Fans of Oakley's Frogskins are going to spill green beer all over themselves when they hear about the new Oakley St. Patrick's Day Frogskins. Oakely's latest Frogskins are all about celebrating the luck of the Irish and the joyous holiday of St. Patrick's Day.
The Oakley St. Patrick's Day Frogskins are slathered in green and feature gold-tinted lenses--an interesting combination to say the least. These glasses also give a subtle nod to St. Patrick's Day with the date of the holiday (3.17) on the glasses' left arm. Collectors will be disappointed to hear that these glasses will not be available to the general public. Instead they will be produced in low numbers and given to people as gifts from Oakley. Better start rubbing elbows now.
