Any help identify these please?

Hi, I found these in a drawer at my grandmothers house. No idea age but they must be quite old. Any advice, they look to need new lenses as they are really scratched.

Replace lenses and keep or bin them?

Thanks for looking, apologies for newbie post

Best place for new lenses on these Gen1s in the UK?

I’m sure there are better but, I use galaxy lenses from eBay. Got some of the gold/clear for my 1st gen frogs I recently got and they fit perfectly.

Nice find.
Gen.1 Frogskins.
This classic Oakley deserves better than Aftermarket Lenses.
I would be careful about stressing the frame.
Old O-Matter is brittle and could brake during the Lense change.
Please check the the orbitals for microcracks.

I find the old Frogskins are made differently than ‘other’ older omatter. I’ve rarely seen cracks in frames usually seen in the sport frames, probably because they’re not made to be light. I’ve actually find them ‘stiff’ and harder to flex than newer frames.

Just be careful and don’t yank on em like the Hulk and you should be fine OP.

Pop out lenses back to front, insert front to back.

I have two Gen.1's in very good condition and maybe I'm overprotective. I hoped someone with more experience will chime in.
Thank you.

What are my options then? Sorry for all the questions

Here the O-R Database for Oakley.
I am not sure the exact color of your Frog but it could be Rootbeer.
I that case you need a set of Gray lenses.
