Did anyone watch the Olympics? Almost EVERYONE in the ski comps wore Oakleys except a small few who wore Adidas.

Haha.

That's because they have too much money than they know what to do with, so they go out and by over-priced sunglasses. :lol:

The skiers wore the Oakley M Frames and the Goggles during the entirety of the Olympics.

I only use Oakleys and non other.

for mountainbiking I use my M Frame, wch has seen plenty of riding and has to be replaced cause eventhought the glasses are really strong, they are full of scratches from falling and from just rind in the woods.

in the car I have a C wire:

it needs some new smallparts cause they are worn (got it for almost 5 years now)


and I got a Oakley Minute wich I have 2 sets of glasses for (transparent blue and a blue Iridium)

They are really flexible :lol:

Atm I am not planning on getting a new pair of glasses, the R and J series are pretty nice, but I use wires for a while now (had a E wire before but I sat on it and it did not survive my fat ass :lol:

My first Oakley was a zero, back in 97 I bought it when I was in the US, but I left it at a hotel in the UK, I called them but they never found it :wink: so someone there has a nice pair of glasses....

I first Need a new M frame for riding cause I was looking at it today and noticed that the rubber parts are falling apart :lol: (it is also almost 8 years old and seen many miles of riding so I don't blame them, but I want a nice non foldeble M frame with preferebly blue glasses (iridium)

some call me crazy that I only use Oakleys but I find them to be perfect for biking and more importantly I don't get a headache from them and I do with alot of normal glasses, and they have great lenses wich give great vision, and are hard to scratch

My father handed his old Mframes down to me. He first got them some time back in 94. He got them for skiing at the time, used them for biking aswell, and ended up using them through his entire military career. Now I am using them.

They lasted perfectly EXCEPT the earsocks are missing, nosebomb is melted of the plastic, and the old frames are cracking in the center. Other than that, its perfect. (mainly the lenses, just a couple scratches on them.)

Hey blitz, do you have spring SWs or just normal ones?

I had a Polaroid P4015A, but I broke them. I should buy them again, because they are really nice.
