Cole, that is awesome. In high school (1986 grad) I had a pair of iridium razor blades with a blue bridge and neon yellow bows! Ive had Oakleys of some sort pretty much ever since...but I recently sprung for a pair of polarized new style Wayfarers.

I truly am stuck in the 80's.

I found a pair just like the ones in the OP in my turbo...right next to the car phone. Ill have to get a picture of them, and start wearing them because apparently they're cool.

I was born in 1986.



I still have my 80s toys, though! Also, obnoxious bright retro shades. (Not Oakleys, but sort of similar, heh.)

I wore RayBan's ala Sonny Crocket. I had them stuffed away in a drawer until very recently when I found out what I could get for a pair of vintage original RayBan's. I sold them for almost what I paid for them 29 years ago! They just didn't look the same on me with my shaved head...It was a great look when I had lots of wavy hair! I don't have the vintage glasses, but I do have the vintage Porsche!
I doubt any teenager back in the 80's wouldn't give his "left one" for a bright red 944 turbo! Even more so if it came with the blonde on the hood!! (you all know the poster I'm talking about!)

Damnit…us 90's kids didn't get to partake in any of the cool stuff! I definitely have some Tortoise Shell Ray Bans at the ready in my car, though…

Vuarnet Cateyes were big in the '80s.
