Well thanks for the responses!

I went to my local Oakley retailer yesterday and pick them up. After opening them up and having them fitted on my face for a few moments I notice that the unobtaniumIt STILL doesn’t fit the arch of my nose properly. I can still see a slight bit of light coming through under it but even more so irritating is seeing a sideways line in between my eyes which defeats the purpose of the lens style/obstructing my field of view. Now I know they may get better with time as they break-in a bit, & also your body heat will soften it more and allow it to flex and maybe then would seat correctly around my nose.

I had to go back into the Oakley store today to look at the ones on display and also all other product stock in the boxes to see if I had gotten a product miss-happ since to me it seemed that it is the same exact nose piece and Unobtanium from my Stride cut lens that I have already... turns out it is, even the rep in the store stated that it was and as the whole evzero line uses the exact same nose piece. Even on the older style ‘Ascend’ in store was the same exact piece, which on Oakley.com it does not appear to be this way...

Another thing - the cut on these ‘Blades’ I picked up seem to be cut ever so slightly different than what’s advertised on their website. I really liked the idea of the lens coming inward slightly from the nose piece compared to my stride lens since the stride doesn’t give me the coverage I’d desire down the lower portion on my nose as the blades helps better with this...; though it doesn’t hug around my nose as tight as I WANTED it to, as ADVERTISED. Will help with ventilation some being cut further apart... but still not what is advertised and I am quite pissed-off. I’ll attach a few photos for viewing...

If oakley wants all the more sales... then MAYBE they should do what they advertise. It just really irks me to say that I am not 100% satisfied.
