What work have you done for me? I gave you the URL for Wiley-X

I never said you were a salesman. You clearly do not have the people skills to be a salesman. I asked a simple question that was relevant to this thread. I wasn't even aware the foam could be changed out. It was more or less a question of are these an item sold on their website or do I have to call a wiley-x salesman and hope he isn't riding the same size horse as you.

After looking on their website I only see one available "removable ultra foam gasket".

Please continue policing the sub-forums for non-pertinent information.

They look nice but I have to wear prescription glass's or I couldn't see where I was going. I have to go today to get fitted up for a new pair of prescription sunglasses. I was in there the other day getting fitted for prescription work safety glasses and they had these bad *** wrap around's in there that now come in sunglasses that you can get with a prescription. I hate dumping 4 or 500 bucks on glasses but I have to have them. Lat year something strange started happening. My glasses really didn't fit that well and the air over my eyes made them water worse than they ever did in the past only now my own tears burned my eyes so bad I would have to pull over and dry them. My eye doctor found out what was wrong and gave me a way to stop that, I hope it works!!! A new pair of glasses will help too......(edit) P.S., yes I went and looked on my own at their website and I see one can get these in prescription glasses.

I suspect user abuse in this case.

No not really, my glasses take more abuse when riding my motorcycle, honestly. Contrary to what you think, it's usually just hot and sunny in Afghanistan, and I always kept them in the case and used only the included cleaning cloth on them. The lenses get scratched very easily. For a company that has a contract with the US military, they need to make a better product. You're god damn right I'm pissed at them, seeing as how none of the Oakleys I've ever owned have had this problem. Glasses aren't cheap at nearly $100 a pop. And for the record, if you've never been to the Middle East, you won't ever know.

That's the funniest thing I've ever heard. Especially about Iraq.

Both my Wiley x are prescription, I had the glasses place deal with the foam gasket replacement, I would suggest just calling the company to get the scoop and the diff gasket.
