New Member - Oakley Splice dilemma

[Chugger22]

Hey guys. 43yo and been wearing nothing but Oakleys since my parents bought me my first frog skins back in the early 90’s. Still have those broken frames & lenses in a box somewhere. My most recent purchase was a pair of Flak 2.0; bought them 2 years ago on a flash sale but hadn’t wore them till last week. My daily wear glasses are an old pair of Oakley Splice. Started to notice I was having some vision problems after my commute to work and then noticed how bad the lenses were peeling and vision my was distorted. I’ve worn these heavily for probably 10+ years. I started shopping for replacement lenses and then discovered these are somewhat desired by folks. Overall the black matte & black crystal frames are still in good shape, ear socks as well, but I am missing one nose bomb. Lenses are toast.

So my question to you guys is this: do I buy some replacement lenses and keep abusing these as my favorite do anything glasses or should I pawn them on ebay and use the cash to put towards another new set Oakleys. I need something to wear while mowing the yard ASAP

Get a nose bomb and replace those lenses

 

[SharkSugender]

Penny nosebombs can be used if you can't find OEM splice nose bombs

Aloha and welcome to the Forum.

Do not sell and fix that bad boy up.

Find some parts and keep wearing them....
