Tom Mainus Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 Anyone else having problems with their Rudy Project lenses cracking on the bridge. I can't seem to go 6 months without a crack developing on the lenses. And it is only on the racing red lenses. My clears are the original ones and they are fine. I am on my third set of the racing reds and I just noticed the otherday they are cracked again. Glasses are only 1-2 years old. I am not complaining about the product or anything like that. They have sent me new ones every time(minus the 15$ cost), I have sent them in. I am just curious if I am the only person having this problem.

Doggorloader Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 My Rudy's are 3 years old and the racing red lenses are still in perfect shape with not a scratch or crack. I'm on my 3rd set of dark lenses however cause I have a bad habit of putting them up on my ballcap and then running into low objects. I only use the red for shooting and sporting clays. I use the dark lenses for everything else including boating and golf. Not any beer with shooting. Beer with most everything else. I think it may have something to do with the beer.

shred Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 I snapped a set of Rudy frames trying to wrench out the racing-red lenses, (which they replaced anyway) but no other problems in several years of using them for shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimel Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 So Rudy needs to put a warning on the label that beer damages their glasses! Mine are a bit over 2 years old and going strong. I have one minor scratch on the red lenses from a crash and burn in the gravel during practice one day but other than that they are in perfect condition. I wonder if you have a flaw in your frame that is putting abnormal stress on the lenses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessej Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 Haven't had any problems with my Freeon. Beer or no beer, lol. Yea, maybe your frame is a little out of spec. It sounds like a strange thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Mainus Posted June 26, 2005 Author Share Posted June 26, 2005 The last time I sent the whole works back to them and they sent me new frames as well. Yet the lenses still cracked withthe new frames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcoliver Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Kerosenes about 3 years and Rydons about 2, all lenses still in good shape. But I'm waiting for the day that the anchor points in the kerosene lenses will finally snap off since I keep changing lense color more than I should. A bud already managed to break his off.

Vlad Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 Rydons for about 1 year. No damage so far, but I did scratch my clear lense in a way that confused me for a while. I couldnt tell how I managed it, until I noticed the putting my nose to the charging handle puts my glasses in contact with it as well. Oops.
