So a while ago I posted about getting some grey tortoise Frogskins from Oakley's website. Turns out I saw a pair on SGH website but they were LXs instead, and came with black iridium lenses. Since this was the colour I was looking for I decided why not try them out. I really wanted polarized black iridium lenses but figured I could always hunt some down.
So the glasses showed up and they are pretty sweet but I did some research on putting in regular Frogskin lenses because there doesn't seem to be any LX lenses on the oakley site. There seems to be mixed results with that working, I figured I would try another brands lenses.
Revant Optics had both frogskin and frogskin LX lenses listed on their site. So I ordered some LX black chrome polarized lenses. When I got them today it turns out the packaging says Frogskin/Frogskin LX which made me worry because I know they are slightly different sizes.
Installed the Revant lenses and they are a crappy fit. They rattle around in the frame and can easily be popped out. Seems they thought their regular Frogskin lenses would fit the LX. I am super disappointed as I thought they would be LX specific lenses as that's basically whats on their website.
Just a heads up to anyone thinking of trying them. I've emailed Revant to see what they can do ill post back when I hear back from them. In the meantime I'm on the hunt for polarized black iridium LX specific lenses.
