Said perfectly. Oakley's development was always athlete centered with consumers in focus. Now everything is influencer focused. I get it, send out 30 pairs of prototypes and get millions of dollars in targeted marketing for free. It's a bummer that a very small number of people who have a lifetime passion and commitment to the company get a shot at this new stuff (if they want it) because of all the hype and high prices.

Any ideas on when these are intended to drop?

I'll make you guys a deal: If you get a pair, you can keep the box and bag and I'll buy the glasses from you at the price you paid. Gets you a free box!

Looking to buy or trade for both matte red and matte navy blue safehouse radarlock frames.

A few rare ones:

2010 Tour of California Flak Jackets


Hot Pink Warden


Neon Green Warden


Purple & Fire Warden


And some Racing Jackets

Lots of gold clear radar lenses for the speed skaters too.

Correct and thus the small stretch icon on the goggle strap. This rule is also true in the summer Olympics.

Some new stuff:

Those JB's are an athlete custom- Taylor Phinney, Team Livestrong. He also has a white pair with a splatter jaw. SNAP!

The xl lens has 7mm's of more space between the nose bridge and the top of the frame.

To get specific (from front to back, starting on the left):

white w/ vented clear
red w/ hi yellow
snow camo version 1 w/ vented hi persimmon

Ok after seeing/hearing all of this I feel obligated to contribute. This is the first time I have unleashed all of these to you guys- enjoy.

Racing Jackets

Notice the name in the early design phase "Jigsaw"

It sounds like a good time was had by all. After reading through the tread updates it sounds like a lot went down, I'd be interested in hearing what the overall agenda was with oakley and what you guys did at the HQ- where did you tour, what did you see, learn, etc. Just curious.

My two cents- Get your hands on a ti clear or gold clear lens for those babies...

Black Iridium- not polarized.. making them even cooler in my book.

One more

Here they are....

I noticed something interesting on my radar path fire lenses, the "oakley" on the center of the lens is written in a different color....
Retina burn fire lens oakley is written in yellow
Atomic orange fire lens oakley is written in orange

Will there be MLB Radars also?
