Is it worth coughing up the 50 quid for genuine ones, or will the sub £20ish ones all over Amazon/eBay make me crash more than I already do/smash at the first sign of a breeze? Anyone tried them?

Revant are a safe aftermarket choice. Mine are definitely a bit better than cheaper ones I used before

There's a lot of crap out there, but I have used Revant which were pretty good. A little thinner than the original lenses so they were ever so slightly loose in the frame but not at all noticeable in use. A bit lighter perhaps.

Cheers guys, where did you get the Revants from? Site states they don't ship here, and can't see clear ones listed on Amazon/eBay

I bought some polarising/mirror finish revant lenses for my old jawbones a year or so ago. They're chipped/scratched to hell now.

The original Oakley lenses lasted almost a decade and only had one or two scratches with exactly the same usage. I wouldn't recommend revant, I'll be trying to source some original lenses (or taking a punt with el cheapos) this time.

That's annoying, I just got them through Amazon but it's Race Jacket's I've got

I use the low light prizm in my Jawbreakers but clear can be picked up at a discount if you shop around

First one on Google search

Not for Jawbreakers, but I bought some 'AceFrog' branded clear lenses for my Flak Jackets on Amazon with very low expectations - they have been fine. I've neither died, caught fire or succumbed to cat aids to the best of my knowledge.
