Hawaiian Fuel Cell, Finally!

Oahu, Hawaii
So before we moved to Hawaii we were on Oahu for vacation maybe 8 to 9 years ago. Went to the Oakley store and they had these Fuel Cells with the Hawaiian Islands on them. Wife said just to get them and I was not completly sold on the frame, so I did not get them. Years go by and I would see them pop up here and there. I started liking them and wish I had bought them when they were in the stores. Well all these years later I find them a couple of days ago on Offerup and jumped on them right away. These are pretty hard to come by now. Only came with bag and glasses. I had asked about the box and they did not have it. Went to meet the seller and they were super nice. They even threw in the case since they could not find the box. Better yet they are pretty much brand new. I canʻt find a mark on them. All for $70.

Awesome I’m super jealous!
 
I see you are looking for Hawaiian Fuel Cells. Just wondering which ones? I know of (3) different ones. Not sure if there are more.
The pair you just got is my most sought after fuel cell that I’d like to snag. It’s one of my favorite fuelies.
 
Theres also the Kanaka Maoili from Pipe Dream Surf Shop.

Thats a great pair you have. I had a friend who was vacationing there when these came out. She picked them up for me. If I remember I paid $170 for those. great score for $70

What does that pair look like? I know the owner from Pipe dreams. We spoke a while back. He has special Hawaiian Icons made for FC frames and a few other pairs.
 
A new Pipe Dreams FC release:

Yea I saw these. He will also just sell the Koa Icons. He has these special made. Guessing it is laser cut. Looks great in person.
