Split THUMP is the 2nd generation of Oakley sunglasses with MP3 player. The new Oakley design features removable headphones and buttons which are cleverly integrated into the Oakley "O" logo. I guess if you are an Oakley fan you'd appreciate the additional MP3 functionality, I've never been into their style, so can't judge objectively. It's impressive that they do innovate in this space, but it's also hard to compete with Apple/ Nike combo these days.
Split THUMP does have some clear benefits :
* Unique versatility for everyday use. With hidden controls and removable speakers, your favorite sunglasses are also the best wearable MP3 player.
* Grab-and-go convenience. Your MP3 player is built into something you already take with you.
* Style. The clean, uncomplicated look is inspired by the lifestyles of athletes from surf and skate, creating a true work of art that reflects their approach to life.
* Music in motion. With no wires, Split THUMP lets you truly wear your music instead of dangling it.
* All-day bliss. It’s so comfortably lightweight, you’ll probably forget you have it on.
* Simplicity. The controls are right where you need them and nobody knows they are there.
* Performance. Sound quality that rocks is combined with the world’s best optics.
