    Well long story short, these were my "go to" ski equipment, for many years.
    So "like new" condition!

    I have this assortment of lenses, if anyone still has a set of frames, to use them??
    I did see a set of glasses on eBay, but in mine, the plastic has weakened in the frame and failed.

    The guy at OAKLEYs Outlet Store was impressed at my original boxes!!
    And sold me some Ferrari Mad Man, on closeout..

    Other than that, not much help!
    Sure enough in one box was the receipt from my purchase, in 1988....

    Send me a PM if you can use them, I hate to toss them out.
    Lots of Pro Surfers (in the 90s) rocked the Oakley Blade look, they are excellent for glare.

    Reminds me of scouring RayBan stores, when the "Wings" model was discontinued.

    It was a one piece wrap around lens, that Uncle Charlie favored......

    Wow, I wore those when I was a bicycle messenger in Manhattan. If you could afford a fix-wheel track trainer, Oakley Blades, and a custom messenger bag, you were successful. :)

    I've gotten new temples and restored them, so I'm keeping them. I collect vintage Oakleys.

    Looking good!!

    Nice work, and the matching temples "tone it down"....somewhat!!
    :D :D :D

    Pamper that coating, don't recall if I sent the insert on scratching...

    The garage clean out continues.....

    My Ferrari red Mad Men are vintage now, that Ferrari has gone on to RayBans.
