One important detail missing from the video is the replacement lenses are available and are interchangeable between the Sutro Lite and Sutro Lite Sweep. No need to buy both.
Thank you @nickwind2584 . I was looking for this info everywhere. I bought Lite sweep 24K lenses for cycling but I will gone need the photochrom lenses. I will buy the only lenses and swap them.. Greeting from Turkey mate.
Original Sutro looks the most distinctive and stylish, Sutro Lite is more functional, the coverage is so good on and off the bike, without the lower frame you forget your even wearing sunnies. Sweeps don't look as good(IMO).
Love the feedback and we couldn't agree more! The Sweep isn't for everyone, but we LOVE that Oakley is designing more Sutro options! A little something for everyone.
Sweeps look the most athletic, like a more sophisticated pit viper. Could see them being a huge hit among runners, baseball players, football players, etc…
The Sutro tends to fall off my face when I look down probably too big for me although I love the look. I stayed with the Radar EV path for riding bikes.
Check out the Sutro S! With an SFW of 132mm it's the perfect frame for those in need of a smaller size compared to that of the regular Sutro... www.sportrx.com/oakley-sutro-s.html
Hey there! The SFW of the Sutro Lite is 136mm and is the same frame chassis as the Sutro Lite Sweep. The only difference is the depth and shape of the lens. Meaning, the lite and lite sweep lenses can be swapped out in the same frame. The regular Sutro (not the lite) is 139mm. Hope this helps!
As of now Oakley does not offer polarized lens options in the Sutro Lite or the Sutro Lite Sweep. Not all PRIZM lenses are polarized by default, check out our video guide th-cam.com/video/fpY_-RpAZ98/w-d-xo.html
Not at all! While most models that come with a Prizm lens have a sticker on the front, sometimes they unpeel when cleaning the lens or simply fall off due to lack of adhesive.
The Sutro Lite is way better for snow and water sports. It reduces glare from below. And for shooting sports if offers more protection. And way better wind blockage for mountain biking and motorcycles.
Sutro is a full frame sunglass meaning the lens is entirely encapsulated by the frame. The Sutro Lite is a semi-rimless model where the bottom of the lens is exposed.
I don’t understand why you’d want cycling glasses that leave so much gap on nearly all sides. They’re supposed to block wind, bugs, and debris… not act like a brick wall erected on your face.
I’ve got an ancient pair of M Frames that I bought in 2003 that do the job of blocking all incoming particles particularly pollen. Both of these have larger deeper lens coverage so you’ll be good for wind, bug, pollen blocking. The advantage of my old frames is that swapping out lenses from gold iridium to clear is a three piece click which takes seconds and has never once failed. Take care of your glasses and they will take care of you. A good pair can last decades if handled right.
Sutro fanatics, which Oakley Sutro is your favorite? The Sutro, Sutro Lite, or the Sutro Lite Sweep?

Good call Nick! You are correct, the lite & sweep lenses can be swapped out as they do use the same frame chassis 👍

Are you sure, actually tried that, but the sweep lens was a big to wide and I couldnt fit them :(
Thank you this why I’m here 😂
You didn't mention the lenses are interchangeable
can I put a sutro lite sweep lens replacement on a sutro lite frame?
YEs! The Sutro Lite & Lite Sweep lenses use the same frame chassis and can be swapped within it.
Hello, i love the design of Sutro Lite Sweep, would you also recommend them for running and trail running?
Yes and yes! 💯
I’m thinking of buying some sutro lite sweep vented, but in case the holes don’t work for me, are the lenses swappable with these two sunglasses?
Hello! Yes, the Sutro Lite and Sutro Lite Sweep use the same frame chassis making it easy to swap the 2 lens types

Is it better to go for the vented sutro lite sweeps?
Are the Sutro lite sweep lenses compatible with the Sutro lite ?
They are! Both lenses use the same frame chassis and can be swapped out accordingly.
what exactly is the lens of the sunglasses “sutro lite sweep”…946502 isn’t it?

i went with the regular sutro.
The model Sutro Lite in 1.07min is Matte Carbon or matte Black?
It's the Matte Black with PRIZM Road lenses www.sportrx.com/oakley-sutro-lite.html
Which color lens are these?
Oakley Prizm Road!
DO they come with the extra nosepad? In my case wasnt one but i read that there ist an extra nosepad in it.
Hey Daniel! They do not come with an xtra nosepad, but you can always purchase additional hardware for a specific frame from us (SportRx) or Oakley.
Can you use sutro lite for baseball the prizim sapphire one?
You sure can although you may achieve better contrast and color boost results with the Prizm Field.
which one fits best to a person with low bridge nose?
Sutro Lite, NOT the Sweep since the Sweeps lens is much longer/deeper in comparison which increases the chance of cheek contact.
Hi.
Isnt the frame size of sutro lite 139? Not sure for the sweep coz i dont own one...yet.

Are these polarized by default? I purchased a pair for $202 from Oakley and the only option I saw for lenses was Prizm…

My Sutro lite didn’t come with the prizm sticker in front of the lense I purchased from Oakley store should I be concerned?
Not at all! While most models that come with a Prizm lens have a sticker on the front, sometimes they unpeel when cleaning the lens or simply fall off due to lack of adhesive.

What are the name of this lins
It's the PRIZM Road lens www.sportrx.com/oakley-sutro-lite.html
How is Oakley Sutro different from Oakley Sutro Lite?
Sutro is a full frame sunglass meaning the lens is entirely encapsulated by the frame. The Sutro Lite is a semi-rimless model where the bottom of the lens is exposed.
Sweeps are a pass
