Oakley Replacement Lenses or whole replacement

So my Old Oakley Radar lenses are overly scratched, but I cannot find replacements in the "colour" I want. I did try Oakley but they just said they were an old model.
My favourite colour is sort of brown, maybe Tungsten. Can anybody confirm this from the photos and suggest where I can either get replacement lenses or whole glasses.

Tungsten maybe

Thanks

They could be G20/G30 lenses, I tend to just buy whatever is cheap off ebay for my ancient M-Frames, although lenses are getting very thin on the ground for those these days.

Revant Optical

Why replace the frame if you like it?

My experience of buying “pattern” lenses for my Oakleys from Revant plus a few others is they last a tiny fraction of the time of genuine Oakley lenses. The iridium film is already peeling off my latest ones after about six weeks of use. The Revant ones lasted less than that.
Genuine Oakleys were still fine after three years daily wear (apart from a horrid scratch from when I dropped them which is why they needed replacing).

Revant aren't shipping to the UK at the moment. Normally my go-to for lenses.

Have you tried the Prizm Trail lenses?

There are some complete glasses bargains around at the moment eg Ebay1

My Revant have been great, but they weren't iridium.

My Revant replacement lenses which were iridium/polarized are very easy scratched and delaminating in various places. Unfortunately oakley no longer have pitbull lenses so I'm going to try a different after market seller.

I went from Oakley to Rad8 when my last ones needed replacing and I cannot say enough good things about them and their customer service.

Plus much cheaper too.

I haven't found any replacement lenses other than original oakleys that are prizm trail replacements.
Anyone got any suggestions if they exist?

I don’t think there is anything that comes close to Oakley Prizm lenses. As far as aftermarket replacements, the only ones I’ve used that come close in quality are Linegear lenses - you have to order them direct from Japan though. They mostly focus on X-Metal replacement lenses though (Juliet, Romeo etc) - not sure if they make replacement lenses for current models.
Revant and Fuse lenses are the next best but neither are much good in comparison.
