if your opinion of skiing is 50% fashion, i have to ask what side of the continent you are from.  while fartbags get a laugh everywhere, at most places where there is real skiing to be done, no one really gives a shit about other peoples fashions on the mountain.  plus, what' s the use of having fancy pants and jackets and goggles if they are going to be covered by waist deep powder and face shots?

It's ok, but I'm confused. What's the difference between razor blades and RAZOR BLADES? You're pinky finger hitting the caps lock?

sadly, around the midwest where im from, fashion seems to be way to much of a factor in judging how good someone is. and there is no waist deep powder to cover our pants in here. im trying to personally fight this trend by dressing like a dirtball.

haha no they're not oakley. if they were i would have bought every single one and resold them on here!

they're basically the same though, you cant tell the different at all...minus the oakley symbol obviously.

i just couldnt imagine spending $150+ for those..

i really like the idea of glow in the dark glasses, just because its a cool idea but considering i dont wear sunglasses when it's dark out they would never be noticed, i wouldnt but them. plus the fact that they are 150 dollars. yeah that too.

115 for oakley sunglasses? That isn't bad AT ALL. A ton of oakley sunglasses are expensive as hell. You get what you pay for, they are usually good quality and have polarized lenses.

I got a pair of jogger-style 80's glasses, way more original and cooler IMO.

see, i grew up in the midwest as well, and there is a huge difference between wearing snowpants instead of jeans, and letting fancy clothes become 50% of the reason you think someone is a good skier. 

the  midwest is a place where this is even more apparent, in my opinion.  there are people who have the money to buy new gear every year, and the fanciest outerwear and goggles, and the trendiest hand knit hats, but for every one of those people who blows ass at skiing, there are 2 farm kids in carharts and blaze orange hats that rip them to shreds on the hill and in the park.

my dad had those exact frames in the eighties they were clear purple and so sick. he gave them to me and i rocked them until they broke anyone who pays 100+ for them is a straight fool they are not as sturdy as other oakleys so just look in your parents old shit and i bet you will find some

I went to an Oakley outlet like 3 months ago and they had shitloads of Frogskins and Razor Blades. I should have bought them all, and sold them for ridiculous amounts of money on here. You are so fucking stupid, Aspen! Grrr!
