your own names for the lenses…
I also consider Julbo Rush, as they cheaper and seems to have more adjustment options. But from my research it seems, that Oakley have superior lens technology ?
Julbos are nice and cheaper. I'm pretty happy with my Sutros
Awesome review man!! Very helpful
Glad it was helpful.
Green prizm lenses are the best for 🚵♂️ or 🚘
there are different Prizm Jades. Prizm Jade, and Prizm Road Jade. Jade has a grey base, Road Jade has a rose base.
I went with the gold lenses! Love them
Yeah, the gold lense ones have a carbon frame which sold me bc i think they will be the strongest
Nice review, thanks for that.
Have you tried or considered the Sutro Lite? I’m hesitant between the normal Sutros and the Lite.
Cheers,
René
No. I have the Sutro S glasses. I'll wear them until they break or I lose them.
Great review
Great video bro!!!!! I definitely want a pair especially right now going into mid april.April.... im going with all black pair first then I'm thinking the red one/ orange look for when im on beach ⛱️
They are the ‘S’ (small) version yeah?. Considering those myself - the normal size too big for me.
Yes, Sutro S. Never knew what the S stood for until now. 😅 Thanks
Wow I love those 100%, where can I by one one of those black and brown??
Thanks for the video! Have you by chance also tested the 24K glasses?
Got em and love em thanks
Is road biking not more dangerous than mountain biking? ie cars

Its Sutro S, not Sutro.
I ordered the black sutro but i am confused now between sutro and sutro s in regard to its fit on my face as i have a medium sized face.
Yeah, I'm not sure what the difference is. The Sutros in this video are S models. They fit my face fine.
@@benphilippi2288 ya that's why it's fitted so well on you. 👍
the regulars are hilariously big, unless you have a really big face I recommend getting the S.
@@weeloghamra1303 thank you for the the suggestion the store had taken order for sutro i will try if they replace the order with S
What was the lense of ur S2 that ur saying that they were dark for the woods ?
Have you considered pit vipers
Would it be possible to get the exact model/sku number for those glasses? On the website they can a different discretion, I am really liking that green tint.
Thank YOU!
Its just the jade prism color
Thank you for review, I still cant decide betwen regular and S version, what is the size of your head for helmet ? thanks
I have a pretty big head and I am happy with the Sutro S.

@@benphilippi2288 Not for "S" ... yet.
The lenses on Sutros aren’t designed to be replaceable
Thanks for the review. I'm ordering one red to my all mountain bike rides. Do you think it's the right choice?
Red is better in the shade of trees because it's more translucent.
Prism Trail Torch, for MTB.
hey, just thinking of buying the Sutro S but I'm not sure if it will stay on during downhill mtb sessions or it can fall off easily. It doesn't have the Unobtanium on the temples like the Radar EV does. Anybody and suggestion? thank you :)
They stay on my face. They are grippy. No issues.
These are the original Sutros?

I didn't get charged customs. But I guess it's possible. I think it's ridiculous that Canada does that. Try to buy them through Oakley Canada.
What color of prism is this?
Are they polarized
Which lens would you recommend for a paved bike path with lots of shade? with the current situation, its hard to try glasses in store
I would recommend the red lenses. They are brighter than the other two.
you have prism trail lens for that
Hi Ben! what size are those? I'm wondering if what size I'm going to buy... thank you.
Not sure exactly. They are Sutro S. I believe they are slightly smaller than Sutros. I have a fairly big head the Sutro S fit me nicely.
@@benphilippi2288 thanks Ben for your time. Have a great weekend!
Thanks.
Black lenses are darker than pink lenses?
yes
@@benphilippi2288 i bought sutro S with prizm road lenses and they fit perfectly. I have small face and normal sutro are oversize for me. Also sutro s are larger and fit less tight than my Radar (sorry for my english I am italian)
Why didn’t you just get one pair and buy a couple other lenses
I will replace lenses as I need them.

Sutro S?
Yes.

Are those the Prizm Road Jade or Prizm Jade?
For Sutro, it's the Road Jade
what lense do you think is most versatile

Why should we care what glasses you chose?
what is the model of the glasses?
Sutro S
Is this S, or REGULAR?
S.

Is that lense the saphire or the jade ?
Jade.
Road Jade (rose base) There's a Prizm Jade also that's grey based
Are those lenses polarized?
I believe so.
Sutro don’t come in polarized, part of the reason why I went with the portal x instead.
@@benphilippi2288 No. Prizm Road lenses (all 3 of them) are NOT polarzied.
are they "S" or "normal" ?
S
I got a pair damn they are huge lol I guess my face is small
Sutro S or Sutro? I have Sutro S.
Keep lens cleaning clothes in all your Jersey pockets. Leave them there. Don’t use a shirt on Oakley lenses.
I use my shirt all the time. They get scratched but they're still good.
