I'll check. Believe I just got a generic box as this from from a rep (before the price drop), but the labeling should be all the same.
That's cool. Knowing Oakley's inconsistency at times, it may be that they even produced two different labels, one for hat and one for helmet. Here's mine:

Watching the first minute had me thinking if I'd worn my FDH backwards all this time! Awesome video, as always.
I didn't see what I was doing until I started editing, and at that point I didn't feel like redoing it. Getting the Rio to play was challenging enough.

LOL. I thought you did that on purpose since you wore it around the same time as when you said you didn't want to do the same review as Ostore did. I had thought they were connected and intentional.

I'll blame Nik. He probably got it, came to the boards talking about this Flight Deck 'Helmet', and no one ever bothered to check after that.

Plus, he was very strong and imposing back then. Posing with his biceps wearing Mars and stories of scaring Hollywood o store employees....

i gasped when you put that half jacket lens iridium side down haha!

but I'm pretty sure the Fast Jackets were released in 2011, correct me if I'm wrong.

Great video though.

Great video! As usual...I have to watch it a couple of times to catch all the detailed information, but it is worth a couple of views. Thanks!

Excellent video! I am used to the thought of the eye jacket, straight jacket and trench coat being too brittle to wear. But I seem to hold a mental block in accepting the same for the topcoat and initial racing jacket. Every now and then, it's just too tempting to wear a topcoat!

Being only 25 this is an era of Oakley that i was unfortunate to miss out on. I have some minutes, xx's and straight jackets but i hve never been able to see pairs like the topcoat and eye jacket, moon ect for myself. When I see video reviews/photos of pairs like this it makes me really want to expand my collection in such a direction but it never happens. This review makes me wish I wouldnt have missed out on the prime years of Oakley. I really enjoy seeing your videos reviews. It helps me to enjoy some pairs that I am not real familiar with.

I missed out too since I didn't start until 2002, but I was intrigued by models before my time. I've slowly picked up several of the pre-1999 bunch, and wore Moons for a while before they broke. My friend wore his Topcoats after finding out about them. I fixed them as much as I could, but they became shelf pairs after that.

Great one !
The add for O-Review at the end is nice too.

Just noticed that in the video proposed at the end this one, there was an authentic Fandango review :
