Maker: Oakley [ USA ]
Year: 2004 - 2005 [ Gen 5 ]
Condition Report: Great vintage condition. Frames show limited wear. New aftermarket rubber components. Lenses in excellent condition, high quality Linegear replacement in a different colour to serial number.
.
By the mid-1990s Oakley had cemented itself as a leader in innovative eyewear, but founder Jim Jannard wanted something that would set the brand apart entirely.
This ambition gave rise to X-Metal, a titanium alloy that became the foundation of Oakley’s most legendary frames.
The X-Metal line debuted in 1997. First with the Romeo, and later with the Mars and Juliet
Described by Oakley as “an evolutionary application of a new metallurgical process and a breakthrough in structural physics.” Built to withstand extreme stress, even the weight of a car.
The X-Metal collection remains the clearest expression of Oakley’s ethos, no other sunglasses carry the same history, innovation, or cult following.
Microfibre pouch included.
