The "OK, Tell me 'Yes' or 'No'. Do I suit these?" Thread

I just got the Pitbulls myself. They are nice, however the fire iridium lens have a bit of a purple hint toward the center, and looks strange. They do make everything look more greenish which I like.
 
TiO2 XX
I think they're too wide, not enough wrap? These are my first metals, didn't quite know what to expect with them. Those nose bridge is loose, but I'm flexing them all the way out pretty much. They have size 15 temples in them, do they go smaller?

Edit:
Took the temples out and they fit a lot closer, just not much spring left in the frames and I'm still pushing the orbitals out to the max on the nose coupler

Look fine to me too. the hammer stems give the illusion of being too wide

You can cut the t-shocks smaller if need be. You're aware youre supposed to put them on like goggles right?

If you ever wanna let those go...

Yes, years of M Frame use has me doing that for most pairs. With the t-shocks out they slip right on from the front, but aren't snug at all. My head is too deep and doesn't match the curve of the stems, which could be hurting the fit.

It suits you well buddy.

I already have first dibs! But yeah! they fit you better without the temple shocks but what you should really be concerned with is the nose bridge because those will get worn out really fast if you are maxing it out everytime you wear it.

I'm going to head to the local Vault tomorrow-ish to compare to a new pair of Juliets and see what's what and hear the opinion of some employees who have hopefully seen a few in various states of wear and can weigh in on the subject.
