OCP Frogskins

[Feelin' Froggy]

...they do not have lenses that fit limited edition frogskins :-/

Limited Editions are different sizes?? I've never noticed that..

Yeah. Try putting a set of blacklight lenses into the BKRW's and you'll see they're too small. You can see a physical gap between the lenses and the frame.

Just called the Covent Garden O-Store.

They don't have any of the OCP items in store

Said that I could try to ring customer services under "01462475400" to see if I can buy some lenses from them.

The 'flagship' UK store is pretty sh*t to be honest. I know several dealers who get stock of items well before the flagship store. Also, it's the flagship store, you'd think if you wanted to know anything about Oakley's products it would be the place to go but the staff just look at you blankly whenever you ask a question. It doesn't leave you with a very positive opinion of Oakley going by that experience.

That's exactly how I feel like every time I go there...

I swapped in a pair of Gold Iridiums on my SE bikes from a generic polished clear/gold pair (you can see my frogskin collection in the recent purchases thread). Didn't have any problem.... can't really see why the limited editions would be sized different? The blacklight lenses did seem bigger than the other ones I ahve gotten, but not big enough to be an issue...

Same thoughts...have never had an issue switching out lenses between select pairs...then again, I don't own $1,000 glasses

The only knowledgeable Oakley employees are the ones that actually surf the interwebz in their spare time.

i swapped in a spanking new fire iridium lens from the BLs into my DQMs, no problems though..
