The thing with Oakley Blades, much like mirror-lensed glasses, black trenchcoats, fingerless black leather gloves, etc. is that they are often worn by people under the delusion that anyone who wears them automatically looks cool.

Like 'An Uninsured Motorist', who probably ignores his greasy undershirt, mustache, hairstyle, (probable) potbelly and the fact that he's driving around in (probably) a banged up TransAm with an ugly custom paintjob working against the image he wishes to project with his awesome shades.

I like how the uninsured motorist is depicted wearing Oakley Blades from ca. 1989.

Who knew you could still buy them directly from Oakley?  I thought they'd be strictly eBay auction items by now.

I remember thinking those were insanely cool when I was 9. I remember they even used to sell the nose, lenses, and ear-pieces separately so that you could mix and match colors.

I owned a pair of those (Black frames, red-gold-green-blue reflective coating) for a period in the 90s.  I lost them when I got ditched at a music festival by someone and had left them in their back seat.

In the end it probably worked out best all around, though, 'cause in actual fact I looked like a giant dork in them but would have never admitted it to myself.

I also at one point wore Jams.  

Look, I'm not proud of everything in my past.

Did you wear overalls with one strap down? Or anything by Stussy?

These would also make an excellent holiday gift item

There are lots of things one can not be proud of.

Like dancing to Another Bad Creation's Coolin' at the Playground, Y'know! as it issues from the speakers of somebody's pink boombox, at a outdoor basketball court.

And wearing cheap, reflective shades while doing so.

 That is something we do not need. As if low-braus don't already diss Philipe gear enough because of his shape. Boo to that.

I never noticed it before now.

I guess I'm a slow-brau.

Everyone in this comic is wearing sunglasses.

I actually think it's a fertility dance.

Either way, that catcher is totally not happy about what is happening.

Also, I spent an inordinate amount of time examining that pic at my desk.  At work.  At the children's theatre.
