Wouldn't be the first time they printed labels before ultimately deciding

I have no idea if Oakley will ultimately be naming them as BXTR Metal or BXTR C5, but the one I was given recently says “BXTR Metal”:

- Oak

Matte Clear/Prizm Violet... Giddy Up!!!!! That's all me!

Be interesting if they made the St Patrick's day One Evan was wearing

Tomorrow

I like the overall look but the arms throw me. Every time I see the side profile I can't unsee a piece of wood clothes pin.

I basically remove the frames and lenses on all items

Oh, friggin hell! I didn't surprisingly see that until now. Dang it! I can't unsee it!!! Heck!

I do like the clear w/PRIZM violet. I'm always waiting for a clear frame to drop. So this one would be the one for me as of right now. Wood clothes pins and all! LOL

I will say also, that is is me or are we getting a lot of clear frames recently? Some have low-light lenses but as a whole the releases seem to have more clear O-Matter than in years past. Especially this early on in the new model's lifespan.

Agree with the clothes pin. It's pretty bad. I'd consider the Baxter in the Factory Pilot edition, up until the rest of the arm. Why can't they just factory pilot the original version. The O just doesn't suit it, same with the Sutro.

Was it difficult to remove the lens from the frame and the piece at the bottom of the lens?

I wonder when o.com will have the metal version online?

I have to admit. These are pretty nice. They feel a lot more sturdy than the normal version, probably because of the metal arms.

Anybody know if the official site will have the BXTR Metals soon?

I've been wondering the same thing.

I believe BXTR Metal is exclusive to boutique accounts for the time being.

UGH, thanks OB

Undefeated still has them.

In case anyone didn’t already know these are all on Oakley site now. And all coupons work for them as well.

Finally saw a pair of Baxter’s the other day & was rapidly disappointed in them as soon as I touched them. The frames plastic feels like a cheap automotive dash & creaks like mad. The overall shape of the brow seems off too . Too straight , no thought put into it. It definitely wasn’t of Oakley that’s for sure.
