Yes I have been searching high and low for a picture of these. I had some as a kid and they were great. I want to show my kids what they were. If anybody has a pic of them please post it.

I have 2 pairs at home. One pair never worn. I still wear the old pair to the beach. Looking to sell the other pair, but no one want to pay what i want for them. I even still have the bax they came in.
