Wait, there's a VR35?!

There is no VR35 lens, the closest is the Behave - Polished Gold - VR35 Gold 05-314, a lens only represented with this glass.

I have just had email confirmation from a top quality reliable source at Oakley that VR stands for VERMILION RED.

That would actually make more sense.

That would actually make more sense.

so i say it in the first post... and people are up in arms.... RVF says the same thing... and its logic.

btw not singling you out Batters haha.. just sayin'... that i CREATED this thread to say it was vermillion red all along..?

For years I was told VR stood for Vermillion. For the past 2 years, it's been Violet Rust. So, if Oakley says its Violet Rust, it's Violet Rust. Violet Rust. End of story

Vermilion Red as the OP stated seems to be the correct name. That's what I've been told a few times, although one person did throw the "rust" in there I always just assumed that the consensus of Vermilion Red was the proper term. All I know for sure is I love pretty much all the iterations of VR...
Just put some VR28 black in a x metal Juliet and it looks MUCH better than I would've ever guessed. My new go to pair actually.
