    What Was Your First Pair, Or What Got You Hooked On Oakley

    I think my first Oakley's were some nondescript wrap around types (probably a base model). Before a year was out, the lenses were flaking. I didn't think too much of the quality of Oakley. The next Oakley's I bought were the Frogskin Jupiters's. Saw a dude wearing well worn Jupiter's in...

    White = Douche?

    I'd say it has more do with the 'Orange County' look. Flat brimmers and sleeve tat uniforms. Here in Aus, there is a similar group disparagingly referred to as bogans that have adopted elements of the OC look (motor sports/motocross are extremely popular within that group) but also crossover...

    Oakley Echelon Collection

    When the VR50 Ruby is released, I'm buying them. I had the opportunity to buy Echelon Radars but I didn't like the frame colour (faux carbon) and I could not rationalise the purchase so close to buying Chrome/Anti-Freeze Radars. The lenses are great though. A must have for the Radar lens collection.

    Oakley Echelon Collection

    I want the Ruby VR50 Photochromic lens for my Radars, yet Oakley don't seem to offer them as a lens replacement option. I don't dig the frame colour (carbon).

    My TDF Radar Collection Is Now Complete

    Those splatters are full of awesome. I've got the Anti-Freeze and BMX Chrome Radars. Is it still possible to score new Retina Burn Radars?

    Bye Bye Oakley Collection

    Hmm. I don't like flipping stuff I've bought. An example. I have a Sinn EZM1 that I've rarely worn. It's worth money and if I were to sell it, I'd profit but I can't find it in myself to part with it. That's why I'm not going to collect Oakleys... Less than 10 is not a collection. haha. I won't...

    Shipping Your Oakleys Intl

    I had a bit of rant about that in this thread. There are exceptions to that - the Holbrooks are priced reasonably (once you factor in shipping) in Aus compared to buying OS. I bought my 24K Hollies from an interstate shop though as the locs, only had the boring colour ways.

    Polished black is the best choice for Scalpels (with black socks to complete the stealth look). The dark grey frames is a bit of a miss. I was thinking of buying the Dukes for my bro in law to replace his battered WileyX's for Christmas.

    OakleyVault Has AU Red/Blue Fuel Cells And Holbrooks!

    Ditto for Australia. Oakley Aus are rubbish. When I compare prices on Oaks compared to U.S, it really puts just how much price gouging has been going on in Aus (not just glasses of course). There has been a huge drift in Australia from the public to go go online for purchasing vs bricks and...

    Darwin, Aus.

    First post. Just found this forum when on the hunt for Retina burn/Anti-Freeze Radars. I was thinking it'd be awesome for a centralised locale on all things Oakley and that a forum would be ideal for this. Have been getting a bit of a sweat on for sunnies and have been on the hunt. I'm not a...
