Thanks. What about the "Polarized" on the lens. Suspect looking or legit for an early generation half jacket?

Alright guys, fake half jackets or not?

Rolling....

Might have just pushed the paint. I've slammed a trunk lid on some Flaks that were half in half out of my trunk, sending all pieces flying. They re-assembled just fine. I wouldn't worry about it.

How is the "nanomatter" better?

Yes, the red lens is a more recent version of the C Wire. The blue lens one is the first gen C Wire, back when Oakley was giving names to wires based on the shape of the lens, not pulling names out of their ****es randomly.

Wow, I'm getting old.

I was looking for VR28 polarized today. It's one of my favorite lenses for hard use. Iridium scratches too easily.

Excellent review. Those hinges are awesome. I'm tired of the flimsy spring hinges on wire models. Price is $130, which is double the price of other SI wire offerings, though there is only the Tightrope at the moment.

I have a set. He'll get taken care of.

Most of the Wires will fit your criteria, some of the X metals, and almost none of the Jackets. When I wear a suit, I usually pick some generation of the Square Wire, depending on how big my hair is that day.

Yes, there is always that confusion with unknowns. Oakley should name some frames, "no name" "I have no idea" or "Couldn't tell ya".

I had some XX in that exact colorway. It's Electric Blue, Sku 12-612

Unknown. The Vault has non-polarized lenses for twelve bucks.

About a grand.
