As cool as they are, they really just arent functional to wear as regular sunglasses.
They really should make the frog leg ear booms removeable so when you want to listen you can.

If your glasses do not say made in the USA on the stem then they are not. Prob 80% of the frames are made overseas (Japan or China). Most of the frames have (CE) writen on the stem which means they are imported.

All of the lenses though are made and cut here in the US.

Due to pollution regulations in CA, they are unable to make most of the frames in the US.

I was at my local vault to today and they had the Penny in their discounted case. Not sure what the price was but they were definately cheaper than retail.

Really a shame Oakley has yet to ship these to dealers. Just another prime example of how Oakley screws its dealers. They actually make people go to the Oakley stores to buy them instead of giving them to the dealers who need to work for a living.

I believe the cases are made by a place called Fabcon or Morgan Metals. Try getting the # off the net or Oakley might even give it to you. You can prob get a case made without the logos on it.
At one point they were actually selling the small cube displays without the O's.

Or PM me. I have a Mega tower up for grabs.

I have tried these on. Personally I think they are the best color combo for the Gascan.

I am a fan of Oakley products but some of their business tactics are very questionable.

Obviously it creates brand awareness.
But I am sure you are loosing tons of money if there is an O store next to you.
How many times have you tried to order products and the answer you get is that they are on back order or sold out, yet the O store have tons of item your customer wants.

Now what?? Your customer going to the corporate store to buy it.

I bet you have prob gotten a few calls about the time tank?
How much do you want to bet that the O store next to you will get them before you will.

Unless you have VERY loyal customers or offer a discount, your customer will go there to buy it.

I agree its good to have company owned stores but when they shut down stores who have supported their product to the fullest for many years, its just isnt correct.

This particular store even had a whole Oakley section...

Just an honest opinion.
They do this to most of their dealers from my experience.
We all love the product but when it comes to dollars for Oakley, there is no support for dealers. Everything is for their own stores.

Just like the time tank and every new release, why do you think O stores get product even before the largest OPD independent retailers???
Because Oakley makes the products, therefore the profit margins are larger. They try and get customers to come into their stores and buy as soon as the products come out.

Then 2 weeks to a month the mom and pop stores who really need the product to sell so they can make a living end up getting the product.

Its just not correct..

Sounds typical of Oakley to cut into local dealers business.
Just another example of how Oakley doesnt care about its dealers.

Here you have a great store doing great business for Oakley and what do they do, pop an O store right next to them.

Oakleys moto should be Shi**in on the little guy.

That boat belongs to the IL rep.
Oakley paid for the art work so it can be used at wakeboarding events. Oakley and Mastercraft both had something to do with the creation.

I think your doctor is more interested in price margin seeing as though they usually mark up there lenses 80-90%.

It is a larger version of the Twitch with a more raked backed lens. The arm is the same as the twitch design.
I have a pic but cant post do to it not being released yet.

They take about 30 seconds to turn dark from clear and about 1 min or 2 to turn back to clear.
