Which Frame Do You See The Most On Other People?

[OakleyCan]

Gascans appear to be dominant up here.

Gascans, oil rigs, fuel cells, flaks, and half jackets.

Gascans and Flaks.... oh and white/text oil rigs with fire lenses. I see that way too much.... but I live here in big truck boo-foo territory.

Usually Jawbone/Racing Jackets for cyclists here. For casuals, FCs, Juliets, and HBs.

 

[Herbsley]

As a cyclist, I see mostly Jawbones/Racing Jackets, followed by Radars

Aha.
So, proof that Radars are a slower sunglass, then.

 

[Herbsley]

I sometimes have to remind myself that I (and we) as collectors/fans/fanatics are the the very small minority.

You, sir, are spot on. In relative terms to the global market, of course we are totally in the minority - we are really a niche group of enthusiasts in the great scheme of things.

Perhaps every time I bang my fist on the table and say "Oh not another boring frame - and in Polished Black with Warm Grey as well" . . . . some fresh-faced Lux-Oakley executive is standing in front of a PowerPoint pie-chart talking to a roomful of suits and plates of cheap biscuits saying "But, ya know what Herb, judging by the responses here so far, 'boring' sells . . . . And, it seems, . . . . <he will pause here for effect> . . . . it sells by the sh1tload."

I mean, Gascans?? Blimey. People are still buying them?

I ask all the surf shops and optometrists if they have any old models in the back of the store, obviously they ask why. When I say Im a collector they cant understand why I would do that!! After a moment of confusion they get back to trying to sell me the newer models. Maybe its just my part of town but I have NEVER seen anyone wearing frogs!

How dare you fling insults like that! Lux always provides the finest mid-grade biscuits available.

When I play baseball here in Toronto Canada, almost 80% of the players wear flak jackets and the rest wearing radarpaths.
