    I've worn Oakley's since the 90s and they're great glasses . I'm stoked that awesome models are coming out and customizing them are more affordable 👍😎🤘

    Thank you for posting this. I was struggling with getting the earsock back onto my Oakley Juliet... it took 10 minutes dry compared to 10 seconds with a little soap and water.

    This video is 8yrs old and still helped me out. I wasn't sure if the arm was held in by a pin or what. Learned I just need to "break" them out.

    Can the arms on the quarter jackets be removed this way? Thanks.

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  5 лет назад

      The Quarter Jacket arms are not meant to be removed but they can be snapped into and out of place if need be. If you need more help, contact one of our certified opticians here: www.sportrx.com/contact

    • @J.Co89
      @J.Co89 5 лет назад +1

      Thanks..just wonder if it's worth running the risk of breaking them.

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  5 лет назад

      In our opinion it is not. Especially if you have had the frame for a while.

    This saved me so much time and pain lol. I have 2 pairs of these and the first I muscled on there and I was like there’s got to be a better way… if only I used my noggin and checked yt first my hands wouldn’t be all cramped up lol.

    After I removed the ear stems and cleaned all the gunk off them (there was a lot and it was disgusting) I just dipped the stems right into a bottle of alcohol and dripped a bit down each ear sock and they slid on with zero effort. We'll see if it affects the plastic, but I seriously doubt it will...

    Can you change the ear socks on radars??

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  9 лет назад

      Braydon Goodnough Yes,
      The process is very similar. You don’t have to take the temples off since there is only on section of Unobtainium so it should be even easier. You can but the extra socks from Oakley directly.

    KY jelly works better than soap and water and is more water soluble. astroglide works well. The stuff that warms when you blow on it.

  • @johngibson1072
    @johngibson1072 7 лет назад

    Not good. There is a correct way to remove sides/arms from these glasses. The method demonstrated here is not correct.

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  7 лет назад

      We love feedback! What method would be correct?

    • @johngibson1072
      @johngibson1072 7 лет назад

      A more correct method to remove arms is:
      - hold the front piece [the part that holds the lenses] near the joint
      - grasp the arm near the joint
      - twist the arm 'inward' so that the top of the arm is pulled out of the joint

    • @sportrxeyewear
      @sportrxeyewear  7 лет назад

      That certainly makes sense! There is even a little indentation near the hinge 'seat' to make that motion easier. Thank you for your feedback and for sharing that method!
