Frogskins
Frogskins were originally used to classify the
O Matter glasses that did not fall into the higher priced
Jacket category. The price range was usually with in $75-$105 range, not including Polarized premiums. Initially, the main difference was the lack of
Unobtanium on the ear stems and nose bridge. With the 'Jackets'
Eye Jackets and
Straight Jackets, and the 'Coats'
Topcoats and
Trenchcoats, it was easy to draw the distinction. For most of the early Frogskins, the names tended to be numerical such as
Four,
Fives and
Tens. The Twenty's ran into some naming trouble with another brand, and thus were labeled
XX. The XX, however, was a seemingly misplaced item with only the name matching the convention of a Frogskins, since it had ear socks. Also in the original lineup, was the
New Frogskins, which was replacing the
Classic Frogskin and rounded out most of the edges.
Later on, newer models appeared like the
Monster Dog, which gave a sportier look with a lower price. A larger model, the
Monster Doggle, and a smaller
Monster Pup also appeared in following years.
