Do You Remember Your First Oakley's? How Many?

[TNGoldbeard]

Took that pic last night
I was lucky enough to find a new set of lenses for them several years back along with new nose bombs & rubber so they are pretty minty.

Think I have 22 Juliet’s

This place will wreck me financially...

I’m gonna have to go through a box of old photos now. Like

lol, I’m gonna have to go through a box of old photos now. I really didn’t take that many pics back then. Someone would have had to taken a pic of me in my Oakley’s. When did they start putting front facing cameras in cell phones?

I'm looking tonight. I know of 1 with my Eye Jackets (on a boat at 13/14) and 2 with my Juliets (holding my dog in the river, sitting at Bonnaroo).

First set was a pair of original Eye Jackets black with black lenses and silver icons, bought in high school with my min wage part time job... Long lost

Second a pair of Juliets plasma Ice, had to have those after X-Men was in theaters. Had those forever, 2 sets of lenses and earsocks needed a tune up when I didn't know they could be tuned. Stollen from work in rough shape...

Third was a pair first gen Wiretap silver with fire lenses. I still have them just in very poor shape...

After that can't remember what came next.

There’s already a thread about this a long time ago.

First pair I purchased was a Emerald Flame NSJ. The second was a Emerald Splice followed by a Crosshair 1.0.

Agreed. I always wanted a flak 2 to be released in root beer but it never happened.

OT, but have you seen 9188-59 - matte rootbeer w/ SWP? It comes with brown rubber and looks good swapped with Prizm Tungsten polar.

 

[TNGoldbeard]

Wow
Braces n all

 

[Jaydub]

First pairs were Crystal purple Violet iridium Frogskins.
then Blades followed by Razorblades.
then all hell broke loose

I forgot about those! They actually looked really cool with the SWP lenses too. Really surprised Oakley didn’t make this a more common colorway
