Just Made My First Non X-metal Purchase In 10+ Years.

So I am going to a camping music festival at the end of September, and I did not want to take any of my x-metal with me. I decided to purchase my first pair of non-x's in over 10 years. I told myself I was going to be done with Oakley purchases for awhile, but it only lasted a couple months haha. I went with the IH Radar Path and got the photochromatic replacement lense as well. Seeing as I will be outside during all lighting conditions I thought it might be useful. I have heard they aren't very dark but didn't see many threads on here about them. Do you think they will be decent to wear considering the varying lighting conditions?

I like the photochromatic lenses, but I'm a guy who prefers to not have lenses darker than 20% permittivity. Congrats on O-matter purchase. Sometimes the conspicuous consumption nature of wearing X-metals is not always desired, and a good plastic frame is better for the situation.

Hey thanks for the input. I get the SI discount so I went with the IH frames and photochromatic lens due to the nice price. I definitely think they will be less conspicuous, and I won't be as upset if they get lost/broke/stolen (though I clearly still wouldn't be happy about it).
