Oakley Wiretap Sunglasses - 2006 BCS

I absolutely loved these sunglasses. They were the first Oakleys I ever got and was hooked right away. They looked great, was lightweight yet solid construction. I wore them casual and for sports and they were fantastic. Unfortunately I made the mistake of leaving them in my check in luggage when I went through Eastern Europe and they were stolen (I had other sunglasses in there too which they totally overlooked). To my dismay I found this model is no longer available... anywhere (I have tried to find them on the internet all around the world) I have Square Wire 2.0 now, which is great, but will always remember my Wiretap which I still miss when I see photos of me with them on.

This was also the first product I bought from Backcountry.com and they got me hooked on you guys too...

Okay, I bought the pewter/red glasses, which on the website have dead-on red lenses and a white/metal looking frame, where as in actuality the lenses are more purple with red highlights, and the frame is closer to black than white. I don't know what magic camera they used to shoot the demo photograph, but I couldn't reproduce those colors if I tried, without Photoshop anyway. But besides that, the quality is good. So that's why it got a 2, but misses 3 more misrepresentation.

I love these sunglasses. They are stylish and great to protect eyes. I don't feel any different wearing and not wearing the glasses except the sun is not hurting my eyes any more.

These sunglasses came SO QUICK! I opted for USPS instead of recommended UPS, only b/c I trust them more... and I got them earlier than expected!
The sunglasses were almost everything I was expecting... the model changed a little bit in the last year, and was not aware of that til I got these.
Would definitely order from here again.

If you want performance with a splash of chickmagnet-ness, get these Oakleys. I checked all over the web and Backcountry.com had the best price and shipping was super fast!
