OakleyOO9013 Frogskins Square Sunglasses

In 2012 I got my first pair of Frogskins as a gift from a boyfriend. I didn't love them immediately... they looked like cheap gas station sunglasses and wayfarers had a child and named it Frogskins. But they were a gift and they were comfortable, so I wore them. That boyfriend and I broke up a year later. It was a long-distance relationship and I found out he had been cheating. It was painful. I got so annoyed with wearing the glasses he gave me that I actually threw them out of my car and stomped on them. They literally would not break. The arms popped off & the lenses got scratched, but they were still fixable and ready to be good as new. It made me mad at the time, I wanted the satisfaction of smashing them into smithereens. But I also couldn't help but be impressed with their resilience. Time passed and I started dating again. My new boyfriend borrowed my car one day and found them dismembered in the door pocket of my car. He put them back together and casually showed up wearing them. He asked what happened to them and I lied saying that I had accidentally dropped and stepped on them. He seemed proud of himself for fixing my broken glasses. Later, when he wasn't around, I threw them in the trash to be rid of them once and for all. Finally the one lingering reminder of that failed relationship was gone! Over the course of the next few years I bought several other pairs of high-end glasses. Each pair got broken or lost almost immediately. It was like a curse or something, I could not seem to hang on to a pair of glasses. I found myself missing the low-maintenance functionality of my Frogskins. They called out quietly to me,"You took us for granted." they whispered like a ghost haunting me on days with blinding glare reflecting off every surface. Eventually I broke down and bought a brand new pair of Polarized Prizm Frogskins.Here is a list of things I love about these glasses:1. They do not tweak or become lop-sided!2. Since there is no metal hinge, the arms simply pop off and back on if they get "accidentally stepped on".3. They are so light weight! These are the only glasses that don't give me a headache from the weight or fatigue from wearing. (unlike the headache of a cheating bf)4. They don't become loose over time.5. Lenses are easy to replace.6. Polarized + Prizm is the best (as someone who spends tons of time on the water, it's a game changer)They have completely won my loyalty and love, unlike that cheating boyfriend, and I have finally separated the glasses from the man who introduced me to them. The end.

Frogskins are an excellent value. Prizm everyday lens are my go to. I crossed shopped smith chromapops and really like the technology but the aftermarket replacement options helped put me over. The simple hinges of the basic frogskins allow me to pop the temples back in when I inevitably “break” them off. I can’t tell you how many sunglasses I’ve broke from sitting on them or breaking them in my pocket. Long live the frogskins

I love the clarity with these sunglasses. They are worth every penny! I liked them so much I got myself a second pair.

These are the second pair of frog skins and you can’t go wrong with them! They are sturdy and last forever!

Perfect

very good, love the lens
