Loving my first purchase - Eyejacket Redux

It always starts like this……. “I just want to look at em honey”! 274 pairs later they just give up on thinking they can stop you from buying them. 😂. Hell, I try and tell myself this too with ZERO success.
Awesome sunnies bro!!
definitely biting the bullet rn 😭,, looking at a pair of tortoise eye jackets now on ebay 😅 am hesitant though since i know that initial release of ejs are said to be brittle

It starts with a test “just to see”, and then it rolls into a Category 5 hurricane that will never be stopped! Make sure you enjoy it though! It’s fun to have and collect these amazing pieces of art!
The Original Eye Jackets are extremely brittle, as that is the exact pair that started my obsession! I have several of these that I do not wear anymore because of that! The “New Eye Jackets”, still 20+ years old, are more friendly because of the new plastics. I take em out for a test ride every now and again, but still have that “snap” in the back of my mind from the first generation.
Just start buying XMetals! You won’t be disappointed….. 😃
 
How do you like them? I've been considering picking up a pair but am a little worried given my big ass head.

They’ve become my main pair rn. I have a kinda wide head so most sunglasses need to be adjusted for me. Had these heated at Oakley Vault when i bought them and was told that they stretch out w/ use too so no complaints on that front. Personally would advise you to wait for a sale as I don’t think I would’ve picked them up if it weren’t for the discount I got lol.

Oh I didn't realize they offered resizing services at the stores! That's a great tip man thank you :). I'll def make a trip out to one of the vault stores near me next time there's a big holiday sale. Cheers!
