The quote comes with frame? What is index you are asking?

Just the lenses itself, no frame.
1.67 -> $350

You mentioned earlier $270 to get a 1.67 eyezen. If it's the real thing then go for it. Very good discount already.

I have been told that Lindberg makes their frames in Philippines and there are EU taxes levied on importing such goods.

They only quote me a price range saying eyezen lenses are from $140+ onwards to $270+, but never say the index. If really $270, I confirm do it also. But i think the standard price for 1.67 should be @ $350.

Hi

Does anyone have any experience in using a frame with straight temples instead of the usual curve down? Is it secure enough?

I see this style like getting very popular.

Isn't that what Oakley frames had been doing all along?

In my opinion. Its just as secure but if sweaty may lose some grip

Very common what.. even those frames with not straight temple u need to bend such that it curves yr skull... to me not much different but straight one is more comfortable..

Thanks!
Been awhile since I last shopped for new frames.
I've tried straight temples design frames and yes it is comfortable but was paranoid about the specs sliding out due to no hook curve down the back of the ear.
