It depends what you're going to do with it. If you're driving with it, you're going to be very upset because the Transitions lenses respond to UV light and your windshield blocks that so they will not darken. If you're going to be doing outdoor sports and you're looking for an all day lens that...
I generally avoid acetate frames because of how rigid and uncomfortable they can be, but these look really exciting if they do them in good colorways. Hopefully they avoid the boring colorways that the Jupiter LX came in and do something more wild.
They are supposedly adding quite a few frames in both Matte Black w/ Fire and Matte Black w/ Ice coming very soon. I've seen both the Holbrooks and Frogskins being added in these colors.
Also, Oakley stores can indeed check the inventory of other stores very easily. If an associate or a manager tells you otherwise, they may just not be aware of the option in their system.
Really not that excited although the Blue Woodgrain Garage Rock sunglasses sounds like a neat colorway. Now if only it didn't come with a non-iridium lens...
That looks like the Transitions logo. Are you sure that they're Gold Iridium? I don't believe that that's a colorway offered for Half Jacket 2.0 right now. There is a Black w/ Dark Grey History Text w/ G40 Transitions though and that looks like what you have.
