Sorry beags, this is a moving house not got the time to sell it, you get a bargain situation. If someone in Manchester polo wants to do you a solid, I can sort that out. Otherwise it's getting donated locally.

Think it's a couple of years warranty period rather than lifetime now. I'm an idiot in the way I broke them and for misplacing proof of purchase. TBF they offered a good chunk off some new ones, but I wasn't exactly bathing in cash at the time so took a chance on the cheaper option.

Yeah, I agree.
I've never being trying to claim foakley = oakley lens, if anything I originally stated foakley != oakley. I think you'd have to be pretty foolish to believe 5 lenses for £12 are the same quality as 1 or 2 for £120. They are not whole different league or unusable though. Whatever your justification for buying them, you get functional cheap sunglasses.

Broke official frames, bought the foakleys to use with the official lenses.
Also polycarbonate blocks UV-A and -B.

Again IMO, anecdotal, n=2, etc... being the major point. Had 2 real vs 2 fake. I know which I won't be buying ever again.

Gotta call bullshit on the 'whole different league', at least in the case of oakley vs foakley (IMO, anecdotal, n=2, etc...). There are differences in the lenses (thickness and scratch resistance being the most notable, minor optical differences if you're really looking), but they are no worse than any other £10-15 pair of sunglasses and definitely not ~10 times worse, the price of oakleys implies.

It was this store: http://www.aliexpress.com/store/1927165
But I don't see them listed any more, they were up as something like "2016 New RD EV Pitch Polarized Cycling Glasses 5 Lens".This video (it's in Russian, but about the 15 min mark) suggests official lenses fit in fake jawbreaker frames too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHFeCtyzsww
Edit: or in English on the video on here http://www.bikebiz.com/news/read/they-re-just-bits-of-plastic-why-cyclists-buy-fake-oakleys/019427
Probably won't be back in time for unicorn. But will swing by the beginners polo for at least a beer. Might even see if my old polo bike functions...
