My first oakley is the splice back in 2002

Gen 1 frog 1989 or 90 I believe.

Mine was the pearl white Eye Jacket with Black iridium lenses, back in 99.
The frame broke and got replaced like 10 times, the last time they didn't have any replacement frame on pearl white, so they gave me an FMJ grey or something like that, sad day, I loved my Pearl white EJ.

Hmmm. It was either a Fives 3.0 or C-Wire.

Yup. Used to get Rayban Predators but they kept breaking. Got back from Iraq (OIF1) and decided to splurge. Tried out several brands and price kept going up but settled on Juliet Ice Plasma polarized. Lost them at One Wilshire (I think) after close to 10 years of faithful service and 2 or 3 tuneups. .

razor blades back in 1987, fully customised - the absolute must wear at the time - i worked part time at a cycle store and paid for them weekly with my wages... but i had to have them!

This was my second pair in 1989…my first was a black with fire lens Frogskins.

I think my first were my Oakley metal squares (c squares?) around 1999-2002? I don’t recall the exact model and sadly the eye socks are falling apart and leaking an oily substance. I was hoping for replacements from Oakley but sadly they dont make them anymore. Here is a photo for others interested in seeing these great sunglasses.

I had some XX Twenty's a long time ago. I only remember they had a green frame, can't even remember when that was.

Lightly boil the ear socks and then wash with soap. That will at least get them clean. The leaking oily stuff is your dna
