MARS X Metal Crater/Black Iridium (04-105)

MARS X Metal Crater/Black Iridium (04-105)

A six-ton generator cranks the 425,000 watts that are devoured by X METAL® and five-axis machining maintains 0.0005" precision. Envisioned by the styling eye of Oakley Board Member Michael Jordan, the second generation of X METAL® is a sculptural mechanical frame, logically structured around a new circular lens design. MARS® is rendered in three configurations, including wrapped leather.

Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Optimal clarity, uniqueness

After 10 years I still adore these glasses. I've replaced the lenses twice now and have recently purchased another pair for use with an alternate colored lens. Super durable frame paired with comfort. These are the only glasses I wear, period.I would definitely by a gen 2 if ever that were to occur...

Pros: Comfortable, Durable
Cons: small coverage

We are here talking about a strange pair of sunglasses.
People looking at them proves it, they have a particular/singular design.
Actually, they are the strangest design of the whole X-metal line-up but also the most comfortable in my opinion.
Black Iridium on X-metal frame is a bit classic, but the crater "option" is a nice addition.

Their fit is awesome on my quite big head (with the templeshocks size 15). I use them daily and am highly satisfied with them.

The only negative point I could find is the small coverage which gives a little ghost effect (reflection inside the lens when worn).

I hope to see them in a re-edition like it was done for the frogskin's or Razor blade, even if the Mars did not have the same impact.
