Posted in the other thread saying I had to have them, now I do. Each to their own, but I find this is one of the few compelling colorways as of late.

Swapped in the neon orange stems. I understand the original black ones were to contribute to the overall "fade" look, but purple (dark purple, at that) to black doesn't do much in my eyes

Icon has a cool prismatic/jewel effect that I couldn't show due to lighting.

I'm almost certain Ruby Prizm could end up as the only Ruby. I wouldn't be surprised if Fire got axed as well because this does have a bit of an amber base that seems more tuned for functional contrast. In general you kinda feel like what you're seeing through matches the aesthetic... If that makes sense.

Just found this thread and wow, I didn't like the Pop Fade before I saw yours but it's really a big difference with the orange stems!

Question: where did you get the orange stems? Are they from a custom built pair?

You can buy them at the oakley vault store. I bought several different colors.
