Keep An Eye Out Tomorrow...

...It's Finally Happening!

Nothing positive, but two things not featured that all other ballistic eye-wear within the Si line have is either a full frame or a 3rd attachment point on the lens (Mframes). The lack of full frame and the "quick detach" ear stem features don't reaffirm it would meet a ballistic rating unless they have solely developed a new lens (thickness, etc) specifically to meet the impact criteria for such a rating.

I will be presently surprised if they are and if they are not I will not be disappointed. It will be just one less "plus" for buying these first over a Jawbreaker, fit and availability aside of course. They will be added to the collection at some point.

The center clip on M Frames is to conform with a military/DOD requirement for the lenses to not come free of the frame under impact. Since the M Frames are just friction fit they can pop out pretty easily with a hit.

I don't know if the Tombstone will be top shelf ballistic, but it'll still likely be Z87 based on the lens material. But it's true we haven't seen a rimless ballistic. The Crosshair was made a little thicker to keep the frame from distorting, the M Frames were given the clip and a bit thicker lens, Det Cord is just a beefy design. Nothing else has been part of the "Ballistic" line, but Flaks, Half Jackets, and others have been used for safety glasses for a while.

I want that ****ing uranium. Right now. (and thanks for posting that).

Uranium (thank god it's matte!!) and the black/black polarized. The rest can go away.

The new Navy color is terrible, especially when they put lighter blue accents on it.

The grey smoke might be worth checking out.

Is this considered the Uranium? If so I am in for this and the Atomic Orange if anything to go with my Retina Burn and Atomic Orange Radars. Polished white with Prism road and a spare chrome iridium lens and I think I'll be good, provided they fit me.

Pretty sure that's uranium. If mean if you google search the element it takes on that color.

Yep
