Hi all

can someone help me to identify these please. I bought these new around 2003/2004. I later bought a 2nd hand set which I thought were the same but are actually different as they are square wire 2.0 with the hinged arms. Having successfully found an aftermarket set of replacement lenses for the square wire 2.0 I've realised that the lenses needed for my originals is slightly deeper. They measure approx 50mm wide and 32mm deep.

These are square wire 2.0s of some type. There were three versions of the square wire 2.0. The standard, non spring hinge, the spring hinge version and the 30mm lens which I believe was also non spring hinge.

The 30mm version was made specifically for some overseas markets that required a larger lens to qualify as sunglasses. I want to say it was Australia but I can't be 100%. Obviously these have made it to other markets over the years.

In all honesty, its easiest at this point to just send these older wires out to have lenses cut for them. Even stock lenses dont always fit well due to variation in production. I would suggest reaching out to @Chris A Hardaway for options. Here's has cut all my replacment wire lenses.

Thanks for this info. That makes sense as I bought these whilst on holiday in Cyprus. I will look into some custom lenses. Pity as the ones I've bought off Amazon for less than £10 fit great in my other set of wire 2.0 with the hinged arms but are too small for these ones.
