Hi all
Wondering if anyone can help on this matter.
I bought the Oakley Radar EV Path with trail lens (direct from Oakley) to use primarily for off road mountain bike riding. However, I have been using them to go hiking in and recently lent them to my wife who loved them. Cue new purchase for Christmas when I saw a pair via Wiggle.co.uk.
Having just received them the Trail Prizm lens is very different from initial examination and more so when wearing them. They let in noticeably more light and tend to boost the contrast (not sure if this is just due to more light). I haven't tested them properly outside, unless you count looking at the garden?
I am very disappointed in the difference. Can anyone help / offer any reasons e.g. changes in production, quality issues etc. Just wondering if some of the more experienced users may cite to historical issues etc.
I cant believe its necessary but is it best/safer to buy direct from Oakley - I wouldn't suggest counterfeit but (having worked in manufacturing) maybe due to different outputs, production runs etc. I must confess, I am very disappointed.
Any help most welcome!
