[KyleTheSid]

Agree with you about the Barras Montefrio's! I to am trying to find a pair myself!

Check out Sunglassshop.com it's a UK website they have a Barras Montefrio

Well said young sir.
And the first LOL I've had from the boards for a while.

Split Jackets always get overshadowed by it's larger counterpart, the Jawbone.

Very true...i love the infinite hero split jackets.

 

[Johnny Hundreds]

are we talking about artist series? or any pair in particular? I have a few i'd like to throw in here...

 

[Deleted member 24]

I think either a frame or specific pair.

I would have to agree...the IH Split Jacket's are awesome!!

I agree with jk-27 that the marine fades don't get love. I wore mine today and i can't figure out why people don't like them. The whole fade series is underrated IMO..not talking about the BLENDS because it was more of a "blend" than a fade but look at how unique that was and no one pays attention. They're the only frogskins i really want to go after!

In terms of here on OF, it's quite clear that most Wires are completely under-rated. I think most of us have at least one pair (usually for formal occasions) knocking about, but no-one really talks about them. But think about it, there'd be uproar if Oakley dropped the Wires range.

Aside from that, my own personal under-rated frame choice though would go to the Conduct Squared.
Super-lightweight, and like a natural casual progression from a Zero, but I'm fairly certain that I'm the only person in the world who bought them. Haha.

Fast Jackets, this pair is freakin awesome IMO but I just dont see alot of people picking them up, they are not a limited edition or anything just a really comfortable pair to wear and they look great!

i agree with ya. i have 3 pairs of fast jackets and i love them!

I have to agree..Wires are underrated at least compared to many others, glass like the OO series are awesome (especially OOE), various examples of various models, various early releases, the Why 2 with red earsocks, the O5.
Also agree on conduct squared, perhaps the most comfortable glass ive ever used, only 4 pairs, short time availability, next to no uk availability, superb coverage, super light, fantastic shape & size lens, like a zero/antix hybrid.
stretchline pieces.
tangent (the detail and design of the iron wood pair is incredible)
some acetate items eg violet riddle
