Ok I changed my vote, it’s never going to happen. Probably too extensive and Oakley wouldn’t want to do a re-do of x metals.

It really comes down to profit. Oakley produced these for years as a "brand marketing" move. With the number employees that had to touch each frame there is no way they made money on the glasses. That means if a company relaunched them they would have to charge a much higher ASP than what they went for before which would make the market much more of a niche. Then there is obviously the large capital needed to open the factories. It's sad but they will never be anything like them ever again. It would be nice if they just made new lenses and rubbers again...
Wow, that's a shame. Were the frames going to be made out of titanium?Actually there is a company that started making them that tried to get the forum to help him on a start up campaign, he said he didn’t use any Oakley patents but you could tell his nose bridge was copied from Oakley, he was going to charge 600+ a pair, but they never took off or got their quota. For value of making x-metals is just not in the market and I’ll doubt there ever will be again, I’m glad we we are a generation that had/have the opertunity to get them while they are still around.
