I picked up some Oakley Mercenary glasses in the sale before Christmas, but would like to purchase some clear lenses for them, that Oakley don’t supply.
Does anyone have experience of buying non-Oakley lenses for their frames?
Would be good to get a recommendation for a supplier - have seen some on eBay, but no idea how good they will be?
Thanks.
I bought some clear racing jacket copy lenses from Ebay last year, they were too thick for the frame. I can't remember the seller but they were in the uk
The best Oakley replacement lenses that I am aware of are from Linegear in Japan. They shop worldwide and are the only replacement lenses that I have used that are pretty much equal quality to the OEM lenses.
Revant and Fuse make reasonable quality ones.
bought Revant via amazon not had any issues

Revant Optics 2nd vote.
Have used them for yonks - before they rebranded to Revant.
I've used galaxylense on eBay. Decent quality clear, mirror and other lenses for my Radar EV. Ships from the US (Florida, I think) and no customs issues.
Thanks everyone - I’ll check all those options.
Yo used extreme eyewear for a set of replacement prescription clear lenses, sure they do non prescription lens are well
I’ve used Revant lenses too - so another vote for them. They are still excellent and I think at least the same quality as Oakleys original lenses.
I've bought a few sets from AliExpress before and they've all been fine.
Personally I’d avoid the standard offerings from Revant. Revant Elite and Fuse plus are both pretty decent but the quality is still some distance from OEM Oakley.
Linegear do a variety of options all of which are excellent.
I’d avoid other cheaper options.
Got some photochromic lenses for my Slivers from Galaxy optics. They dont work great but fit the frame well and quality wise are good, bloody cheap too!
I’d second Fuse Lenses, bought some clear replacements for some Smith frames I use for riding. Come in nice padded ‘bags’ and they were better quality than the original clear lens. Although doesn’t look like they list Mercenary in the Oakley models sadly.
