Anyone tried the Oakley Thumps?

[OakleyOneKenobi]

I recently saw a resurgence in the vintage Oakley Thumps, curious if anyone has tried them. I think it's such a cool concept (while not entirely practical by today's standards) and would love to know about the user experience.

Do the earbud/speakers adjust enough to fit most people? Is the sound quality okay? Is everyone I walk past gonna hear what I'm listening to?

I love the intersection of tech and fashion and have been looking to get my hands on some. Hope to hear what you all think of em

cheers

Yeah, they give you a black eye.

HUH?

I think he means, they play for a limited duration. Then the battery just dies, leaving you with tuneless Thumps.

Radar Pace is the best one. You can grab them on Ebay for $250 easily. Bluetooth and coaching, they sound great as well. I have one I use and one NIB.

Wear it but don't listen it like 90% of us I guess

Dislike the styling, prefer the o.g .
