Oakley And Shade Station At The London 2012 Olympics

[Shade Station]

I'm sure everyone saw the London 2012 games this summer, and I'm sure that you noticed that over 600 athletes were wearing Oakleys too!

We were over the moon to be invited to the Olympics by Oakley and had a great time...even managed to get a custom pair made for us there (i've stuck a couple of pics below).

What do you guys think of them?? Future classic?

GB Icon. LOVE IT!!!!!!...................:thumb: Would love to have had an hour or so in the safehouse.

Icon and matching bag. They do look pretty good.

I'd be happy to model them for you on Signature Sunday if you want to post them to me.


(Legal Note: You might not get them back.)

 

[Shade Station]

Yeah, the safehouse was amazing! We managed to get a guided tour too which was awesome. Everyone at Oakley was great to us that day

Ahh, exactly, the GB icons really make the frame; that's why we went for them...like your style Oakley_Sight.

Without that legal note Herbsley, I might have believed you then...cough cough.

Would love to have had an hour or so in the safehouse.

Ditto that.
