Question about the OHMSS Ski Goggles

Hi all,
I did a search on here and via Google but I couldn't find anything about Lazenby's OHMSS ski goggles. Top image is from bondsuits.com.

OHMSSSki-1024x555.jpg

Has anyone positively ID'd the maker? I came across this vintage pair from Paraski and they look like the right ones from many of the photos:

But there's also this photo. Almost everything about the goggles looks the same except in this photo they seem to have a squarer lens. Just the normal flex of the goggle frame?

Thanks!

    Yours have too much of a round lens. The ones used on screen had a slightly ovoid shape. The second variation, as you say, did have squarer lenses. C0ck-up in continuity.

    I think that's just the angle the goggles are lying at. They're folding in at the bridge. Here's another photo with the yellow lens in that is more accurate (sorry, probably posted this photo instead of the one I used):

    And a photo of the seller wearing them

    The vents match up and they even have the same checkerboard pattern strap.

    Thanks for the info on the square lenses! Glad to know I wasn't seeing things!

    Yeah, that’s a better angle. They looked perfectly round in the first pic.

    What an amazing shop and what a brave business idea!

    We have soent our honeymoon in Carbondale as we could not afford accomodation in Aspen.
    The daily drive up to the ski resorts was a perk and not a burden - such great memories and such great people in Carbondale!
