Really cool and detailed write up! Wish these weren't just SI. Great photo comparison and details on the weight.

IMHO, from those pictures, they look very cheaply made (though that may just be the result of cutting weight).
Can you point out something that caught your eye? I didn't think that at all.IMHO, from those pictures, they look very cheaply made (though that may just be the result of cutting weight). How do the hinges feel? They look relatively crude
Think he just means that they don't look as fancy when compared to for instance, a radar EV or jawbreakerCan you point out something that caught your eye? I didn't think that at all.
on the 4th and 5th pictures, the casting marks are highly visible and look kinda sloppy.Can you point out something that caught your eye? I didn't think that at all.
So after reading @Rustpot's review on the Alpha, I decided I had to get me a pair.
My first SI order showed up while I was at work yesterday and when I got home late last night this was one of the items I had waiting for me.

All the frame colors seem sort of blah to me, so I got white thinking it would be the best canvas for @dr.chop to work with.
The white frame is only available with the Jade Iridium Prizm lens (of which I really wasn't too fond at the time of purchase).
In person it is much less "green" than it looks online and I like it a lot more than I thought I would.
The red tint that you are immersed in once you get them on took a little while to get used to.
It makes everything so bright.
But yet it doesn't make me squint... kind of weird actually.
I don't really know how to describe it.
I got used to it in short time and it is quickly becoming one of my favorite lens to look through.
As far as the frame goes, @Rustpot is right in that they feel light on the face and are not tight.
I can only feel a very slight pressure on my nose and notice nothing on the sides of my head.
All in all I like these sunglasses very much.
I'm planning on getting both a Terrain Tan and a Matte Black frame in the very near future and I'll probably get all the lens options as well.
