i'm getting 3 of my friends some new oakleys, and myself a new pair for quite a discount. this is my third pair i'm buying for myself (i originally had e-wires, which got pretty messed up when i went mountain climbing =/ , my second pair were polarized a-wires for casual, and i'm getting new eye jackets for sports), and say it's definitely worth it for the original. when you get foakleys then you know they're fake and you feel pretty stupid wearing them in the first place IMHO . i've known friends who bought some fake ones that looked quite legit, but we all knew they were fake because whenever anyone asked he couldn't lie and just "umm yea, they're real !" . he ended up buying a real pair, and said there was noticable improvement (which i couldn't vouch for, never owned a pair of fakes).
i couldn't afford full price for all these oakleys i'm buying, so i usually pay less then retail through deals . if anyone's interested in a pair of real ones i'm about to place an order for some of my friends, just PM or email me and i'll see what i can do
