Well after all the glue is out here are the results......

In pic 1 it doesn't look like they will fit. I tried tilting back and forth trying new angles. Either the front part of the earstem near the temple would hang over the case, or the nosebridge in front.

In pic 2 I put the microfiber bag on and for some reason it looked like this was going to fit......and it did.

Pic 3 is closed with glasses in the case. They are very tight. And you can see a bit of the bag. It's tough to tell if the frames are being bent. The case closed and it didn't feel like there was any resistance as it was clamping shut. I was able to get the case completely closed with out the bag hanging out.

I'll play around with this some more and post results

Super cool idea and execution. Some may ask "why?" I say "STFU that's freakin cool!" LOL. Thinking about putting any sort of liner in there? Like sacrificing a couple micro baggies? 3 for $10 at the vault. And you could have a patterned liner!

Would like to get a liner in. For now I just put them in the m.f. bag.

Microfiber could be an option.

Where did you find them 3 for $10? The old Vault is closed and Oakley online has black and white for $6 ea. Patterns are $10 ea.
