New and obsessed with Oakley

[gensoft]

Hi all

I recently got into Oakley about a month and a half ago and I became instantly hooked. I already bought four pairs of sunglasses plus the famed Oakley Flesh in the tan colorway. The vintage stuff is what really pulls me in. I love the wire styles and the older o-matters. The early oakley stuff is so interesting to me and I really enjoy the design aspects of it all, a lot of the styles feel super nostalgic but seemingly still relevant and wearable. I've been able to get into the whole brand thanks to all the people who documented and archived the history, makes it all relatively accessible! Anyways one of my hunts that I'm on at the moment is to find a pair of WHY3 with the ruby clear iridium lenses. The VR50 emerald iridium also sounds amazing, but haven't seen actual pictures of it, love the sound of it though..
