Do any current Oakley cases fit X-Metals?

My apologies if this has been addressed a bunch of times in the past.

Now that I have more xmetals than I do cases I was looking at buying another one.

Oakley site lists a soft vault, metal vault and carbon fibre case. Soft vault looks like it comes in two different styles.

All 3 can be seen here

Will my Juliets and XX fit in these?

Of course even if they do fit maybe I should buy an old school xmetal vault on here or eBay. Thoughts?
 
The only vault they currently sell that fits x metals are the flak hollowed out soft vault sand the strong box. Below are the following that fit the majority of the x metals. You can view pictures on o-review.com:

-X metal soft vault
-X Metal vault (it has an X on top of the lid). Watch out with these people tend to mislabel theses and if you don’t pay attention you’ll end up with an o matter or wire vault. Tends to happen mostly on eBay.
-flak jacket soft vault. ( it looks like a tall clam shell but it’s hollowed out
-array vault (it’s pretty big and has a spot for your frame and 3 extra lenses. It was meant for sport frames and the tombstones.)
- cross range vault ( its half the size of a array vault but longer than a soft vault, you can fit one frame and an extra set of lenses)
-strong box ( pretty big and depending on variation you can fit multiple frames, with a price like that I would invest in a pelican case for a quarter of the price.

I think the Flak Jacket soft vault is what I tested my juliets on.

It’s the most common and easily accessible for x metals. I usually use those for my Juliet’s and R2’s.

I should really take some pictures. I have a ton of vaults that I rarely use. @cacatman sounds like you have another thread with your name on it. ;)

I have another of these I pulled the plastic formed part out of. Does an XX/XS fit? Yes. Would I use this? No. Why? I have Xmetal soft vaults. OK? But, if you needed to, would you? I suppose.
 
XX fits into Flak Jacket Soft vault although there's a bit of extra room where a pair of spare Flak lenses are supposed to be stored.
 
Not sure if these are promoted as cases for x-metal but they do not fit juliets. I'd get a nice large square x-metal box and buy new foam if the foam in the one you find is bad.
