Got my new Oakleys!

New Oakley X-metal Penny polished w/ black iridium lens. I took a gamble and purchased them from ebay. Turns out the seller is a shoe store and an authorized Oakley dealer and a Oakley premium dealer at that! I was worried about them being authentic but am not anymore.

just raving.

Oakley's are the best.

I bought my first pair, and had them for 1-1/2 years. Although they don't cover the lense itself my left lense started to PEEL from the inside. So I took it back to the shop where I bought them, and paid them $10 to ship it to Oakley. Not only did Oakley replace the lense, but the entire frame itself (or in other words, they gave me a brand new pair!)...

That surprised me, but I was totally happy with it.

Although too bad, I dropped them off a waterfall about 6 months later.. =(

Yeah, this is like my fifteenth pair of oakleys since about '92. My most expensive to date and first pair bought online. last pair was silver twenty w/ green iridium lenses. had those for almost a year and still got $95 for them. thank you ebay.
I try but I can't break the mold, OAKLEYs are the best.

I had two pair of Oak's before, both zeros...or eye jackets...one or the other. The first set either got lost or stolen, the second set I snapped both arms. Since they really don't make the style I had anymore, went for a pair of Nike's...and they were a bit less expensive than the cheapest Oakleys that I could find (like $120). And according to Nike's site, they're supposed to be $100. I got em for $78. Cool!
