I knew there was something Oakley about you.......

 

I used to live down the street from the factory is part of the reason and a few friends worked there

 

I toured the Oakley factory in socal while I was in college. Some people bitch about how much oakleys cost, but after seeing firsthand all of the tests they go through and standards (often exceeding milspec) they meet I no longer balk at the price. They aren't just a name, they are quality eyewear.

 

I went to high school next to an M&M factory..... I was fat in high school

 

I buy all my sunglasses from home depot...

 

I wish I could...... But Home Depot doesn't have my RX

 

We'll considering I lose my glasses monthly, it's a precaution I have to take.

 

i have all fender flares, front & back. but they're black

 

There are three things I will never cheap out on if I can help it. Shoes, mattresses, and eyewear.

 

I deviated from that rule two pair ago, got some at REI... After a few uses they must've been squished and ended up with only one temple piece. Back to HD I went.

 

Shoes - payless (boots are a different story)
Mattress - I could sleep on ply wood and be comfortable
Glasses - Well you know

 

Different strokes for different folks I guess

 

I've never heard of Wiley X, so I can't comment on them. I guess we will have to agree to disagree about the value/price of Oakleys. All I'm saying is they do actually do a lot of testing etc above and beyond what most eyewear companies do. You aren't paying a hefty price SOLELY for the name "Oakley" like you would be doing for some other top name brands from other industries.

Oakley was bought by luxottica awhile ago and their glasses have changed greatly. I used to be a big fan.

 

+1 to Wiley X. best glasses i've used.
Used to have a nice pair of Bolles as well that i really liked

 

Why are you getting rid of the snorkel? Anything wrong with it?

 

It's not for sale, but I'm willing to loan it out for people that need a core.

 

You would be better selling that one whole due to the gear ratio. Only good for a core at this point for thin gears, not the industry standard unless you drive a wimpy little turdgen

 

I'd like to have a spare, and I'd probably end up putting an ARB in it. If someone offered a decent price for it I'd probably sell it.
