Frame: Crystal Red
Lens: +Red
Breathing new life into an almost double-decade old product, Oakley resurrects the classic Crystal Red colorway for the New M Frame. The translucent, yet colorful frame brings back nostalgic feelings from its Mumbo predecessor, yet embodies the newer, sleeker style of the New M Frame. Paired with +Red Iridium, these glasses are almost impossible to beat! About the only way Oakley could have topped this effort would have been to ship these in a clear acrylic box with the updated Oakley stretch logo.

Frame: Matte black
Lens: Gray
Nice frame for smaller faces, and the smaller hybrid s lens fits my face nicely and I have a narrow face. I have played golf with them, and they performed beautifully. The only problem that I have is that the etched "oakley" on the lens gets in the field of view sometimes, but other than that they are one of my favorite Oakleys.
Frame: White Camo
Lens: Ice Iridium
Sweet frame color! It's not listed here but maybe should be? The M Frame has a unique feature - it can vary the height of the frame between lens styles, which is something the Radar gives up with the nosepiece attachment design. The Hybrid S is the smallest and shortest of the M frame lenses, and it fits me perfectly! Usually I wore Sweep, but the frame would hit my eyebrows. With the shorter hybrid S, the frame sits right where it should. The M frame now has a new usefulness to me, and my radars have been sitting on the shelf unused.
Frame:M Frame Metallic Red
Lens:Hybrid S + Red Iridium
A classic pair of shades in a sharp combination. The frames are really great, somewhere between Half Jackets and Radar (real sports glasses), and the lens is a more good looking version of the old Grey tint. Good for clear weather and mixed conditions.
Frame: Metallic Blue (Lance Armstrong)
Lens: G30 Vented
OK, so this review is going be very emotionally biased and the rating isn't really based on anything objective.
Lance Armstrong is my idol. I've lost several family members to cancer so his story and his work to fight this ravaging disease make him god-like in my eyes.
I don't wear these glasses. These are strictly a collector's item for me. I'm still trying to track down the older Pro version with the FMJ/Ice color combo (for a reasonable, yet premium price that is).
In general, the M-Frame really doesn't suit me. I love the style and would love to be able to use it for shooting and cycling (not the Signature Edition, of course). Unfortunately, they just don't have enough flex for me to wear without getting a headache. I've thought about getting another pair and then trying to adjust them with a hair dryer or heat gun. But considering that the shield lens is probably part of the structure and likely to bend the frame back in again, I didn't want to chance shelling out extra cash for an experiment.
