They were going for queer and Bert just wasn’t enough to represent those Lux, in their infinite wisdom, decided that after almost 30 years, the zero line needed a set of monkey bars

These are now Good Medal worthy. Congrats to Canada you did it Andre De Grasse.

It's like a reinvention of the Kato in the form of an excessive styling exercise.
Really each to their own. I find it silly but this is also what some people were asking for.
People have wanted Oakley do to more "radical" designs, and they gave no mind to how it can be pointlessly so. And here it is for better or worse.
I will say, though, I've enjoyed the Kato X. The predictable con of being more vulnerable to scratches is there, but it's (at least for me) the first rimless design that actually doesn't feel delicate. Only gripe is being near $300 USD. I get that might be warranted to cover whatever had to be implemented in production, but I don't feel like a consumer truly gets their worthwhile.
Like this, and $139.99, and I'd give'em a try... but I know that's not gonna happen. This frame is gonna cost 1400$ in Japan so it looks like I’m definitely not buying it. It’s a shame.

Holy moly! That’s insane. It is just made of plastic right?
Golden plastic! It comes with a book and a stand of Tokyo and box. Limited to 500 pieces.Similar threads
