Frogskins are so gay now

Goddamn EVERYBODY is wearing these "cool retro shades" in a whole fuckin rainbow of colours, it's like a standard UNIFORM that goes along with your cool toque and other colourful pieces of outerwear.  You guys all look like clowns.

CLONES CLONES CLONES I tell you, they just look retarded now.  And not to mention all the fake pairs everywhere too, really what's the difference anyways.

Sorry if you own a pair (probably 65% of this site, at least)

Can't we buy other models of sunglasses too, just to mix it up? Jesus

I see a few kids with raybans and a few kids with frogskins at my school the rest are fakes. Fakes are everywhere but authentic is hard to find.

to those arguing over the Oakley vs Ray-Ban business... Ray-Ban bought Oakley back in 07.


The company that makes them also maks D&G, and Versase glasses. So Oakley's lenses are not the best in the world, they are equal to those.


Anyway, this stuff happens a lot. What you should be saying is Oakley has the best lenses marketed to the action sports industry.

Ray-Ban is a lifestyle brand. You could say, Ray-Ban has the best lenses marketed to the middle class lifestyle brand follewers...

and so on.

This is not entirely true. Ray-ban itself is owned by Luxottica, which is who bought Oakley. Second of all, the same lens materials and technologies from Oakley are not used throughout all of Lux's brands, including Ray Ban. To say that Ray-Ban, D&G, and Oakley are the same construction/materials/quality isn't true at all.

This. I happen to look retarded in any type of frame but the wayfarer/frogskin style. So just because lots of other people wear them, I should get something different that looks ugly on me?

Plus, my frogskins directly got me a hookup with a girl. She came up to me, did the "I really like your shades", and proceeded to shove her tongue down my throat literally 10 seconds afterwards. But that's gay right?


Trend whores suck, but those who are so offended and annoyed by them suck even more. I hope this is just a troll thread.

So, saying that he doesn't care what other people think of his sunglasses makes him a tool? Interesting...

getting all defensive and "tough guy" over arbitrary things is a trait shared by many of his guido brothers.

hahahahah how am i a guido? i'm like 12 percent italian, dont have a blow out, i dont deck myself out in ed hardy, "gtl" is not my favorite phrase, and i dont look like i belong on jersey shore. infact, a have a severe hatred for guidos.

and yeah i get defensive, there really is no need to insult people, especially when i said something like "my spy haymakers are legit". i was merely voicing my opinion, not insulting anyone elses taste in sunglasses. yet, i was insulted for my taste in sunglasses.

calling other people bitches because he doesn't give "shit" about what they think is what suggests that he is in fact a tool...
