Still looking.

I am looking for non-polarized lenses!

You can keep looking for these and probably not find a set or you could ask a resident chopper to cut you a set from Flak Jacket XLJ's.

...or go ahead and settle for the polarized version. Oakley still makes / sells those and would cost about the same as some non-polar custom cuts, maybe even cheaper...

Good luck.

settle

What does that mean?
To go polar costs $90 from Oakley and a non Flak XLJ costs $60. That leaves you $30 towards the chop and you've preserved a rarer colorway will be more valuable at resale time.

Works for me.

But, from a collector's POV, do custom cuts have the same value as OEM cut? I'm not trying to argue, I really don't know.

New thread started for that consensus.

It's really for the collector's value in this case. The frame is in beautiful condition and was originally equipped with non-polarized lenses. Concerning having the lenses chopped: I would not know how to tell a chopped lens from an OEM one if they both come without any etching on the bottom right side. Hence I would not expect a different value. Would you?
