Just an update. Called Oakley this morning and got the same story. Busy season, new glasses, lots of stuff back ordered, can't get em etc etc. I didn't get nasty with the poor girl, I know she was just a customer service lady, but I did explain nicely that I didn't pay $240 for replaceable lens glasses so I could NOT get replacement lenses. Told her I NEEDED something lighter for both work, as well as a shooting competition at the end of the month. No one on this board would buy a BMW or Mercedes that took special oil if they weren't actually making it yet.. Anyway, she did a search through the system and found out that they are only selling lenses for 2 styles of Fast Jackets, only through CS, and the Permission is not on the list. I asked for something lighter, non Polarized, in a rose or brown base and she said the only thing they could actually sell is the VR50.. For $90. Half the price of the glasses almost. Ah well, such is life I guess. Gonna try it out and see how it goes. I love the glasses, but I am not a happy camper with Oakley right now. It's going to be hard to convince myself to buy another pair instead of some Gargoyles or something that can just be replaced for the cost of Oakley lenses.
