[Closed] PSAish- Are the prices on Oakley.com a bit on the cheap side at the moment.....

blimey. custom split jackets are less than half what i paid a few months ago 🙁
that makes me a bit sad

Can't be right custom Jawbone with extra lens £108.

Sorry Matthew 🙁

I've just ordered Jawbones and Flak Jackets. £166. Have to see whether they arrive.

Top notch PSA there!

cheers vinny

hopefully a pair are on their way to me £93 for the jawbone

Just ordered some half jacket with spare lens.

Bloody hell!

Jawbones with VR28 polarised and VR50 photochromatic for £130 😯

Just saved myself about a hundred quid!

I wish i hadn't bought 5 pairs this month 😕 😆

do they do prescription inserts?

Thanks OP, another set of jawbones just ordered

wwaswas - you can get prescription lenses for them, but not inserts. As far as I know you can only order prescription flavours via opticians.

Glad I've overcome my fear of contact lenses - Oakley's are now almost affordable 🙂

Thanks for the heads up on this Vinnyeh, two pairs of Jawbones cheap helps ease the pain of having a Bike stolen this afternoon. Well a wee bit..

Great link cheers

ordered some too.. cross fingers genuine??

top info.. 😀

are you checking the last order summary box? it gives you the propper price in that one.
i reckon you will all get charged full whack.

no hold on i am being a nob ignore me.

Are oakleys really that good? I've been using a pair of £10 sunglasses for most of my road riding, is it really worth spending £130 for a pair of jawbones or whatever?

Yes

Do the VR50 photo-chromatic lenses go light enough for darker conditions (i.e. in the deepest depths of the forest)?

How? What do they do that mine don't? Genuine question here, considering buying.

From Mr 'slam that stem?'.... Lol.

Yes, they are that good. I've been using M-frames for the last 15 years, and they are that good. Plus, the customer service is excellent; snapped a frame after 12 years, sent back to Oakley, replaced for £15.

Try some.

Cheers Vinnyeh, you're a gent for that

thanks!

VR50s cope with everything except dusk and full-on darkness. They're ace. No problems at all in woodland even after being in bright sunlight two seconds beforehand.

thanks for the headsup - you just cost me £93.20 on a set of Jawbones for riding in. Would be less painful if my wife hadnt bought me polarized split jackets at full whack in april though.

will wait and see if all is right at these prices. The oakley bods are going to have a bit of a rush on when they get in tomorrow morning 🙂

Blimey! You're about to cost me about £90!

Torn between M-Frames and Radars... nnnnnnghhhhh...

hovering over buying a pair of fives squared with black iridium polarised lens for £63... i'll regret it if i don't, won't i?

Just ordered some jawbones, top link, cheers

Rumour has it that they know of the price error and are honouring orders placed today

*this is a rumour only! Don't quote me!*

Just about to order some jawbones, do they look ridiculous on smaller heads? I'd go for split jackets, but they don't do the vented lenses...

I have a smaller head and Jawbones are fine

Cheers Houns, ordered a pair - fire iridium and clear lenses, 93 quid! Bargain!

This is insane, how can I resist.
