My Oakley interest and desire does not currently sit on par with my income level (one is less than the other - you decide which is where).

My friends think I'm crazy, but that is nothing compared to everyone else here (I mean that complimentary).

I got into Oakley at the start of the year 2000. A guy at high school had a pair of black Fives and he was telling me how Oakley were the best sunglasses. He brought in his Oakley catalogue (the 1999 catalogue) and I saw for the first time the Romeo and the Juliet. I was completely and utterly hooked.

Then, M:i-2 and X-Men hit, and the Ruby Juliet debuted. Oakleys were definitley getting cooler by the minute.

I went to a local surf shop that was selling their old Oakley stock at half price, so I begged my mum to get me a pair of Black Iridium Eye Jackets for AU $90. It was all downhill from there.

Everyone at school had Oakleys. Most of the girls had Minutes, and some guys did too. A few guys had Fives, but I was the only guy with Eye Jackets.

But then Oakley brought out the Twenty. The FMJ/Ice pair was all the rage for me, so I decided to get rid of the EJ's and invest in some Twentys. I was spending a lot of time on ebay browing the Juliet auctions. A local optometrist had a 20% off sale, and I went in planning to get the Ice Twenty, but walked out with the Ice Juliets!

I found the o-review with four pairs of Oakleys. (Ice Juliet, Black Juliet, Black Splice, Ruby Twenty). If you check out my collection now you will see the damage this place has done! I love it.
