How good are these? I'm tempted but worried they would not be light enough in persimmon mode....???

There's only one that is good enough to stop a bullet..

I've been well impressed with them , I got them dirt cheap when nevisport was going down the pan (£43.00 :shock: ) at their lightest you can still see well enough in dimly lit forest and they change quite quickly so you don't experience the black hole effect for long

Is there an Oakley retro site as I have a pair (kinda skeletal, metal) that I hate but don't know what they are???

Could they be T-wires?

Personally I use a pair of Avenir shades. They're far more comfortable than any Oakley, Animal or Bolle set that I've ever tried. I can also buy about 10 pairs for the price of a pair of M frames.

Oakley WHY 3's:
Rimless specs. Moulded Ti frames. Prescription lenses. Photochromatic in sunlight. Custom swoopy lens shape, done by my optician. Hideously $$$. Not these, but similar.

Oakley Crosswire S:
Retro "Aviator" style. Black-chrome frames. Prescription photochromatic lenses. Much less $$$. Similar to these.

Not wanting to bring politics into this, but I went right off Oakley the day the danish prime minister came into the shop I worked in, looking to buy a pair of Oakleys so he could go cycling with Dubya, who is Oakley customer number one....

But that's just me.

Rudy Project Rydons - interchangeable lenses and prescription inserts. Fan-bloomin-tastic!

Great stuff.

Oaks' are for poseurs. Arnet Big deals Finest sunnies in the world ever I'm down to my last two pairs though, so if anyone knows the whereabouts of any.....

I used to use rudy projects but when they broke I switched to £2.99 Aldi shades with interchangeable lenses.
