its gotta me the original mumbos with hybrid lense for riding and the zero 0.3 for pre/post for chillin-they rock!...but those factory pilot eyeshades are ultra cool for showing off in still today!

Gotta be Mumbos for me, rocked a Pink splatter frame/Blue Iridium lens set for ages (still have them!), chopped in my broken Eye Jackets for a current pair of M Frames last year (Jet Black Frame/Persimmon lens).

Treated myself to a pair of Radars (Crystal Black frame/Clear lens) for xmas though, top glasses! the M Frames may get used less

Was tough not to vote for Blades or Frogskins though, wore my Old Skool Froggies on holiday last year......a timeless classic!

Cheers

Gotta be the frogs guys – but the old ones, not the re-issues I'm afraid (those dalmatian spotted ones are just plain wrong on so many different levels )

What's wrong with the Dalmatian ones (if you don't mind me asking?), do you have a stash of NOS original ones as a pension fund? he he!

I prefer the old ones too but I'm just curious

Cheers

i am still on my second pair of mumbos the first pair i lost durring a race , was doing a climb and was kinda muddy and got splashed and couldnt clear them so took them off and went to put them in my back pocket on my jersey , didnt notice they werent there till the race was over , the win was bittersweet after a loss of a 150dollars par of glasses

stu, if you ever wanna sell that pink splatter frame-im ya man, i only need that one to complete the set of 4 splatter frames.....let me know!

 

[Err]

The crystal frogskins were more my era, but they crack up with time.

Better to find a pair of original black japanese made ones with the metal hinges, they last. Only took me a year of looking

Oakley Mumbo

Still using my blue iridium / splatter frame ones
Admitedly with the arms epoxyed rigidly back on, so they're like the later M Pros!
