    Did Deep Water Prizm Lenses Change at Some Point?

    Ahh, so the color of the iridium coating can affect the base color. I didn't think of that. It makes a lot of sense. It also makes sense that thousands of lenses made years apart will have some slight inconsistencies lol. Thanks for clearing that up. Science!

    Oldest Pair In Collection...

    Here's my 0.6! These were actually my second pair, my first was a pair of Orange Iridium Frogskins, but alas they broke years ago... I bought these new in 1995 for mountain biking, and they are still my primary pair of clear glasses. I also sometimes use these for shooting and racquetball. I...

    Did Deep Water Prizm Lenses Change at Some Point?

    Either way, if that's the case I'm glad all of my DWP are polarized, they're my favorite lens tint to see the world through...

    Did Deep Water Prizm Lenses Change at Some Point?

    Maybe I'm missing something here. I have Deep Water lenses that are marked "Prizm," and Deep Water Lenses marked "Prizm P." Are they just different generations?

    Did Deep Water Prizm Lenses Change at Some Point?

    50 Shades of DWP? Back to Black Iridium for me lol. There are polarized and non polarized versions of DWP Thanks for the info, I've been around oakleys since the 90's but this is the widest variance I've ever seen. It's cloudy today but the world seems the same through both sets, despite the...

    Did Deep Water Prizm Lenses Change at Some Point?

    I recently bought a couple sets of Holbrook DWPP lenses from eBay. When they arrived I noticed they were significantly less blue than other Deep Water lenses I own. Even the base color looks different. Here are some pics that don't quite do it justice, but the difference is still obvious- The...

    Found Looking for some Holbrooks and Frogskins...

    Thanks for the info! I picked up the Frogskins from alldesignerglasses. I didn't see them in a search. The only ones I saw were overseas. I saw the ones on eBay, they look somewhat more used than described- the frames look discolored in some places (not just an artifact of jpeg compression,)...

    How To Properly Clean Your Oakley Glasses

    I didn't read all 28 pages of this thread, but I did skim it. Hopefully I'm not posting redundant info... There is mention of using Purell and other hand sanitizers to clean our glasses, and also avoiding isopropyl alcohol. The main ingredient in all hand sanitizers is ethyl alcohol, then...

    For Sale Infinite Hero Split Jacket Lenses

    I used the dark grey IH frames with matte jaws, thru bolts and icons for one pair. For the second, deceased pair I put the purple thru bolts and gloss black jaws on my matte black frames and sandblasted the whole thing to even out the finish. They had Black iridium vented lenses, and I lost them...
