Resurrecting this thread.

Today I noticed on the inside of my left lens, there is a big area that seems to be worn out on my lens. Almost as if a layer of tint wore off or simply evaporated.  I only use a polyester lens cleaner to clean my glasses. The problem is now that when I look towards the sun or scan the horizon, it creates a glare that I'm not liking at all.  I emailed Strike King about this today, so we will see what I hear back. I'm hoping they'll replace it but I did buy my pair from an Ebay retailer so I'm not sure they will. Anyway, I'm kind of bummed as I really do like the glasses a lot.  I will post again when I hear from Strike King.

Surprised more people don't wear Oakley. I have some Batwolfs that are polarized and a day out on the water with those is amazing.

Hmm, I am pretty sure a lot of people wear Oakleys.  This is just a thread about the other glasses.

Mine have done this as well, I'm sure it was from the spray on sunscreen I use. Do you use a spray on sunscreen?

No, lotion only. Did you get yours replaced or even try?

I use J Crew Fiber in my hair during the week. I am wondering if it is from the hair product when they were rested on my head. I typically don't use these glasses for daily wear, but my other pair finally broke.

Wow man. that's much worse than mine. I'm not even sure I could capture the damage by picture but I will try when I get a moment.

Here is mine. You can see the slightly different shade in the inside of the lens. That is not a glare, it's like the first layer of lens wore out or something.

this is good stuff.  My Oakley's are ready for new lenses.  I was debating buying new Costas. Now I will get these 40 dollar glasses and just get my lenses replaced in my Oaks

 

awesome.

I have to say, A++ customer service from SK.  I got an email back in less than an hour:
 

Mark, we are sorry for the trouble you have had with the sunglasses.  If you will send them to Strike King , we will replace them and send you a new pair and something extra for your trouble.

 

Thank you for using Strike King Products

I'm good with that. Shipping will cost me 5 bucks to get new ones. However, I would like to know what caused it.

Please let us know and I am interested in that something extra!

I got my package from Strike King today.  My glasses were replaced with a brand new pair. I also was given a Strike King hat and a 2014 catalog. Free stuff is good, wait time was a bit longer than I expected but lapsed over a holiday weekend so I understand.  All is good now.

Just throwing it out there but if anyone is interested in trying a pair of Costa 580 Glass at a discount (250 retail, get them for 170), shoot me a message.

 

I know this is akin to posting Daiwa stuff on a Shimano thread, but we are talking about your eyes. Gear is replaceable, eyes are not.

Wow, not a single PM?

 

That's surprising.

Post in the Flea Market, I'm sure someone will bite.  Maybe they're scared of the beard.

Nah, I'll just let it ride here.

 

I throw the offer out occasionally.
