Ya gotta love three-ways. Combining their talents, Oakley and Original Fake teamed up with Lance Armstrong to produce an extremely limited run of Frogskins in honor of the sunglasses 4 year anniversary. The shades feature a polished black frame consisting of black iridium lenses. The obvious eye-catcher on the Frogskins, and what’s really gonna make them a collectors item is the repeating, signature X graphics on the inner arms which are the marks of world renowned artist KAWS.
According to reports the sunglasses will become available this coming Saturday, May 29th, 2010, exclusively through the Original Fake store in Japan. So unless you live on the otherside of the globe or have a close contact in Japan, good luck.

OriginalFake Chomper Bucket Hats
January 15, 2010
As part of their January 2010 releases OriginalFake has taken their signature “Chomper” logo and included it on a few new accessories. Among some of the items are these OriginalFake Chomper Bucket Hats. The hat is available in your choice of either a navy blue base with blue/white Chomper graphics or a black base with red/white Chomper graphics. I’m personally not a big fan of bucket hats, or Gillian hats as i refer to them, but seeing as how these feature the OriginalFake chomper logo we’re sure retailers such as L’Intrus won’t be able to keep these on the shelves for all to long.
