Re: Sunglasses

I have some cheap ones that I wear when I absolutely have too. I hate wearing sunglasses though. I think my face is too small and they look stupid on me.

Oakley doesn't sell just frames but you can get just lenses.

You might be able to get them at a eye doctor's office that also sells glasses. Oakley has authorized sellers for the prescription lens, so you may be able to just get the frames from them and put whatever lens in there.

I have the polarized Juliets, had them for 5+ years I think, and I just got some 2.0 polarized wires, it was time to replace the Juliets but the frame was still great and the lens were ok.

You can pick out the frame and get whatever lens you want in most of the stores and online as well, a lot of the glasses are customizable now. But you can't walk into a store and buy only a new frame if you already have lenses.

Cake, you talking about the store at the Natick Collection, or whatever it is called now?

Re: Sunglasses

Funny how those huge ones of the 70's (Ray Ban style) are back now. 10-15 years ago people would laugh at some who1 wore it, but now it's THE sunglasses!

Re: Sunglasses

I just created my own Oakleys, kind of a cool thing on the website. Most I've ever spent on sunglasses though so they better be sweet. Green frame with gold accents kind of an Oakland A's look, but the Navy didn't look Notre Dame enough... Broken within 2 months I can almost be sure of that.

Re: Sunglasses

I havent paid for sunglasses in 5 years. My current pair was given to me by a friend who just bought a new pair, nothing special, but i only wear them driving.

Pared, yours are m-frames which obviously have the interchangeable lenses and Longhorn you have the Flak Jackets which also have interchangeable lenses. I work for Oakley so if you guys have any questions let me know. And I think I probably work at store you've been to Longhorn so there's a chance we've met at some point. The orange lenses you were talking about are probably the fire which you can get for the flak jackets.

I've been slightly brainwashed since I've been with the company for awhile but when your talking about lenses Oakley's are the best on the market hands down especially for sports but all the lenses are built the same way whether it's the women's glasses or sport glasses. Once you try Oakley's you never go back, their the best, no other way to put it.

That's them! M-Frames...

The only problem Oakley might have is their glasses are so nice as long as you don't lose them you probably don't get repeat customers often.

I love my Oakleys and only see replacing them in the event that the pair I have breaks.

Re: Sunglasses

I had a nice set of Oakleys, the silver/chrome frame and fire lenses, until some douche stole them........

Re: Sunglasses

I have had my Oakley sunglasses for 8 years now. They are starting to get a little worn.

I am considering the costa del mar sunglasses. Do those that own them enjoy them? Would you recommend them?
