For sale is a brand new pair of Oakley Hijinx sunglasses in Brown Smoke with Dark Bronze lenses. These glasses are in the box with the paperwork and cloth bag and everything that comes with them. Its a great set of sunglasses at a great price.
These are a 'grab bag' edition of the Hijinx, meaning the frame shape is the same, you just get a cool color not offered in the normal Hijinx and the Oakley logo is a cool blue cammo. More pictures at the bottom of the description. US shipment only.



HIJINX Sunglasses as described on http://www.oakley.com/pd/4811/17361

Take all the music, art and life that inspires athletes to step up and go beyond. Shape it with an edge of attitude but keep the look clean and uncomplicated, then give it the best technology ever to carve light rays. That’s how we made HIJINX sunglasses, an O MATTER® frame decked with dual cam hinges, true metal icons and HIGH DEFINITION OPTICS® (HDO®). Eye-chafing UV can’t get through our PLUTONITE® lenses, and the side contours use patented XYZ OPTICS® for widescreen clarity. If you need to add prescription lenses, no worries.

Each lens/frame combo is matched with metal icons in a unique finish, and two Limited Editions come with the look of slotted icons. See how our Bruce Irons Signature Edition salutes a true original. For the best glare-blocking lenses in the industry, check out the polarized editions of HIJINX.

2009 Burton SLX Boots sz. 11

Burton SLX, Men’s Size 11 Boot, 2009 Black – like New

Ebay Item number: 150405799158
Ebay listing: http://cgi.ebay.com/Burton-SLX-2009-Snowboard-Boot-size-11-Mens_W0QQitemZ150405799158QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Snowboard_Boots?hash=item2304e25cf6























PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION!!!
These amazing boots are PRETTY MUCH brand new and will ship in the original box. They have been used for a ½ day – that’s it! So essentially, yes, they are as good a brand new and in the box – technically they have been put on, worn around the house and ridden for a ½ day. The story there is that I got these for an amazing deal ($350) on an online store just before Christmas - they normally retail for $500. Unfortunately for me, unexpected expenses came up and I do have old boots, so I need to sell these and try again for a new pair next year. I would have returned to the store had I not ridden them for a ½ day.
Let me say though – I have been snowboarding for 20 years and have never seen such well engineered and beautifully crafted boots. It pains me to get rid of them. They fit like a glove and feel amazing. I am an 11 shoe and found these to fit true to size, a little snug but the shop told me they will ‘pack out’ after a few times on the hill and that I’d be happier with an 11 than an 11.5. Again, this pair is a size 11 – I have looked far and wide and can almost guarantee that this will be the most screaming deal you can get on these amazing boots…my loss, your gain I guess.
They are a ‘Platinum Pick’ in the SNOWBOARD magazine gear guide on boots. The November 2009 issue states that the SLX should be “considered like a Ferrari – sleek, sexy and precise’.

Here is what Burton says about the 2009 SLX –

Bringing once-in-a-lifetime turns to every run.
The perfect fusion of comfort, art, technology, and speed, the SLX™ offers riders the purest transmission of human power to forward motion. Both anatomically precise and efficient, the SLX seamlessly blends the most advanced inner-workings with a silhouette that is as light as it is limber, and as comfortable as it is confident. Prepare to heighten your senses, propel yourself skyward, and read the mountain with a whole new set of eyes.
