Got my first as a birthday gift from my first girlfriend back in 2002 i was 16 years old, it was a minute red frame with fire lenses.... Lost on the beach a year latter... Then ii bought a monster dog ducati in 2005 and from then on it was all crazyness! New girlfriends, got married, womans and oakleys come and go but some only come and dont go. Lol

Now iam up to 40 pairs and no plan on quitting.

J###### X-Metal Juliet with Ruby Red Iridium was how I started back 2001. I remember working very hard for it while I was a student and was one of my very first premium items I bought for myself. I still have this pair with me and it has served me very well!

Mine's quite funny, what got me hook was the X-Metal Juliet with ruby lens, sadly by looking at it thru the display glass because I can't afford it. I spent more than a decade to own one. But I am thankful to my first Oakley pair, Oil Rig 1.0, it got me by before finally getting the Juliet.

Mine was M-Frame hammers. Saw Jose Canseco wearing a pair on a poster at the batting cages one Sunday afternoon and went with a kid in our recon department at the dealership to buy a pair Monday morning. We went to Sunglass Hut at the mall and tried to get a deal on 2 pair and the kid working there said if they get caught discounting Oakleys they would have their franchise yanked. So we ponied up and paid retail each for a pair. Wish I still had them! Sat on them 3 years later at a softball game. Good times!

Not my first pair but the ones that got me realy hooked on Oakley's for me is the Gen 1 racing jackets.
The sales rep from Oakley was at my local store when they came out and I ended up buying one of the pairs he came with.
They where jet black with black iridium lenses.
