I want a pair! I work for a different sunglasses company though so Oakley is the enemy.

I do work in the 3D product development department though so I guess I'll just have to create a rockin 80s design for us to sell as well...

Haha!

What I find funny is that they had a teal/white set which was the first color combo I owned back in 1986 (age 15)

Still have my original clear Frogskins with the iridium mirrored lenses buried deep within a storage unit here in Austin. There's a picture of me in my high school senior yearbook with them on. (Yes, I'm old.) Loved those things.
