Thanks! If you want the brown base tint, now's the time to grab it as we're nearly out of them. We're changing to grey base tint, if that's what you want, you should wait. :o)

Oh, the Purples were a brown base? Glad I waited! I prefer the grey tints.
Still need a Romeo frame for Dawn to put them in, though. ::LOL::

hey Yukio, looks like Dawn and Sarah (my gf) are into the same kind of colours and styles...I envisaged these for Sarah...

Sweet~ Very talented.

and I do requests lol any combination you'd particularly like to see and havent come up with yet? I'd be all too happy to virtually render for you

Hum, this "l/e ghost red" looks interesting David, whats the story?

+red perhaps?

I just purchased a pair of this "Ghost Red" lens together with Blue Iridium (with Green) from David few hours ago. Will post the pics of the lens with my Juliet once I got them!

It looks okay...But I think its waaayyyy overpriced.. sorry but just my opinion

The +reds are like $199 but the ghost color is only $79 for a limted run of only 10 pairs total that seems reasonable to me... Mine are on the way too.

Sorry to be away so long. I had to block o-review at work, so I can't spend all day on the computer. :o) One of the members asked me to reply, so here I am.

Ghost Red is interesting, but too difficult to produce for them to be production, and that's why they are Limited Edition. I think I'll be able to produce 7-9 for each of the 4 models. Those who saw them mounted on a frame and outside absolutely loved them. It kinda makes other colors look boring. If possible, we'll try to make more lenses with vertical and horizontal color variation.

Hi!

Hows seeing thru the lenses? It bothers me to get lenses that might give me a headache... The + reds being toric on an XX frame gives me headaches =(


are these lenses comparable to the oakley lenses? thanks!!

Hey David,

just one wish. Please think about droping some Crosshair lenses. I really like your new colors - the bronze based metallic purple, the bluesky and the ghost red.... but none is available for the crosshair... and I think I'm not the only one interested in CH lenses.

Thanks,

Greets Ju

I am down for crosshair lenes too :)

None of our in-house lenses are toric, or more correctly, as Jim put it "Polaric Ellipsoid lens geometry. A different arc top to bottom than side to side... with taper correction." (I don't think you can call a plano lens toric, but I could be wrong). They are 8-base curve optical grade polycarbonates (light, impact resistant, 100% UV protection, and scratch resistant) similar to Oakley's, but currently ours are 2mm thick to reduce any chance of warping during mirror and other processing. We will be moving to GE Plastics version of polycarbonate called "LEXAN" in the near future and should be able to produce 1.5mm thick lenses.

We do have 2 Oakley polaric ellipsoid lens, the +Red and G26, and most of these are purchased for looks rather than functionality. I personally had no vision problems with +Red in a Penny, but it really depends on the person. Technically, it's not the ideal lens to fit x-metals.

We've had trouble with Crosshair, in terms of cut quality, so that's why we don't offer them now. We'll try it again with 1.5mm lens, and if it works, they will be available. Also, HJ and/or HJ XLJ lenses are in the pipe, so that could mean Romeo II as well maybe? Still, we're talking months...

We are always working very hard (even blocking o-review at work) to come up with innovative products, increase quality, and reduce price. You have to remember that it's only been a few months that we've been producing our in-house lenses. Oakley had it's beginning as a grip manufacturer for bikes, and it's interesting how they ended up making sunglasses instead of bikes. For us, right now IS our humble beginning, so please be patient with us.

David

Well said Daivd, cant wait to get my ghosts for my juliet, xx xetal, and romeo 1.0 too.
Yes, I am the dweeb that bought three pair. :P

Sounds nice! I'll keep on checking your shop for updates a (in the hope to see you've solved the crosshair problem ;) ).

Salut!! anyone could tell how you meticulosly observe and describe stuff. You must be as anal with your work aswell =P
Wish you the best of luck!

David,

Do you have any plans for Rx lenses?

Probably not with our lenses. We were going to offer Oakley Rx'ed sunglasses and OCE at an attractive price on our website, but we've been too busy, so our website is on the backburner. Not even sure if anyone would be interested.

I just got the Red ghost lens. They are fantastic!!! I wish I had ordered some for my Juliets and Romeos.

Any verdict on the metallic purple?

Thom, pls share some pics with us! and how do you compare it with Ruby and +Red lens?

Erik, if mine come today I will for sure...

Todd, u placed order too? haha I ordered mine last week but have yet to receive. I believe the shipment will take a week but cant wait to put them on my Juliet. It seems like many of us here have dealed with David and all are satisfied with the products. Thumps Up David!
