I have jet black a frames with persimmon lens. I'd like around 70 but I'm open to offers. They are new, but don't come with the box. Just the goggles and the clothe bag. Thanks!

I currently have 2 different pairs of Oakley A-Frames: one pair with Persimmon lenses and one pair with Black Iridium lenses and the ones in this thread's included picture above is neither.

Are you sure it's not just a bad photo? The colored background really seems to be throwing off the lens tint

I don't know what lenses they are but if you bought em' from Freeskier19, I'm pretty sure that I'm correct about them not being Persimmon.
See I also bought some A-Frames from Freeskier19 that he had advertised as having persimmon lenses about a month or 2 ago--and he was selling multiple pairs that were all the same.
When they arrived I was disappointed to discover that they were not Persimmon lenses as I already had a pair of Oakley A-Frames with (authentic) Persimmon lenses to compare them to.
I contacted him about the discrepancy and told him that I would need to return them for refund.
He graciously apologized for the mix-up stating that he truly believed them to be Persimmon lenses and agreed to refund my money.
You must've bought your A-Frames from Freeskier19 before he knew the truth...
I just thought I'd chime in to save both the buyer and the seller from the troubles that Freeskier19 and I had...
I actually took a pic of my Persimmon lenses and the ones that Freeskier19 had sent me in the same frame for Freeskier19 to compare and I just deleted it the other day...
That's how it went down...

Like I said, I don't know which lenses they ARE but I do know with utmost certainty that they ARE NOT Persimmon lenses if they're the same lenses that Freeskier19 sent me.
Sorry.
Ask him, I'm sure he'll confirm my story...

I'm not saying that they're not REAL/AUTHENTIC Oakley A-Frames--only that those lenses are not PERSIMMON--that's all--it's why I returned the ones I bought from him--because they were advertised as Persimmon lenses and, of course, I was expecting Persimmon lenses--since they were not Persimmon lenses--I did not want them.

It was actually just dumb luck that I happened to:
click on this thread,
see the pic of the goggles,
and see Freeskier19's post about them.
I then deduced that you must've bought them from him and decided to post...

All you gotta do is take em' in to a shop for direct comparison with some brand-new-still-in/with-the-box Oakley A-Frames and figure out which lenses they ACTUALLY are.
Not the end of the world, not too difficult, and certainly not an impossible situation...

OK, the Persimmons are above and the Black Iridiums are below.
The first pic is without the flash and you can see the reflective, mirror-like Iridium coating.
The second pic is with flash.

They're definitely NOT Black Iridium, trust me, I had em' right next to my Black Iridiums and they are MUCH darker and do not have any mirror-like surface (the Iridium coating).

Ask Freeskier19 and he'll tell you all that I stated in this thread is true.

Incorrect sir (though you seem to keep wishing on this each time a new possibility on the lens type comes up). Persimmon lenses and the VR-28s tend to retail at the same price. For example: http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Oakley-A-Frame-Goggle/OAK1816M.html?CMP_ID=SH_FRO001&CMP_SKU=OAK1816&mv_pc=r126 The iridium is when the price starts to go up.
