...other than the "any colour you like so long as it's black" options and the fact that they're about half the price of normal Oakleys...?

I fancy me a pair of Flak Jackets, you see.

No, a real shop - looks like they're in Leicester which is just up the road from me. I'm sure someone has posted a link to the place before, I'm just not clear what (if any) the differences are. Not the broadest range of lens tints, mind...

They are supposed to be sold to serving LEO/military persolell only, hence the lower price. Guess that's why they are all black & relatively plain too. I got my M Frames from a matelot mate who picked them up from the US PX way back on Telic 2 for about $40.

I think these are the special issue versions for seeing through women's clothing in hot weather!

what Mattbee said SI is for serving personel hence the blacked out logos etc..

I have Flakjackets and goggles.. they are exactly the same as the normal ones only black.

they shouldnt be on main line resale.
