I haven't been given the OK to post pics just yet, but I'm allowed to share the name at the very least. I'm sure one of you may be able to find a pic somewhere. Is it cool? I think it's more on the "out there" side of things compared to the other Fall releases such as Castel and Hydra. If you like the stylings of Plazma, chances are you'll like the stylings of Kaast as well. The most interesting colourway is Verve Space Dust/Prizm Sapphire. Verve Space Dust will also appear on the Sutor Lite and Plazma will have a Dark Galaxy frame.

Posted on OF now.

What's the timing? Kaast and new Plazma colorways are appealing.

Sucks playing by the rules. I won't moderate if someone sneaks the photos in here too.

Huh, interesting colors. Not sure I'm sold on the shape.

A closer look at the nuanced details:

Verve space dust... that's a must have

I don't mind most of it, but those granny glasses accents on the hinge sort of ruin it for me.

Makes me think of Spider-Man/Venoms eye’s… I kind of dig ‘em:)

pretty interesting model. basically the physiomorphic lens in a frame

I never thought about them having granny glasses cues, but now that it has been mentioned, I can't un-see it. :'-)

I'm just glad Oakley is putting out an attempt at cool eyewear without it being a shield. I mean, I like the Xeus, Kato, Sub Zeroes, M Frame re-releases and Razor Blade (re-releases or kid frames) and I know stuff like the Sutros and Radars are super popular, but there is so many shield releases I can be interested in. I was begging for a cool duel lens release. Or more specifically, more frame. We get Oakley can make lenses; more frame, please!

JP, I agree about the Spider-man/Venom comment! I thought it looked slightly superhero-ish as well (like how the Ducati New Zero reminded me of Soundwave's eyes). As a buyer of the Hideo Kojima x JF Rey Ludens Mask, I'm in that superhero eyewear phase these days.

I think in real life it will look more wild and less granny.

I like these, the lens curves in at the temple creating a side vent like a sports car.

Yeah, I really like the lens in the temple. That's really a cool feature.

Ha Ha!. Like Oak said, now I kinda can't unsee that.

Wouldn't be the first time I didn't like something and then I flip my opinion in person. Look forward to seeing them being worn.

Any idea though why it's "X" Silver? I've seen that frame color used lately on a few models. I just can't seem to figure or find out why it's "X" Silver.

I'd need to try these on and see how they look on me first.

Just another generic piece in my opinion, where’s the O icon you can barely see it & nothing Oakley on the bridge either. Just another Chinese catalog design. Not buying.

pretty interesting model. basically the physiomorphic lens in a frame - obsession

I was thinking the same thing. They cut the lenses out of a Kato and stuck them in a frame. Daddy like

Not only that, but the curves on the frames are sculpted to line up with the lenses (such as with the nose area), and the lens retains the nosebomb hooks, so the nosebombs attach to the lens rather than the frame.

Very awesome attention to detail Oak! Thanks for pointing all of that out - very cool! Almost gives you a new appreciation for this model already.

These things are much better-looking IRL. They are basically using the Kato as the lens blank so the nose piece still attaches to the lens instead of the frame and you can actually see a bit of the “beak” when you look at them up close.

I'm with Defender here. This is definitely one of those frames you have to see/wear in person.

I just got them yesterday! Went with the matte grey smoke prism ruby set up. Definitley one you have to try in person. They really look nice.
