Very cool square wires....

[XxRuMKaxX]

Up to this point I have only ever bought one other wire frame and then avoided them like the plague but this SUPER COOL Square wire Gen 1 came up today and in all my years of looking at Oakley if I ever saw a pair like em I do not remember. Leather Wrapped, Seller says lenses have a slight delam but otherwise they look really clean. No Box unfortunately. Tell me about them please.... Numbers made? Loose Value? Anything cool about them. Wire frames are an area I have 0 knowledge of history and value.... I did find them at O Forum before purchasing and see they sold for $180 new way back when.....

I bought a pair back last year as a gift for a friend. Mint condition, no delaminating with original lenses. Paid 120 for them. Nice pair for sure

I paid full price then but the uniqueness and cool factor is worth it! Now watch.... I will have to have everything Oakley ever leather wrapped. The addiction keeps sprouting new branches....

Managed to snag a rare pair for £32.50 off the bay

Just bought a Leather clad Square Wire,.minus the box, but it's the glasses I'm after. Photos later when I can keep my eyes open.

Dang! At the kind of price I like grabbing at to!!!! So there are a few around I take it ... not a super limited run or anything?

No, not really. There is one on eBay still from the UK, that I put details up for a short while ago. They are quite limited.

I found that listing... So ballpark value is $150USD give or take a $20 bill... Sure wish mine came with the box!

Mine didn't either, but stranger things have happened, than me finding a box for a pair I own.
