Oakley Prizm Ruby Polarised in a matte tortoise brown frame

[younger06]

As per title......I have bought a pair of Mainlink XL with Prizm Tungsten Polarised lense/matte tortoise brown frame........I am thinking of getting Prizm Ruby Polarized lenses to let a little more light in for dull, winter driving.

Would the lense look out of place in the frame??

They would look good together.

IMHO though I don’t think there is a ton of difference between prizm ruby and prizm tungsten when looking through them. Sure there is a few % difference in light, but with that tint I don’t think it really is noticeable, I’d keep using prizm tungsten and see if it would work- I think it flexes into lower light really well.

I just started wearing a pair of Square Wire with the Prizm Tungsten Polarised lense.......beautiful lense.

I drive all day, every day in Ireland (mainly dull conditions)

I might just leave the Mainlink as they are and get a pair of Maui Jim with their Rose or HT lense for driving in poor conditions.


I personally think the Prizm Ruby lense in the Tortoise frame could look great.

These are the 2015-2016 Ruby iridium, not prizm, in tortoise matte fuel cells. 2nd pic you can get an idea of the deep red and purple hues.

Oh, by the way, chicks dig the ruby/ brown tortoise combo, so proceed with caution!

I think ruby and brown tortoise looks great.

Exactly what I was hoping for......thanks a million


(fairly sure I'll be ordering some Ruby lenses)

And when the sun is setting and they’re just laying around they look pretty cool too!
