PhreeZone 14 #2 May 13, 2008 Buy some of the other brands out there. I am disapointed in my Gatorz. The rubber ear pads have became unglued twice now and they only offer to keep shipping me replacements that the glue won't last on either.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike Give the folks at Liquid Eyewear a call and let them know you are a skydiver and they will give you a hook up.

eman 0 #5 May 14, 2008 I agree....Gatorz suck ! The optics are poor. Too much money for cool frames. MUCH nicer glasses out there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just bought a pair and they say Made in USA... Is this really not the case? The older ones do have USA stamped on the inside of the arm and can still be found new on shelves. According to the former owner, Gatorz has since outsourced to China. If you compare an old pair(pre sale) to a new pair(post sale), there is a noticeable difference not only in the aluminum frame but in the optical quality of the lenses, which is pretty poor. The new designs by Liquid have a higher quality of Aluminum used in the frame and offers normal,polarized and transitional lenses. All of which have an ANSI rating, are guaranteed for life and are 100% made and assembled in the USA( Yuma, Arizona to be exact)."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyD 0 #9 May 14, 2008 Thanks for that info. Oakley just sold as well. I would not be at all surprised to see the quality of Oakleys going the same way as Gatorz. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
